Purinergic Signaling in Spermatogenesis
Frontiers 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.

Purinergic signalling in bone [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012 Purinergic signaling in bone was first proposed in the early 1990s with the observation that extracellular ATP could modulate events crucial to the normal functioning of bone cells. Since then the expression of nearly all the P2Y and P2X receptors by osteoblasts and osteoclasts has been reported, mediating multiple processes including cell ...

Purinergic Signalling: Pathophysiological Roles
Japanese Journal of Pharmacology, 1998 In this review, after a summary of the history and current status of the receptors involved in purinergic signalling, we focus on the distribution and physiological roles of purines and pyrimidines in both short-term events such as neurotransmission, exocrine and endocrine secretion and regulation of immune cell function, and long-term events such as ...

Purinergic Signaling in Neuroinflammation [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 ATP is stored in millimolar concentrations within the intracellular medium but may be released to extracellular sites either through the damaged plasma membrane or by means of various transporters [...]

Delineating Purinergic Signaling in Drosophila. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2022 Simplistic models can aid in discovering what is important in the context of normal and pathological behavior. First recognized as a genetic model more than 100 years ago, to date, fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) still remain an astonishingly good laboratory stand-in for scientists to study development and physiology and to investigate the ...

The Role of Microglial Purinergic Receptors in Pain Signaling
Molecules, 2022 Pain is an essential modality of sensation in the body. Purinergic signaling plays an important role in nociceptive pain transmission, under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions, and is important for communication between both neuronal ...

Purinergic Signaling during Inflammation [PDF]
New England Journal of Medicine, 2012 Receptors for ATP and ADP and adenosine exert various effects. ATP and ADP signaling is mainly proinflammatory, and adenosine signaling is mainly antiinflammatory. Receptors for these nucleosides are emerging as therapeutic targets in a number of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

Co-Expression of Wild-Type P2X7R with Gln460Arg Variant Alters Receptor Function [PDF]
, 2016 The P2X7 receptor is a member of the P2X family of ligand-gated ion channels. A single-nucleotide polymorphism leading to a glutamine (Gln) by arginine (Arg) substitution at codon 460 of the purinergic P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) has been associated with mood ...

Mitochondria Synergize With P2 Receptors to Regulate Human T Cell Function
Frontiers 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.
