Nanobody-Based Biologics for Modulating Purinergic Signaling in Inflammation and Immunity
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) are released as danger signals from cells during infection and sterile inflammation.

Plasma levels of the vasoactive substance uridine adenosine tetraphosphate (Up4A) are elevated in hypertensive patients and Up4A-induced vascular contraction is exacerbated in various arteries isolated from hypertensive animals, suggesting a potential ...

The first demonstrations in the early seventies that adenosine had marked effects in the cerebral cortex, which were independent of its role in intermediary metabolism and could be antagonised by methylxanthines, were followed by the observations that ...

Receptors should be properly analysed in view of the microenvironment in which they are embedded. Therefore, the concept of 'receptosome' was formulated to the complex interactions taking place between receptors and other proteins at the plasma membrane ...

Os receptores purinérgicos são divididos em receptores P1 e P2 de acordo com o seu agonista endógeno, os receptores metabotrópicos P1 são ativados por adenosina, enquanto os metabotrópicos P2Y e ionotrópicos P2X são estimulados através do ATP e outros ...

Purinergic enzymes on extracellular vesicles: immune modulation on the go
An increase in the extracellular concentration of ATP as a consequence of cellular stress or cell death results in the activation of immune cells. To prevent inflammation, extracellular ATP is rapidly metabolized to adenosine, which deploys an anti ...

Antidipsogenic effects of central adenosine-5'-triphosphate
Besides other physiological functions, adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) is also a neurotransmitter that acts on purinergic receptors. In spite of the presence of purinergic receptors in forebrain areas involved with fluid-electrolyte balance, the effect ...
