Emerging roles of purinergic signaling in anti-cancer therapy resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Cancer is a complex disease with a rapid growing incidence and often characterized by a poor prognosis. Although impressive advances have been made in cancer treatments, resistance to therapy remains a critical obstacle for the improvement of patients ...

Purinergic mechanosensory transduction and visceral pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this review, evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that mechanosensory transduction occurs in tubes and sacs and can initiate visceral pain.

Purines as potential morphogens during embryonic development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Components of purinergic signalling are expressed in the early embryo raising the possibility that ATP, ADP and adenosine may contribute to the mechanisms of embryonic development.

Purinergic Signaling in the Pathophysiology and Treatment of Huntington’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a devastating, progressive, and fatal neurodegenerative disorder inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. This condition is characterized by motor dysfunction (chorea in the early stage, followed by bradykinesia, dystonia ...

The role of purinergic signaling in microglial responses

open access: yesStress and Brain, 2021
Microglia, the primary immune cells in the central nervous system (CNS), are key to the maintenance of homeostasis in the brain parenchyma. In the intact brain, microglia continuously survey the microenvironment with ramified processes.

Neonatal Seizures and Purinergic Signalling [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Neonatal seizures are one of the most common comorbidities of neonatal encephalopathy, with seizures aggravating acute injury and clinical outcomes. Current treatment can control early life seizures; however, a high level of pharmacoresistance remains among infants, with increasing evidence suggesting current anti-seizure medication potentiating brain ...

Integrating UHPLC-MS/MS quantitative analysis and exogenous purine supplementation to elucidate the antidepressant mechanism of Chaigui granules by regulating purine metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Pharmaceutical Analysis, 2023
Chaigui granules (CG) are a compound composed of six herbal medicines with significant antidepressant effects. However, the antidepressant mechanism of CG remains unclear. In the present study, we attempted to elucidate the antidepressant mechanism of CG

Altered purinergic signaling in uridine adenosine tetraphosphate-induced coronary relaxation in swine with metabolic derangement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
We previously demonstrated that uridine adenosine tetraphosphate (Up(4)A) induces potent and partially endothelium-dependent relaxation in the healthy porcine coronary microvasculature.

Purinergic Regulation of Neutrophil Function

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...
