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 ...

Deficiency of the purinergic receptor 2X7 attenuates nonalcoholic steatohepatitis induced by high-fat diet. possible role of the NLRP3 Inflammasome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Molecular mechanisms driving transition from simple steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a critical step in the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to cirrhosis, are poorly defined. This study aimed at investigating the

Purinergic receptor mediated calcium signalling in urothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Non-neuronal ATP released from the urothelium in response to bladder stretch is a key modulator of bladder mechanosensation. Whilst non-neuronal ATP acts on the underlying bladder afferent nerves to facilitate sensation, there is also the potential for ...

Synergistic Effect of Hesperidin, Acarbose, and Exercise Combination on Neuroinflammation and Neurochemical Alterations in Diabetic Encephalopathy Rat Model

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Diabetic encephalopathy (DME) impairs neurobehavior, neurochemicals, oxidative stress, and inflammation. This study evaluated the effects of hesperidin (HSP), exercise (EX), and acarbose (ACA) alone or combined on diabetic rats. Treatments reduced AChE, BChE, ACE, arginase, ATPDase, 5′‐nucleotidase, ADA, LDH, TBARS, and ROS, while increasing IL‐10, SOD,

Activation of Extracellular-signal Regulated Kinase (ERK1/2) by Fluid Shear is Ca\u3csup\u3e2+\u3c/sup\u3e- and ATP-dependent in MC3T3-E1 Osteoblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
To determine the role of Ca2+ signaling in activation of the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathway, we subjected MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblastic cells to inhibitors of Ca2+ signaling during application of fluid shear stress (FSS).

Purinergic receptors on blood platelets

open access: yesPlatelets, 1996
Extracellular adenine nucleotides interact with P2 purinergic receptors to regulate a broad range of physiological processes among which platelet aggregation P2 purinoceptors were divided into two main groups: the G-protein coupled receptor or 'metabotropic' superfamily termed P2Y and the ligand-gated ion channel or 'ionotropic receptor' superfamily ...

Mechanisms of spinal glial activation in chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy: Focus on microglia and astrocytes

open access: yesIbrain, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) remains a major clinical challenge, with central sensitization considered an important pathological mechanism in its occurrence and persistence. This review focuses on spinal astrocytes and microglia, systematically summarizing the pathological mechanisms of spinal glial cells involved in CIPN caused by

Biosensor measurement of purine release from cerebellar cultures and slices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We have previously described an action-potential and Ca2+-dependent form of adenosine release in the molecular layer of cerebellar slices. The most likely source of the adenosine is the parallel fibres, the axons of granule cells. Using microelectrode

What Role Does the Central Nervous System Play in Refractory LUTS, and What Are the Therapeutic Implications? ICI‐RS 2025

open access: yesNeurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims While many patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) improve by treating peripheral causes, a substantial proportion continue to experience symptoms despite apparently successful interventions. Central nervous system (CNS) mechanisms could potentially contribute to persisting symptoms after the initial peripheral cause has been ...

Macrophage centripetal migration drives spontaneous healing process after spinal cord injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) brings numerous inflammatory cells, including macrophages, from the circulating blood to lesions, but pathophysiological impact resulting from spatiotemporal dynamics of macrophages is unknown.
