P2X1 and P2X5 subunits form the functional P2X receptor in mouse cortical astrocytes [PDF]
, 2008 ATP plays an important role in signal transduction between neuronal and glial circuits and within glial networks. Here we describe currents activated by ATP in astrocytes acutely isolated from cortical brain slices by non-enzymatic mechanical ...

Purinergic signaling in scarring
The FASEB Journal, 2015 ABSTRACT Adenosine (ADO) and nucleotides such as ATP, ADP, and uridine 5'‐triphosphate (UTP), among others, may serve as extracellular signaling molecules. These mediators activate specific cell‐surface receptors—namely, purinergic 1 and 2 (P1 and P2)—to modulate crucial pathophysiological responses. Regulation of

Mechanisms of sensorineural cell damage, death and survival in the cochlea. [PDF]
, 2015 The majority of acquired hearing loss, including presbycusis, is caused by irreversible damage to the sensorineural tissues of the cochlea. This article reviews the intracellular mechanisms that contribute to sensorineural damage in the cochlea, as well ...

Purinergic signaling in kidney disease [PDF]
Kidney International, 2017 Nucleotides are key subunits for nucleic acids and provide energy for intracellular metabolism. They can also be released from cells to act physiologically as extracellular messengers or pathologically as danger signals. Extracellular nucleotides stimulate membrane receptors in the P2 and P1 family. P2X are ATP-activated cation channels; P2Y and P1 are

Purinergic Signaling During Hyperglycemia in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020 The activation of purinergic receptors by nucleotides and/or nucleosides plays an important role in the control of vascular function, including modulation of vascular smooth muscle excitability, and vascular reactivity.

ER localized bestrophin1 activates Ca2+ dependent ion channels TMEM16A and SK4 [PDF]
, 2009 Bestrophins form Ca2+ activated Cl- channels and regulate intercellular Ca2+ signaling1. We demonstrate that bestrophin 1 is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it physically interacts with stromal interacting molecule 1 (Stim1), the ER ...

Purinergic Regulation of Neutrophil Function
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Purinergic signaling, which utilizes nucleotides (particularly ATP) and adenosine as transmitter molecules, plays an essential role in immune system. In the extracellular compartment, ATP predominantly functions as a pro-inflammatory molecule through ...

Isolation and characterization of Pisum sativum apyrases, PsNTP9 and PsNTP9-DM, cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2019 Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is widely known as a fuel source for many biochemical processes, and to a lesser degree also as a signaling molecule in plants and animals.

MedCommThe gliotransmitter adenosine 5'‐triphosphate (ATP) and its enzymatic degradation product adenosine play a major role in orchestrating in the hippocampus cognitive and affective functions via P2 purinoceptors (P2X, P2Y) and P1 adenosine receptors (A1 ...

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]
, 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).
