Enhancing antitumor immunity through the combination of cholesterolized TLR7 agonist liposomes and radiotherapy: a role for IL‐1β and the inflammasome pathway

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Radiotherapy (RT) is a key treatment modality in cancer therapy, utilizing high‐energy radiation to directly kill tumor cells. Recent research has increasingly highlighted RT's potential to indirectly enhance antitumor immunity. However, this immune activation alone often fails to generate sustained systemic antitumor responses.

Toll-Like Receptor 4 Modulates Small Intestine Neuromuscular Function through Nitrergic and Purinergic Pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a pivotal role in the homeostatic microflora-host crosstalk. TLR4-mediated modulation of both motility and enteric neuronal survival has been reported mainly for colon with limited information on the role of ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

P2X1 and P2X5 subunits form the functional P2X receptor in mouse cortical astrocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
ATP plays an important role in signal transduction between neuronal and glial circuits and within glial networks. Here we describe currents activated by ATP in astrocytes acutely isolated from cortical brain slices by non-enzymatic mechanical ...

Inconsistent Transcriptomic Responses to Hexabromocyclododecane in Japanese Quail: A Comparative Analysis of Results From Four Different Study Designs

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Simultaneous quantification of 12 different nucleotides and nucleosides released from renal epithelium and in human urine samples using ion-pair reversed-phase HPLC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Nucleotides and nucleosides are not only involved in cellular metabolism but also act extracellularly via P1 and P2 receptors, to elicit a wide variety of physiological and pathophysiological responses through paracrine and autocrine signalling pathways.

The Aquaporin‐4 Expression and Localization in the Olfactory Epithelium Modulate the Odorant‐Evoked Responses and Olfactory‐Driven Behavior

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aquaporin‐4 (AQP4) is a water‐selective channel expressed in glial cells throughout the central nervous system (CNS). It serves as the primary water channel in the neuropil and plays roles in physiological functions, including regulating water homeostasis by adjusting cell volume and modulating neuronal activity. Different isoforms of AQP4 are

Astroglial CB1 Reveal Sex‐Specific Synaptic Effects of Amphetamine

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
Astroglial CB1R mediates long‐term synaptic plasticity (LTD) in the Nucleus accumbens. Amphetamine saturates adenosine receptors and blocks LTD in males, but not females. Locomotor effects of amphetamine require astroglial CB1R in males, but not in females.

Purinergic receptors in neurogenic processes

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin, 2019
Neurogenesis is a process of generating functional neurons, which occurs during embryonic and adult stages in mammals. While neurogenesis during development phase is characterized by intensive proliferation activity in all regions of the brain to form the architecture and neural function of the nervous system, adult neurogenesis occurs with less ...

Role of astrocyte in neuroinflammation‐induced loss in neuroplasticity and subsequent onset of depression: A systematic review

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Mechanistic crosstalk between microglia and astrocytes in major depressive disorder. Abstract Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a complex psychiatric condition increasingly linked to chronic neuroinflammation, particularly in the context of aging, stress, and systemic comorbidities.
