In addition to its universally known role in transferring genetic material, DNA nucleotides and nucleosides are regarded as the most ancient form of extracellular signaling molecules. This unique signaling pathway was first reported by Dr.

Purinergic mechanosensory transduction and visceral pain [PDF]
In this review, evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that mechanosensory transduction occurs in tubes and sacs and can initiate visceral pain.

Emerging roles of purinergic signaling in anti-cancer therapy resistance
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 ...

Altered purinergic signaling in uridine adenosine tetraphosphate-induced coronary relaxation in swine with metabolic derangement [PDF]
We previously demonstrated that uridine adenosine tetraphosphate (Up(4)A) induces potent and partially endothelium-dependent relaxation in the healthy porcine coronary microvasculature.

The role of purinergic signaling in microglial responses
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.

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

Na+ absorption by Claudius’ cells is regulated by purinergic signaling in the cochlea [PDF]
Conclusion: Claudius’ cells absorb Na+ through the amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel (ENaC). Transepithelial ion transport through ENaC and possibly a Cl[superscript]- secretory pathway is regulated by P2Y purinergic signaling.

Neonatal Seizures and Purinergic Signalling [PDF]
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 ...
