Control of Gut Inflammation by Modulation of Purinergic Signaling
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a serious inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract. Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are two of the most common IBD manifestations and are both associated with unfettered inflammation, often

Purinergic signalling in osteoblasts
The skeleton is maintained throughout life via the finely tuned actions of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, with disruption in this balance eventually leading to bone disease. The exact mechanisms balancing these actions are not fully known, although several regulatory systems are known to be involved.

Sympathetic nerve-derived ATP regulates renal medullary vasa recta diameter via pericyte cells: a role for regulating medullary blood flow? [PDF]
Pericyte cells are now known to be a novel locus of blood flow control, being able to regulate capillary diameter via their unique morphology and expression of contractile proteins.

Y332D, a bispecific antibody that simultaneously blockades VEGF and TGF‐β, counteracted negative RT effects that are attributed to the upregulation of TGF‐β and VEGF, as well as further enhanced the immunostimulatory effects of RT, thereby reprograming the TME from immune “cold” to inflamed state and forming an effective in‐situ vaccine that eradicate ...

The 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 ...

ENTPDase inhibitors: therapeutic potential in infectious, inflammatory, and neuroinflammatory diseases [PDF]
Ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases (ENTPDases), members of the cluster of differentiation 39 (CD39) family, are key regulators of purinergic signaling through the hydrolysis of tri and diphosphate nucleotides.

P2 Purinergic Signaling in the Distal Lung in Health and Disease
The distal lung provides an intricate structure for gas exchange in mammalian lungs. Efficient gas exchange depends on the functional integrity of lung alveoli.

Blood DDIT4 and TRIM13 Transcript Levels Mark the Early Stages of Machado–Joseph Disease
Objective An abundance of select transcripts and proteins has been found to be dysregulated in blood samples of Machado–Joseph disease (MJD) carriers. Here, we aimed to: (1) identify blood transcriptional changes as potential biomarkers of MJD; (2) correlate levels of differentially expressed blood transcripts with MJD carriers features; and (3 ...

Purinergic Signaling: Impact of GPCR Structures on Rational Drug Design
The purinergic signaling system includes membrane‐bound receptors for extracellular purines and pyrimidines, and enzymes/transporters that regulate receptor activation by endogenous agonists.
