Purinergic receptors in skeletal muscles in health and in muscular dystrophy [PDF]
, 2014 The P2 purinergic (nucleotide) receptor super-family comprises of two families of protein. The P2X, which are channel-forming ionotropic receptors and the P2Y metabotropic receptors activating G protein-mediated signalling pathways.

Adenosine-mediated modulation of ventral horn interneurons and spinal motoneurons in neonatal mice [PDF]
, 2015 The authors are grateful for support from the Wellcome Trust.Neuromodulation allows neural networks to adapt to varying environmental and biomechanical demands. Purinergic signalling is known to be an important modulatory system in many parts of the CNS,

Hypoxia induces purinergic receptor signaling to disrupt endothelial barrier function
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Blood-brain-barrier permeability is regulated by endothelial junctional proteins and is vital in limiting access to and from the blood to the CNS. When stressed, several cells, including endothelial cells, can release nucleotides like ATP and ADP that ...

The role of purinergic signaling in microglial responses
Stress and Brain, 2021 Microglia, the primary immune cells in the central nervous system (CNS), are key to the maintenance of homeostasis in the brain parenchyma. In the intact brain, microglia continuously survey the microenvironment with ramified processes.

Release of ATP in the ventral medulla during hypoxia in rats: role in hypoxic ventilatory response [PDF]
, 2005 P2X2 receptor subunits of the ATP-gated ion channels are expressed by physiologically identified respiratory neurons in the ventral respiratory column, implicating ATP in the control of respiratory activity.
