The Role of Purinergic Receptors in Cancer-Induced Bone Pain

Journal of Osteoporosis, 2012
Cancer-induced bone pain severely compromises the quality of life of many patients suffering from bone metastasis, as current therapies leave some patients with inadequate pain relief.

The glia‐immune network: Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes as microglial co‐ordinators in health and disease

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The glia‐immune network involves the communication(s) of glia via immune signalling pathways. In neuro‐homeostasis these pathways have been shown to modulate key processes such as synaptic pruning and myelination. The dynamics of these processes is critical to CNS function.

Inhibition of REV-ERBs stimulates microglial amyloid-beta clearance and reduces amyloid plaque deposition in the 5XFAD mouse model of Alzheimer\u27s disease [PDF]

, 2020
A promising new therapeutic target for the treatment of Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD) is the circadian system. Although patients with AD are known to have abnormal circadian rhythms and suffer sleep disturbances, the role of the molecular clock in ...

The Role of Peripheral N‐Methyl‐D‐Asparate (NMDA) Receptors in Itch and Pain: A Narrative Review

European Journal of Pain, Volume 29, Issue 7, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective NMDA receptors, predominantly located in the central nervous system and known for their roles in synaptic plasticity and central sensitisation of pain and itch, are also expressed in peripheral sensory neurons. Emerging evidence suggests that peripheral NMDA receptors contribute to pathological pain and potentially ...

The Aquaporin‐4 Expression and Localization in the Olfactory Epithelium Modulate the Odorant‐Evoked Responses and Olfactory‐Driven Behavior

Glia, Volume 73, Issue 8, Page 1642-1659, August 2025.
Main Points AQP4ex and OAP‐forming AQP4M23 are expressed in non‐neuronal cells of the olfactory epithelium. AQP4ex‐KO and OAP‐null mice show reduced cell density, including OSNs, and impaired odor responses and behavior, with AQP4ex emerging as key regulator.

Astroglial CB1 Reveal Sex‐Specific Synaptic Effects of Amphetamine

Glia, Volume 73, Issue 8, Page 1673-1691, August 2025.
Main Points Astroglial CB1 mediate long‐term depression in the NAc through purine release. Amphetamine occludes LTD in male mice by inducing the saturation of A1 receptors. Astroglial CB1 mediate behavioral amphetamine effects in males, but not in females.

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction in Ischaemic Heart Disease: Lessons From Large Animal Models

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 137, Issue 2, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The coronary microvasculature is principally responsible for matching coronary blood flow to myocardial demand of oxygen and nutrients. Short‐term control of coronary blood flow is achieved via alterations in coronary microvascular tone, whereas long‐term control of coronary flow also involves remodelling of the coronary microvasculature ...

Nimodipine reduces microglial activation in vitro as evidenced by morphological phenotype, phagocytic activity and high‐throughput RNA sequencing

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 16, Page 3800-3817, August 2025.
Background and Purpose Nimodipine, an L‐type voltage‐gated calcium channel blocker, is an approved cerebral vasorelaxant. We hypothesized that nimodipine attenuates the pro‐inflammatory shift in microglial phenotypes. Here, we analysed the effects of nimodipine on morphological and functional microglial phenotypes as well as their transcriptomic ...

ROLE OF PURINERGIC RECEPTORS IN IMMUNE RESPONSE

Journal of microbiology, epidemiology and immunobiology, 2016
Purine receptors are located on immune and somatic cells of animal and human organisms. Summation of signals from purine and TOLL-like receptors takes place on the level of inflammasome formation and results in summation of the first and second signals of innate immunity.
