Purinergic receptors in the endocrine and exocrine pancreas [PDF]

open access: yesPurinergic Signalling, 2007
The pancreas is a complex gland performing both endocrine and exocrine functions. In recent years there has been increasing evidence that both endocrine and exocrine cells possess purinergic receptors, which influence processes such as insulin secretion and epithelial ion transport. Most commonly, these processes have been viewed separately.

Recent advances in the structure, function and regulation of the volume‐regulated anion channels and their role in immunity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The volume‐regulated anion channel (VRAC), composed of leucine‐rich repeat‐containing 8 (LRRC8) proteins, serves both canonical and non‐canonical functions in vertebrate cells. The canonical function of this channel relates to its original description, which is homeostatic regulation of cell volume in response to hypotonic ...

Dual role for pannexin 1 at synapses: regulating functional and morphological plasticity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pannexin 1 (PANX1) regulation of dendritic spines. The postnatal decrease in PANX1 expression could release key spine cytoskeleton‐regulating proteins enabling spine stabilization. Does the physiological decrease in neuronal PANX1 levels across brain development underlie dendritic spine maturation?

Inhibition and potentiation of the exercise pressor reflex by pharmacological modulation of TRPC6 in male rats

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The majority of L4–L5 dorsal root ganglion cells innervating the triceps surae muscles of healthy rats expressed TRPC6 channels. In decerebrated rats, pharmacological inhibition of TRPC6 channels by injection of antagonists (SAR7334 or BI‐749327) into the arterial supply of the triceps surae muscles inhibited the exercise pressor

Sphingosine‐1‐phosphate activates LRRC8 volume‐regulated anion channels through Gβγ signalling

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sphingosine‐1‐phosphate (S1P) binds to Gi protein‐coupled receptor S1PR1. Upon S1PR1 activation, Gβγ is released from the Gαi‐Gβγ heterotrimer, allowing it to recruit phospholipase Cβ (PLCβ) to the plasma membrane. PLCβ cleaves phosphatidylinositol‐4,5‐bisphosphate (PIP2) into inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG).

Evidence for control of cerebral neurovascular function by circulating platelets in healthy older adults

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Epidemiological evidence suggests a link between dementia and cardiovascular health, including the regulation of platelets. To investigate this relationship, we examined how platelet reactivity relates to cerebral neurovascular function and systemic vascular reactivity in healthy older adults.
