Purinergic receptors in cognitive disturbances

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
Purinergic receptors (Rs) of the ATP/ADP, UTP/UDP (P2X, P2Y) and adenosine (A1, A2A)-sensitive classes broadly interfere with cognitive processes both under quasi normal and disease conditions.

Purinergic Receptors in Ocular Inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2014
Inflammation is a complex process that implies the interaction between cells and molecular mediators, which, when not properly “tuned,” can lead to disease.

Purinergic signaling in the male reproductive tract

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Purinergic receptors are ubiquitously expressed throughout the body and they participate in the autocrine and paracrine regulation of cell function during normal physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

Extracellular ATP released by osteoblasts is a key local inhibitor of bone mineralisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Previous studies have shown that exogenous ATP (>1µM) prevents bone formation in vitro by blocking mineralisation of the collagenous matrix. This effect is thought to be mediated via both P2 receptor-dependent pathways and a receptor-independent ...

Purinergic Signaling in Liver Pathophysiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Extracellular nucleosides and nucleotides activate a group of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) known as purinergic receptors, comprising adenosine and P2Y receptors. Furthermore, purinergic P2X ion channels are activated by ATP.

Purinergic P2 Receptors: Novel Mediators of Mechanotransduction

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Mechanosensing and mechanotransduction are vital processes in mechanobiology and play critical roles in regulating cellular behavior and fate. There is increasing evidence that purinergic P2 receptors, members of the purinergic family, play a crucial ...

Painful Purinergic Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2008
Multiple P2 receptor-mediated mechanisms exist by which ATP can alter nociceptive sensitivity following tissue injury. Evidence from a variety of experimental strategies, including genetic disruption studies and the development of selective antagonists, has indicated that the activation of P2X receptor subtypes, including P2X(3), P2X(2/3), P2X(4) and ...

Purine and purinergic receptors [PDF]

open access: goldBrain and Neuroscience Advances, 2018
Adenosine 5′-triphosphate acts as an extracellular signalling molecule (purinergic signalling), as well as an intracellular energy source. Adenosine 5′-triphosphate receptors have been cloned and characterised. P1 receptors are selective for adenosine, a breakdown product of adenosine 5′-triphosphate after degradation by ectonucleotidases.
