Purinergic receptors P2RX4 and P2RX7 in familial multiple sclerosis

Human Mutation, 2017
Genetic variants in the purinergic receptors P2RX4 and P2RX7 have been shown to affect susceptibility to multiple sclerosis (MS). In this study, we set out to evaluate whether rare coding variants of major effect could also be identified in these ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

ESC 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 ...

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

Environmental 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 ...

SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein alters microglial purinergic signaling

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Despite long-term sequelae of COVID-19 are emerging as a substantial public health concern, the mechanism underlying these processes still unclear. Evidence demonstrates that SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein can reach different brain regions, irrespective of ...

A New Vista of Opportunity in Diabetes Management: Natural Product‐Based β‐cell Preservation

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Preserving functional β‐cells via natural products offers promising strategy for diabetes treatment. ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of diabetes is β‐cell failure, in which β‐cells cannot modulate insulin secretion to compensate for escalating insulin resistance, pushing forward disease development.

Purinergic Receptors in Neurological Diseases With Motor Symptoms: Targets for Therapy

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Since proving adenosine triphosphate (ATP) functions as a neurotransmitter in neuron/glia interactions, the purinergic system has been more intensely studied within the scope of the central nervous system.

Tumor‐Regional Immune Microenvironment: A Critical Factor in the Design of Radiotherapy–Immunotherapy Combination Trials

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Clinical trials combining radiotherapy (RT) with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) have shown improved outcomes in only a fraction of patients, and optimal strategies for integrating these modalities remain under intense investigation. With a few exceptions, phase III combination trials have yielded disappointing results.

Extracellular purines, purinergic receptors and tumor growth

Oncogene, 2016
Virtually, all tumor cells as well as all immune cells express plasma membrane receptors for extracellular nucleosides (adenosine) and nucleotides (ATP, ADP, UTP, UDP and sugar UDP).

Pregabalin Efficacy in Treatment of Chronic Neurogenic Cough

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The use of neuromodulators for chronic cough has increased; however, the choice of medication, dosing regimen, and duration are still unclear. This longitudinal study of 95 adults taking pregabalin, 75 mg twice daily, for CNC demonstrated 78% improvement or resolution of cough, 17% unchanged, 1% worse cough, with a mean of 6 weeks of therapy, and only ...

Diabetes‐Induced Dysregulation of Purinergic Signaling in the Bladder Mucosa: Accelerated ATP Hydrolysis and Impaired Adenosine Uptake Promote Underactive Bladder Phenotype

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore molecular mechanisms underlying excessive extracellular adenosine (ADO) accumulation in the bladder lamina propria (LP) of mice with type 2 diabetes (T2D) induced by a high‐fat, high‐sucrose diet (HFHSD), conceivably leading to bladder underactivity.
