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 During Hyperglycemia in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
The activation of purinergic receptors by nucleotides and/or nucleosides plays an important role in the control of vascular function, including modulation of vascular smooth muscle excitability, and vascular reactivity.

Purinergic receptors in airway epithelia [PDF]
Nucleotides and nucleosides within the airway surface liquid regulate mucociliary clearance (MCC) activities, the primary innate defense mechanism that removes foreign particles and pathogens from airway surfaces. Nucleotide and nucleoside actions in the airways are mediated mainly by two purinergic receptor subtypes, the Gq-coupled ATP/UTP-sensing ...

Purinergic receptors in the splanchnic circulation [PDF]
There is considerable evidence that purines are vasoactive molecules involved in the regulation of blood flow. Adenosine is a well known vasodilator that also acts as a modulator of the response to other vasoactive substances. Adenosine exerts its effects by interacting with adenosine receptors.

The Role of Purinergic Signaling in Heart Transplantation
Heart transplantation remains the optimal treatment option for patients with end-stage heart disease. Growing evidence demonstrates that purinergic signals mediated by purine nucleotides and nucleosides play vital roles in heart transplantation ...
