Peripheral and Spinal Mechanisms Involved in Electro-Acupuncture Therapy for Visceral Hypersensitivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
One of the important characteristic features of clinically significant gastrointestinal disorders is visceral hypersensitivity (VH). Pain sensitization or VH is a big challenge for clinicians and becomes a very thorny work in clinical practices; the ...

Association of the ADORA2A receptor and CD73 polymorphisms with epilepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms are connected with the risk of epilepsy on occurrence, progress, and the individual response to drugs. Progress in genomic technology is exposing the complex genetic architecture of epilepsy.

Purinergic signalling in host innate immune defence against intracellular pathogens.

open access: yesBiochemical Pharmacology, 2021
Purinergic signalling is an evolutionarily conserved signalling pathway mediated by extracellular nucleotides and nucleosides. Tri- and diphosphonucleotides released from host cells during intracellular pathogen infections activate plasma membrane ...

Metabolic Changes Induced by Purinergic Signaling: Role in Food Intake

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
The purinergic signalling has a well-established role in the regulation of energy homeostasis, but there is growing evidence of its implication in the control of food intake.

Astrocytes in human central nervous system diseases: a frontier for new therapies

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023
Astroglia are a broad class of neural parenchymal cells primarily dedicated to homoeostasis and defence of the central nervous system (CNS). Astroglia contribute to the pathophysiology of all neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders in ways that can ...

Extracellular ATP released by osteoblasts is a key local inhibitor of bone mineralisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Previous studies have shown that exogenous ATP (>1µM) prevents bone formation in vitro by blocking mineralisation of the collagenous matrix. This effect is thought to be mediated via both P2 receptor-dependent pathways and a receptor-independent ...

Purinergic Signaling during Inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2012
Receptors for ATP and ADP and adenosine exert various effects. ATP and ADP signaling is mainly proinflammatory, and adenosine signaling is mainly antiinflammatory. Receptors for these nucleosides are emerging as therapeutic targets in a number of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
