Purinergic signaling in the modulation of redox biology

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2021
Purinergic signaling is a cell communication pathway mediated by extracellular nucleotides and nucleosides. Tri- and diphosphonucleotides are released in physiological and pathological circumstances activating purinergic type 2 receptors (P2 receptors ...

Purines as potential morphogens during embryonic development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Components of purinergic signalling are expressed in the early embryo raising the possibility that ATP, ADP and adenosine may contribute to the mechanisms of embryonic development.

The developmental journey of therapies targeting purine receptors: from basic science to clinical trials

open access: yes, 2022
Since the discovery of ATP as an extracellular signalling molecule in 1972, purinergic signalling, mediated by extracellular purines and pyrimidines has been identified in virtually all mammalian tissues and is implicated in regulating fundamental ...

Purinergic receptors in airway epithelia [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Pharmacology, 2009
Nucleotides and nucleosides within the airway surface liquid regulate mucociliary clearance (MCC) activities, the primary innate defense mechanism that removes foreign particles and pathogens from airway surfaces. Nucleotide and nucleoside actions in the airways are mediated mainly by two purinergic receptor subtypes, the Gq-coupled ATP/UTP-sensing ...

Resetting intrinsic purinergic modulation of neural activity: an associative mechanism? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The purines, ATP and adenosine, control the rundown and termination of swimming in the Xenopus embryo. This intrinsic purinergic modulation, unavoidably present during every swimming episode, could lead to stereotyped inflexible behavior and consequently

Purinergic receptors in the splanchnic circulation [PDF]

open access: yesPurinergic Signalling, 2008
There is considerable evidence that purines are vasoactive molecules involved in the regulation of blood flow. Adenosine is a well known vasodilator that also acts as a modulator of the response to other vasoactive substances. Adenosine exerts its effects by interacting with adenosine receptors.

Purinergic signalling pathway: therapeutic target in ovarian cancer

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics, 2020
Background The lack of early diagnostic tools and the development of chemoresistance have made ovarian cancer (OC) one of the deadliest gynaecological cancers.

Purinergic Receptor Expression and Potential Association with Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cell Development

open access: yesCell Journal, 2017
Objective: Due to recent progress in production of human embryonic stem cell-derived oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (hESC-OPCs) for ameliorating myelin disease such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and the role of purinergic signaling in OPCs development,

Involvement of P2Y1, P2Y6, A1 and A2A Receptors in the Purinergic Inhibition of NMDA-Evoked Noradrenaline Release in the Rat Brain Cortex

open access: yesCells, 2023
In the cerebral cortex, glutamate activates NMDA receptors (NMDARs), localized in noradrenergic neurons, inducing noradrenaline release that may have a permissive effect on glutamatergic transmission, and therefore, on the modulation of long-term ...
