Painful Purinergic Receptors [PDF]
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 ...

Purinergic signaling in the peripheral vestibular system [PDF]
The inner ear comprises the cochlea and vestibular system, which detect sound and acceleration stimulation, respectively. The function of the inner ear is regulated by ion transport activity among sensory epithelial cells, neuronal cells, non-sensory ...

Purinergic Receptors: Elucidating the Role of these Immune Mediators in HIV-1 Fusion
Purinergic receptors are inflammatory mediators activated by extracellular nucleotides released by dying or injured cells. Several studies have described an important role for these receptors in HIV-1 entry, particularly regarding their activity on HIV-1

The relationship between P2X4 and P2X7: a physiologically important interaction? [PDF]
Purinergic signaling within the kidney is becoming an important focus in the study of renal health and disease. The effectors of ATP signaling, the P2Y and P2X receptors, are expressed to varying extents in and along the nephron.

Purinergic signaling in schistosomal infection
Human schistosomiasis is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by blood fluke worms belonging to the genus Schistosoma. Health metrics indicate that the disease is related to an elevated number of years lost-to-disability and years lost-to-life ...

Emerging key roles for P2X receptors in the kidney [PDF]
P2X ionotropic non-selective cation channels are expressed throughout the kidney and are activated in a paracrine or autocrine manner following the binding of extracellular ATP and related extracellular nucleotides.
