Energetic microdomains and the vascular control of neuronal and muscle excitability: Toward a unified model

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability.

High‐altitude headache: Insights into pathophysiology and potential treatment implications

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude headache occurs during prolonged exposure to low oxygen, such as during ascent to high altitude. Several risk factors increase its likelihood, with the degree of hypoxia, often driven by rapid ascent to greater altitudes, being the most prominent factor.

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,

Parasympathetic overdrive as a cause of overactive bladder in a high‐fat‐diet‐induced obesity mouse model

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are well‐known major risk factors for overactive bladder (OAB). Mechanisms underlying obesity‐/MetS‐associated OAB were explored using a high‐fat‐diet (HFD)‐induced obesity mouse model. HFD‐induced obesity/MetS mice developed an OAB phenotype characterized by enlarged non‐voiding contractions

Astrocyte Mechanobiology: Linking Biomechanical Forces to Biochemical Signaling in the Central Nervous System

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 7, July 2026.
Astrocytes are key sensors and transducers of biomechanical stimuli within the central nervous system. Astrocyte development is highly dependent on mechanical stimuli such as surrounding tissue stiffness and biomechanical strain. Mechanosensory pathways including integrins, connexins and pannexins, and mechanosensitive channels regulate astrocyte ...

P2X₃ Knock-Out Mice Reveal a Major Sensory Role for Urothelially Released ATP

, 2001
The present study explores the possible involvement of a purinergic mechanism in mechanosensory transduction in the bladder using P2X₃ receptor knock-out (P2X₃ ⁻⁄⁻) and wild-type control (P2X₃ ⁺⁄⁺) mice.

Microbial Metabolite‐Stimulated Bitter Taste Receptor T2R14 Signaling Is Modulated by CFTR Interactions

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) play an important role in physiological and cellular responses. Bitter tasting chemicals and microbial metabolites can bind to T2R14, which enables interactions between T2R14 and specific intracellular domains of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) anion channel.

Purinergic receptors in the endocrine and exocrine pancreas

, 2007
  Udgivelsesdato: 2007-Dec-11The pancreas is a complex gland performing both endocrine and exocrine functions. In recent years there has been increasing evidence that both endocrine and exocrine cells possess purinergic receptors, which influence ...

Channel Dysfunction as the Basis for Comorbidities in Multiple Sclerosis and Depression

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 6, June 2026.
Ion channel remodelling induced by neuroinflammation in multiple sclerosis alters neuronal excitability and immune signalling, creating shared molecular pathways that link multiple sclerosis pathology to depression and reveal novel pharmacological targets.
