Multiple P2Y receptors couple to calcium-dependent, chloride channels in smooth muscle cells of the rat pulmonary artery [PDF]
, 2005 Uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) and uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) act via P2Y receptors to evoke contraction of rat pulmonary arteries, whilst adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) acts via P2X and P2Y receptors.

Frontiers in Drug Research and Development for Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2017 Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is idiopathic, lifelong, immune-mediated diseases, for which curative therapies are not yet available. In the last 15 years, the introduction of monoclonal antibodies targeting tumor necrosis factor-α, a cytokine playing ...

Biology of the Interleukin-1 Receptor
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1990 The biological effects of the two interleukin-1s on cells of connective tissue origin are mediated by specific cell-surface receptors. Molecular cloning studies have revealed that these receptors are identical in protein sequence to the IL-1 receptors on cells of the T-lymphocyte lineage. The functional interleukin-1 receptor on T-cells and fibroblasts

Characterization of signalling cross-talk between the EP2 and FP receptors in endometrial epithelial cells [PDF]
, 2009 Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that arise from the smooth-muscle uterine cells (myometrium) and are the most common uterine disorder occurring in as many as 30% of women over 35 years of age. Despite their frequent occurrence, the etiology of uterine

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2018 Background Netrin-1 functions largely via combined receptors and downstream effectors. Evidence has shown that astrocytes express netrin-1 receptors, including DCC and UNC5H2. However, whether netrin-1 influences the function of astrocytes was previously

Polyene macrolide antifungal drugs trigger interleukin-1β secretion by activating the NLRP3 inflammasome. [PDF]
, 2011 The use of antimycotic drugs in fungal infections is based on the concept that they suppress fungal growth by a direct killing effect. However, amphotericin and nystatin have been reported to also trigger interleukin-1β (IL-1β) secretion in monocytes but

What Is IL-1 for? The Functions of Interleukin-1 Across Evolution
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Interleukin-1 is a cytokine with potent inflammatory and immune-amplifying effects, mainly produced by macrophages during defensive reactions. In mammals, IL-1 is a superfamily of eleven structurally similar proteins, all involved in inflammation or its ...

Interleukin-1 receptors and receptor antagonist in haemodialysis [PDF]
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 1997 Biological activity of interleukin-1 (IL-1) depends on the number and type of IL-1 receptors on target cells and on the amounts of its naturally occurring inhibitor, the IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra).Expression of IL-1 receptor was studied on the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 20 end-stage renal-disease patients maintained by chronic ...
