Who Is Who in Adenosine Transport
Frontiers 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 FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 3758-3787, July 2026.The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic scaffold that orchestrates tissue architecture and cellular communication. A critical but underexplored interplay between proteases and cluster of differentiation molecules (CD) governs ECM turnover and directs cell fate.

Purinergic receptors and synaptic transmission in enteric neurons [PDF]
, 2007 Purines such as ATP and adenosine participate in synaptic transmission in the enteric nervous system as neurotransmitters or neuromodulators. Purinergic receptors are localized on the cell bodies or nerve terminals of different functional classes of ...

The 3‐Hit Metabolic Signaling Model for Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Summary
Autism Research, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly heritable yet environmentally sensitive neurodevelopmental condition whose biological heterogeneity has resisted a unifying causal explanation for over 100 years. The 3‐hit metabolic signaling model proposes that ASD arises from abnormal persistence of an evolutionarily conserved stress‐response ...

NCI-H295R, a human adrenal cortex-derived cell line, expresses purinergic receptors linked to Ca²⁺-mobilization/influx and cortisol secretion. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Purinergic receptor expression and involvement in steroidogenesis were examined in NCI-H295R (H295R), a human adrenal cortex cell line which expresses all the key enzymes necessary for steroidogenesis. mRNA/protein for multiple P1 (A(2A) and A(2B)), P2X (

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 13, 3 April 2026.This work presents ARC‐3D, a soft 3D model that recreates how brain support cells, called astrocytes, react to oxidative stress. The system visualizes rapid calcium changes and inflammatory signals, and shows how the drug KDS12025 can protect cells from damage. ARC‐3D offers a simple, reliable way to study early drivers of brain inflammation.

The Journal of Toxicological SciencesPurinergic signaling plays an important role in vascular biology by vascular tone, inflammation, and remodeling through extracellular nucleotides that activate the P1 and P2 receptors. However, the expression patterns of these receptors in commonly used vascular cell models are not well characterized.

Red Blood Cell Membrane Mechanics Using Discrete Exterior Calculus (DEC) and Optimization
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 4, April 2026.We present a novel DEC approach for calculating RBC shapes applicable to other cell types and membrane problems. We derive an energy minimization equation that can be solved semi‐implicitly, and a Lie derivative method to control node spacing. This novel work should aid computational modeling in many biological situations.
