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.

Identification of atropine-and P2X1 receptor antagonist-reistant, neurogenic contractions of the urinary bladder [PDF]
, 2007 Acetylcholine and ATP are excitatory cotransmitters in parasympathetic nerves. We used P2X1 receptor antagonists to further characterize the purinergic component of neurotransmission in isolated detrusor muscle of guinea pig urinary bladder.

Biochemical Pharmacology, 2020 Purines and pyrimidines are indispensable molecules of life; they are fundamental for genetic code and bioenergetics. From the very early life forms purines have acquired the meaning of damage-associated extracellular signaller and purinergic receptors ...

Transient signal generation in a self-assembled nanosystem fueled by ATP [PDF]
, 2015 A fundamental difference exists in the way signal generation is dealt with in natural and synthetic systems. While nature uses the transient activation of signalling pathways to regulate all cellular functions, chemists rely on sensory devices that ...

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 ...

Biosensor measurement of purine release from cerebellar cultures and slices [PDF]
, 2010 We have previously described an action-potential and Ca2+-dependent form of adenosine release in the molecular layer of cerebellar slices. The most likely source of the adenosine is the parallel fibres, the axons of granule cells. Using microelectrode

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 ...
