Systematic analyses of the sequence conservation and ligand interaction patterns of purinergic P1 and P2Y receptors provide a structural basis for receptor selectivity

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2023
Purinergic receptors are membrane proteins that regulate numerous cellular functions by catalyzing reactions involving purine nucleotides or nucleosides. Among the three receptor families, i.e., P1, P2X, and P2Y, the P1 and P2Y receptors share common structural features of class A GPCR.

Purinergic Signaling and Aminoglycoside Ototoxicity: The Opposing Roles of P1 (Adenosine) and P2 (ATP) Receptors on Cochlear Hair Cell Survival [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Purinergic signaling regulates important physiological processes and the homeostatic response to stress in the cochlea via extracellular nucleosides (adenosine) and nucleotides (ATP, UTP). Using a previously established organotypic culture model, the current study investigated the effect of purinergic P1 (adenosine) and P2 (ATP) receptor activation on ...

Role of P1 purinergic receptors in myocardial ischemia sensory transduction [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2002
To characterize the role that cardiac sensory P(1) purinergic (adenosine A(1) or A(2)) receptors play in transducing myocardial ischemia.Porcine nodose ganglion cardiac sensory neuron adenosine A(1) or A(2) receptor function was studied in situ during control states as well as in the presence of the peptides bradykinin and substance P or focal ...

Functions of Purinergic Receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Purinergic receptors, also known as purinoceptors, are a family of plasma membrane molecules found in many mammalian tissues. Purinergic receptors are transmembrane receptors consisting of two main categories.

Long-term (trophic) purinergic signalling: purinoceptors control cell proliferation, differentiation and death [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The purinergic signalling system, which uses purines and pyrimidines as chemical transmitters, and purinoceptors as effectors, is deeply rooted in evolution and development and is a pivotal factor in cell communication.

ATP as a presynaptic modulator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
© 2000 Elsevier Science Inc.There is considerable evidence that ATP acts as a fast transmitter or co-transmitter in autonomic and sensory nerves mostly through activation of ionotropic P2X receptors but also through metabotropic P2Y receptors. By analogy,
