Cannabinoid and adenosine A2A receptor crosstalk regulates postnatal and adult hippocampal neurogenesis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yes
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 ...

Neuronal and ion channel mechanisms of noxious heat sensing in mammals: A puzzle of sensory physiology and pharmacology

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
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.

Nucleotide homeostasis and purinergic nociceptive signaling in rat meninges in migraine-like conditions

open access: yes, 2020
© 2016, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.Extracellular ATP is suspected to contribute to migraine pain but regulatory mechanisms controlling pro-nociceptive purinergic mechanisms in the meninges remain unknown.

Extracellular Creatine Kinase May Modulate Purinergic Signalling

open access: yes, 2019
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

Interactions between small leucine‐rich proteoglycans and proteases: implications for tissue homeostasis and pathology

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
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

open access: yes, 2006
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 in Caenorhabditis elegans regulate calcium homeostasis and mitochondrial dynamics: Conserved pathways, divergent microRNAs

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
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

open access: yes, 2012
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.
