Agonists and Antagonists for Purinergic Receptors.

Methods in molecular biology, 2020
Membrane receptors that are activated by the purine nucleoside adenosine (adenosine receptors) or by purine or pyrimidine nucleotides (P2Y and P2X receptors) transduce extracellular signals to the cytosol. They play important roles in physiology and disease. The G protein-coupled adenosine receptors comprise four subtypes: A1, A2A, A2B, and A3.

Purinergic receptors modulators: An emerging pharmacological tool for disease management

Medicinal research reviews (Print), 2022
Purinergic signaling is mediated through extracellular nucleotides (adenosine 5′‐triphosphate, uridine‐5'‐triphosphate, adenosine diphosphate, uridine‐5'‐diphosphate, and adenosine) that serve as signaling molecules.

Purinergic receptors in psychiatric disorders

Neuropharmacology, 2016
Psychiatric disorders describe different mental or behavioral patterns, causing suffering or poor coping of ordinary life with manifold presentations. Multifactorial processes can contribute to their development and progression. Purinergic neurotransmission and neuromodulation in the brain have attracted increasing therapeutic interest in the field of ...

Platelet purinergic receptors

Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2003
Activation of P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors, through secreted ADP that is stimulated by agonists such as thrombin, thromboxane and collagen, is a major mechanism of platelet activation. P2X(1) receptors also participate in platelet shape change and potentiation of calcium mobilization.

ATP induces contraction of cultured brain capillary pericytes, via activation of P2Y type purinergic receptors.

American Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2020
Brain capillary pericytes have been suggested to play a role in the regulation of cerebral blood-flow under physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

Bladder Purinergic Receptorsa

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1990
In rabbits the contractile response of the urinary bladder is only partially due to cholinergic innervation since atropine does not completely block neuronally mediated contractions. In the human bladder this atropine resistance is controversial with some reporting atropine resistance in vitro while others have stated that the atropine resistance is ...

Purinergic receptors in multiple sclerosis pathogenesis

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin, 2019
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, characterized by the presence of focal lesions in white and grey matter with peripheral immune cells infiltration. Purinergic receptors control immune cell function as well as neuronal and oligodendroglial survival, and the activation of astrocytes ...

Signaling at Purinergic P2X Receptors

Annual Review of Physiology, 2009
P2X receptors are membrane cation channels gated by extracellular ATP. Seven P2X receptor subunits (P2X1-7) are widely distributed in excitable and nonexcitable cells of vertebrates. They play key roles in inter alia afferent signaling (including pain), regulation of renal blood flow, vascular endothelium, and inflammatory responses.
