Role of purinergic receptors in the activation of human airway smooth muscle cells by the antimicrobial peptide LL-37

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2006
Inflammatory cells that infiltrate and surround the airway smooth muscle (ASM) layer express antimicrobial peptides including the cathelicidin LL-37.

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

The glia‐immune network: Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes as microglial co‐ordinators in health and disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The glia‐immune network involves the communication(s) of glia via immune signalling pathways. In neuro‐homeostasis these pathways have been shown to modulate key processes such as synaptic pruning and myelination. The dynamics of these processes is critical to CNS function.

Anatomical and functional mapping of vagal nociceptive sensory nerve subsets innervating the mouse lower airways by intersectional genetics

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We used an intersectional approach with recombinase‐expressing mice and adeno‐associated virus to map and modulate distinct nociceptive afferents in the vagal ganglia. TRPV1+P2X2+ neurons resided in the nodose ganglion (N), innervated the lungs (many projected into the alveoli) but not the trachea, and projected to the nucleus ...

Extracellular purinergic signaling in pancreas

open access: yesThe Journal of Medical Investigation, 2009
recognized as important extracellular signaling molecules in many biological systems (1). In epithelia, ATP signaling is thought to regulate fluid transport, and exocrine glands are one of the first epithelia where the effect of ATP on ion channels and Ca signaling was observed (2, 3). Nevertheless, many steps in ATP signaling, also known as purinergic

Energetic microdomains and the vascular control of neuronal and muscle excitability: Toward a unified model

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability.
