Extracellular purinergic signaling in pancreas

open access: yesThe 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

TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains in the regulation of vascular function

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains. Calcium influx or calcium release from the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) activates TMEM16A channels through interactions with regulatory proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells or endothelial cells. TMEM16A channel activation drives chloride efflux,

Age- and Experience-Related Plasticity of ATP-Mediated Signaling in the Neocortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
There is growing recognition of the important role of interaction between neurons and glial cells for brain longevity. The extracellular ATP have been shown to bring significant contribution into bi-directional glia-neuron communications, in particular ...

Anatomical and functional mapping of vagal nociceptive sensory nerve subsets innervating the mouse lower airways by intersectional genetics

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Energetic microdomains and the vascular control of neuronal and muscle excitability: Toward a unified model

open access: yesThe 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.

Purinergic Signaling During Immune Cell Trafficking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Migration and positioning of immune cells is fundamental for their differentiation and recruitment at sites of infection. Besides the fundamental role played by chemokines and their receptors, recent studies demonstrate that a complex network of ...

Trichomoniasis immunity and the involvement of the purinergic signaling

open access: yesBiomedical 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 ...

High‐altitude headache: Insights into pathophysiology and potential treatment implications

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude headache occurs during prolonged exposure to low oxygen, such as during ascent to high altitude. Several risk factors increase its likelihood, with the degree of hypoxia, often driven by rapid ascent to greater altitudes, being the most prominent factor.

Purinergic signaling, DAMPs, and inflammation

open access: yes, 2020
Danger sensing is one of the most fundamental evolutionary features enabling multicellular organisms to perceive potential threats, escape from risky situations, fight actual intruders, and repair damage.
