Purinergic receptors expressed in human skeletal muscle fibres

, 2011
Purinergic receptors are present in most tissues and thought to be involved in various signalling pathways, including neural signalling, cell metabolism and local regulation of the microcirculation in skeletal muscles. The present study aims to determine

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2579-2614, September 2026.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Acute caffeine treatment protects the developing retina from ischemia‐induced cell death

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 9, Page 1726-1740, September 2026.
Caffeine reduces cell death in the developing retina under ischemia (OGD). This effect does not involve BDNF upregulation or antioxidant pathways (NRF2/VEGF). Neuroprotection occurs mainly through adenosine A2A receptor antagonism, decreasing glutamate release and excitotoxicity, highlighting caffeine's potential as an acute neuroprotective agent in ...

Microplastics‐Induced Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis Accelerates Alzheimer's‐Like Pathology and Cognitive Decline via the Gut–Brain Axis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 50, 7 September 2026.
Microplastics (MPs) breach the gut‐brain axis by triggering taurine‐depleting microbiota dysbiosis that accelerates Alzheimer‐like pathology in 5XFAD mice. Taurine supplementation normalizes autophagy, microglial quiescence, and cognition, and plasma taurine inversely tracks cognitive decline in ADNI participants, revealing a readily translatable ...

PHARMACOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF P2X1 AND P2X3 PURINERGIC RECEPTORS IN BOVINE CHONDROCYTES AND FIBROBLAST-LIKE SYNOVIOCYTES

, 2009
Extracellular nucleotides, acting through purinergic receptors, play a central role in the regulation of bone and cartilage metabolism. Chondrocytes within articular cartilage are responsible for the synthesis and degradation of the extracellular matrix,

Spatial Omics in High‐Grade Gliomas: Mapping Immune–Tumor Niches for Precision Therapy

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐grade gliomas (HGGs), particularly glioblastoma (GBM), remain among the most lethal human cancers despite decades of molecular profiling and therapeutic innovation. A primary reason for treatment failure is that HGG biology is spatial: malignant cell states, immune suppression, metabolic stress, and therapeutic resistance are organized ...

Reactive Oxygen Species in Breast Cancer: From Redox Dysregulation to ROS‐Responsive Therapeutics

Cell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed malignancy among women worldwide, with 2.3 million new cases and approximately 670,000 deaths reported in 2022 alone. Despite advances in therapy, metastasis and acquired drug resistance remain major clinical challenges.

Cancer‐related pain: A bidirectional modulator of cancer progression

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
CRP and tumour progression engage in a dynamic, bidirectional circuit mediated by multiple mechanisms involving neuroimmunology and cancer ‐neuroscience. Analgesic interventions may affect tumour progression, while anticancer therapies can influence pain. Targeting pain in cancer may have promising therapeutic value in cancer progression.

Mechanisms and Predisposing Conditions for Statin‐Induced New‐Onset Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Paradox Relative to Their Pleiotropic Metabolic Effects

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.
The primary function of statins is to inhibit cholesterol synthesis, which contributes to their antidiabetic effects. However, the majority of the diabetic effects of statins are due to inhibition of isoprenoid synthesis. Atorvastatin, simvastatin and rosuvastatin possess the most pronounced diabetogenic properties. In contrast, lovastatin, fluvastatin,

P2X7 Receptor Modulation of Visual Responses in the Retina [PDF]

, 2015
Adenosine 5’ triphosphate (ATP)-gated P2X7 receptors (P2X7Rs) are known to act as conduits for photoreceptor and retinal ganglion cell (RGC) damage, consequences of various neurodegenerative conditions within the visual pathway. Growing evidence supports
