Purinergic signalling: past, present and future [PDF]

, 2009
The discovery of non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic neurotransmission in the gut and bladder in the early 1960's is described as well as the identification of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) as a transmitter in these nerves in the early 1970's.

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 ...

Gout and NLRP3 inflammasome biology

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
This review describes the three broad stages of acute inflammation in the context of gout: initiation, leucocyte mobilisation, and self‐resolution. A typical case of a gout flare is presented. The role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in acute monosodium urate crystal‐induced inflammation is reviewed in detail.

ALS: Focus on purinergic signalling

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2011
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is one of the most common neuromuscular diseases. It is devastating and fatal, causing progressive paralysis of all voluntary muscles and eventually death, while sparing cognitive functions. A pathological hallmark of ALS is neuroinflammation mediated by non-neuronal cells in the nervous system, such as microglia and

Purinergic Signalling: Therapeutic Developments [PDF]

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
Purinergic signalling, i.e., the role of nucleotides as extracellular signalling molecules, was proposed in 1972. However, this concept was not well accepted until the early 1990's when receptor subtypes for purines and pyrimidines were cloned and characterised, which includes four subtypes of the P1 (adenosine) receptor, seven subtypes of P2X ion ...

Purinergic signalling in systemic sclerosis

Rheumatology, 2021
Abstract SSc is a chronic autoimmune rheumatic disease that involves numerous organs and presents major management challenges. The histopathologic hallmarks of SSc include vasculopathy, fibrosis and autoimmune phenomena involving both innate and adaptive immune systems.

Simultaneous quantification of 12 different nucleotides and nucleosides released from renal epithelium and in human urine samples using ion-pair reversed-phase HPLC [PDF]

, 2012
Nucleotides and nucleosides are not only involved in cellular metabolism but also act extracellularly via P1 and P2 receptors, to elicit a wide variety of physiological and pathophysiological responses through paracrine and autocrine signalling pathways.

Exosome as bioactive nanovesicle for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in periodontitis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the mechanism that exosomes participate in the pathogenesis of periodontitis and their potential as biomarkers for early diagnosis and summarizes the application of cell‐ or plant‐derived exosomes or engineered exosomes in periodontitis or periodontal regeneration while proposing the perspective of translational application of ...

Membrane compartments and purinergic signalling [PDF]

The FEBS Journal, 2008
Evolution has led to efficient cooperation between processes at the cellular level. This embodies the combinatorial complexity of transferring information through nucleic acids and proteins, and information processing that involves the diffusion of primary ligands and ⁄or second messengers.
