Comprehensive Genome‐Wide Analysis of Shared Genetic Factors in Gastrointestinal and Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
GI and ND GWAS and blood eQTL data were analyzed using LDSC, HDL, LAVA, GPA, PLACO, FUMA, MAGMA, SMR, HEIDI, and two‐sample MR to assess genetic correlations, pleiotropy, functional annotation, shared gene expression, and causal relationships. ABSTRACT Background This study investigates the shared genetic basis between gastrointestinal (GI) diseases ...

Control of Gut Inflammation by Modulation of Purinergic Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a serious inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract. Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are two of the most common IBD manifestations and are both associated with unfettered inflammation, often

Adrenergic Control of P2Y6 Receptor‐Dependent Phagocytosis in Rodent and Human Microglia

open access: yesGlia, Volume 73, Issue 10, Page 2025-2034, October 2025.
Main Points Adrenergic signaling through ADRB2 modulates phagocytosis in microglia Crosstalk between ADRB2 and P2Y6 receptors conserved in rodent and human microglia ADRB2 activation inhibits both P2Y6 function and gene expression ABSTRACT Microglia, the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS), are in constant survey of their ...

P2X and P2Y receptor signaling in red blood cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2015
Purinergic signaling involves the activation of cell surface P1 and P2 receptors by extracellular nucleosides and nucleotides such as adenosine and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), respectively.

P2Y1 Receptor as a Catalyst of Brain Neurodegeneration

open access: yesNeuroSci, 2022
Different brain disorders display distinctive etiologies and pathogenic mechanisms. However, they also share pathogenic events. One event systematically occurring in different brain disorders, both acute and chronic, is the increase of the extracellular ...

Functions of Purinergic Receptors

open access: yesReceptors P1 and P2 as Targets for Drug Therapy in Humans, 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.

Pharmacological evaluation of non‐nucleotide purine derivatives as P2X7 antagonists for the treatment of neuroinflammation in traumatic brain injury

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 19, Page 4693-4709, October 2025.
Background and purpose Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is considered to be a leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide. After TBI, innate immunity is rapidly activated in response to damage‐associated molecular patterns, such as ATP release, recognised by P2X7 receptors.

The bumpy road of purinergic inhibitors to clinical application in immune-mediated diseases

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Purinergic signaling plays important roles throughout the body in the regulation of organ functions during and following the disruption of homeostasis. This is also reflected by the widespread expression of two families of purinergic receptors (P1 and P2)

Who Is Who in Adenosine Transport

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Extracellular adenosine concentrations are regulated by a panel of membrane transporters which, in most cases, mediate its uptake into cells. Adenosine transporters belong to two gene families encoding Equilibrative and Concentrative Nucleoside ...

The Aquaporin‐4 Expression and Localization in the Olfactory Epithelium Modulate the Odorant‐Evoked Responses and Olfactory‐Driven Behavior

open access: yesGlia, Volume 73, Issue 8, Page 1642-1659, August 2025.
Main Points AQP4ex and OAP‐forming AQP4M23 are expressed in non‐neuronal cells of the olfactory epithelium. AQP4ex‐KO and OAP‐null mice show reduced cell density, including OSNs, and impaired odor responses and behavior, with AQP4ex emerging as key regulator.
