Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Trichomoniasis immunity and the involvement of the purinergic signaling
Biomedical Journal, 2016 Innate and adaptive immunity play a significant role in trichomoniasis, the most common non-viral sexually transmitted disease worldwide. In the urogenital tract, innate immunity is accomplished by a defense physical barrier constituted by epithelial ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The glia‐immune network involves the communication(s) of glia via immune signalling pathways. In neuro‐homeostasis these pathways have been shown to modulate key processes such as synaptic pruning and myelination. The dynamics of these processes is critical to CNS function.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend We used an intersectional approach with recombinase‐expressing mice and adeno‐associated virus to map and modulate distinct nociceptive afferents in the vagal ganglia. TRPV1+P2X2+ neurons resided in the nodose ganglion (N), innervated the lungs (many projected into the alveoli) but not the trachea, and projected to the nucleus ...

Extracellular purinergic signaling in pancreas
The Journal of Medical Investigation, 2009 recognized as important extracellular signaling molecules in many biological systems (1). In epithelia, ATP signaling is thought to regulate fluid transport, and exocrine glands are one of the first epithelia where the effect of ATP on ion channels and Ca signaling was observed (2, 3). Nevertheless, many steps in ATP signaling, also known as purinergic

Purinergic Signaling in Ovarian Carcinoma [PDF]
Advanced Pharmaceutical BulletinOvarian carcinoma (OC) is the most lethal gynecological cancer worldwide. Around 95% of patients exhibit recurrence five years after treatment; 80% experience recurrence within 18 months after first-line treatment, and progression-free survival rates ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability.
