The Role of Purinergic Signaling in Heart Transplantation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Heart transplantation remains the optimal treatment option for patients with end-stage heart disease. Growing evidence demonstrates that purinergic signals mediated by purine nucleotides and nucleosides play vital roles in heart transplantation ...

Purinergic Receptors: Elucidating the Role of these Immune Mediators in HIV-1 Fusion

Viruses, 2020
Purinergic receptors are inflammatory mediators activated by extracellular nucleotides released by dying or injured cells. Several studies have described an important role for these receptors in HIV-1 entry, particularly regarding their activity on HIV-1

Integrating UHPLC-MS/MS quantitative analysis and exogenous purine supplementation to elucidate the antidepressant mechanism of Chaigui granules by regulating purine metabolism

Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis, 2023
Chaigui granules (CG) are a compound composed of six herbal medicines with significant antidepressant effects. However, the antidepressant mechanism of CG remains unclear. In the present study, we attempted to elucidate the antidepressant mechanism of CG

The relationship between P2X4 and P2X7: a physiologically important interaction? [PDF]

, 2013
Purinergic signaling within the kidney is becoming an important focus in the study of renal health and disease. The effectors of ATP signaling, the P2Y and P2X receptors, are expressed to varying extents in and along the nephron.

Emerging key roles for P2X receptors in the kidney [PDF]

, 2013
P2X ionotropic non-selective cation channels are expressed throughout the kidney and are activated in a paracrine or autocrine manner following the binding of extracellular ATP and related extracellular nucleotides.

ATP- and Adenosine-Mediated Signaling in the Central Nervous System: Purinergic Receptor Complex: Generating Adenine Nucleotide-Sensitive Adenosine Receptors

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
Adenosine A1 receptors (A1R) are able to form a heteromeric complex with P2Y1 receptors (P2Y1R) that generates A1R with P2Y1R-like agonistic pharmacology.

P2X receptors: epithelial ion channels and regulators of salt and water transport. [PDF]

, 2008
When the results from electrophysiological studies of renal epithelial cells are combined with data from in vivo tubule microperfusion experiments and immunohistochemical surveys of the nephron, the accumulated evidence suggests that ATP-gated ion ...

Purinergic signaling: A gatekeeper of blood-brain barrier permeation

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
This review outlined evidence that purinergic signaling is involved in the modulation of blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. The functional and structural integrity of the BBB is critical for maintaining the homeostasis of the brain microenvironment.
