Purinergic signalling pathway: therapeutic target in ovarian cancer

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics, 2020
Background The lack of early diagnostic tools and the development of chemoresistance have made ovarian cancer (OC) one of the deadliest gynaecological cancers.

Purinergic Receptor Expression and Potential Association with Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cell Development

open access: yesCell Journal, 2017
Objective: Due to recent progress in production of human embryonic stem cell-derived oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (hESC-OPCs) for ameliorating myelin disease such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and the role of purinergic signaling in OPCs development,

Involvement of P2Y1, P2Y6, A1 and A2A Receptors in the Purinergic Inhibition of NMDA-Evoked Noradrenaline Release in the Rat Brain Cortex

open access: yesCells, 2023
In the cerebral cortex, glutamate activates NMDA receptors (NMDARs), localized in noradrenergic neurons, inducing noradrenaline release that may have a permissive effect on glutamatergic transmission, and therefore, on the modulation of long-term ...

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.

Purinergic receptors in airway epithelia [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Pharmacology, 2009
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 ...

Exocytosis of ATP from astrocytes modulates phasic and tonic inhibition in the neocortex. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2014
Communication between neuronal and glial cells is important for many brain functions. Astrocytes can modulate synaptic strength via Ca(2+)-stimulated release of various gliotransmitters, including glutamate and ATP.

Activity-dependent release of Adenosine: a critical re-evaluation of mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Adenosine is perhaps the most important and universal modulator in the brain. The current consensus is that it is primarily produced in the extracellular space from the breakdown of previously released ATP.

Mitochondria Synergize With P2 Receptors to Regulate Human T Cell Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Intracellular ATP is the universal energy carrier that fuels many cellular processes. However, immune cells can also release a portion of their ATP into the extracellular space.

Purinergic Signaling in Spermatogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) serves as the essential source of cellular energy. Over the last two decades, however, ATP has also attracted increasing interest as an extracellular signal that activates purinergic plasma membrane receptors of the P2 family.

Dual control of vascular tone and remodelling by ATP released from nerves and endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Purinergic signalling is important both in short-term control of vascular tone and in longer-term control of cell proliferation, migration and death involved in vascular remodelling.
