Purinergic Signaling in Spermatogenesis
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) serves as the essential source of cellular energy. Over the last two decades, however, ATP has also attracted increasing interest as an extracellular signal that activates purinergic plasma membrane receptors of the P2 family.

Purinergic signalling pathway: therapeutic target in ovarian cancer
Egyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics, 2020 Background The lack of early diagnostic tools and the development of chemoresistance have made ovarian cancer (OC) one of the deadliest gynaecological cancers.

Evolutionary origins of taste buds: phylogenetic analysis of purinergic neurotransmission in epithelial chemosensors [PDF]
Open Biology, 2013 Taste buds are gustatory endorgans which use an uncommon purinergic signalling system to transmit information to afferent gustatory nerve fibres. In mammals, ATP is a crucial neurotransmitter released by the taste cells to activate the afferent nerve ...

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.

Purinergic Signaling in Bone [PDF]
Journal of Osteoporosis, 2013 In recent years, it has become apparent that extracellular nucleotides, signalling via P2 receptors, play an important role in the regulation of bone turnover. Furthermore, purinergic signalling has been associated in the pathophysiology of several bone and cartilage diseases, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis and might ...

Delineating Purinergic Signaling in Drosophila
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Simplistic models can aid in discovering what is important in the context of normal and pathological behavior. First recognized as a genetic model more than 100 years ago, to date, fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) still remain an astonishingly good laboratory stand-in for scientists to study development and physiology and to investigate the ...

ATP and Adenosine in the Retina and Retinal Diseases
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Extracellular ATP and its ultimate degradation product adenosine are potent extracellular signaling molecules that elicit a variety of pathophysiological pathways in retina through the activation of P2 and P1 purinoceptors, respectively.
