Background and purpose Adult neurogenesis is a tightly regulated process affected by both cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) and adenosine 2A (A2A) receptors, both of which modulate neural progenitor cell activity. While emerging evidence suggests an interaction between these neuromodulatory systems, the extent and mechanism of their interplay in ...

The P2X receptor mediated regulation of inhibitory synaptic transmission [PDF]
In the central nervous system ATP can be released by neurons and glial cells through similar pathways as other neurotransmitters. Extracellular ATP targets P2X purinoreceptors, causing an influx of Ca2+ ions which transmit very important messages for ...

Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) was the first noxious heat‐sensitive channel discovered. In rodents, its role is robust in the heat response of the cell body of polymodal nociceptors, but surprisingly small in that of the peripheral terminals in the skin.

Extracellular Creatine Kinase May Modulate Purinergic Signalling
It is proposed that cytosolic creatine kinase (CK) released to the extracellular space physiologically or after tissue damage modulates extracellular purinergic signalling. CK catalyses the rapid transfer of ADP into ATP. Extracellular purine nucleotides

Small leucine‐rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) are key modulators of extracellular matrix structure and signaling. Their proteolytic processing by MMPs (Matrix Metalloproteinases), ADAMTS (disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin motifs), and serine proteases generates bioactive fragments that regulate collagen remodeling, inflammation, and ...

Purinergic signalling between axons and microglia
Neurons are delicate elements unable to withstand prolonged exposure to the many toxic factors that gain access to the CNS or which are made by activated leukocytes.

Exercise‐related microRNAs cel‐miR‐249‐3p and cel‐miR‐77‐5p in C. elegans regulate lifespan, fitness, mitochondrial morphology and membrane potential. Although lacking direct mammalian orthologs, H2O2‐induced microRNAs mmu‐miR‐181a‐5p and mmu‐miR‐378a‐3p regulate myogenesis, autophagy, mitochondrial content and respiration in murine myoblasts ...

The role of ectonucleotidases CD39 and CD73 and adenosine signalling in solid organ transplantation
Extracellular adenosine is a potent immunomodulatory molecule that accumulates in states of inflammation. Nucleotides such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) are release from injured and necrotic cells and hydrolysed to ...

Purinergic signalling in the pancreas in health and disease
Pancreatic cells contain specialised stores for ATP. Purinergic receptors (P2 and P1) and ecto-nucleotidases are expressed in both endocrine and exocrine calls, as well as in stromal cells.
