Simultaneous quantification of 12 different nucleotides and nucleosides released from renal epithelium and in human urine samples using ion-pair reversed-phase HPLC [PDF]

, 2012
Nucleotides and nucleosides are not only involved in cellular metabolism but also act extracellularly via P1 and P2 receptors, to elicit a wide variety of physiological and pathophysiological responses through paracrine and autocrine signalling pathways.

Encephalopathy: Cause, Pathogenesis, and Treatment

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Various encephalopathies (sepsis‐associated, hepatic, hypoxic–ischemic, diabetic, uremic, toxic) have incompletely elucidated pathogenesis, which severely restricts targeted therapy development. Small molecule drugs show unique multitarget potential but face toxicity, poor blood–brain barrier penetration and unclear specificity.

The Mechanism of NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Its Roles in Chronic Rhinosinusitis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 362-373, June 2026.
ABSTRACT NLRP3 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) is one of the crucial receptors in pathogen recognition receptor (PRR) families which can recognize the pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and the damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), thus triggering innate immune response. After NLRP3 activation, it recruits the adaptor protein

Purinergic receptors in microglia: Functional modal shifts of microglia mediated by P2 and P1 receptors

Glia, 2013
AbstractMicroglia are sensitive to environmental changes and are immediately transformed into several phenotypes. For such dynamic “modal shifts”, purinergic receptors have central roles. When microglia sense ATP/ADP leaked from injured cells by P2Y12 receptors, they are transformed into a moving phenotype, showing process extension and migration ...

PET imaging of purinergic receptors

, 2020
Over the recent years, interest in the purinergic signaling system has sparked in the field of positron emission tomography (PET). Purinergic receptors play key roles in physiological and pathological processes, although the exact role in these processes

P2 Purinergic Signaling in the Distal Lung in Health and Disease

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
The distal lung provides an intricate structure for gas exchange in mammalian lungs. Efficient gas exchange depends on the functional integrity of lung alveoli.

Parasympathetic overdrive as a cause of overactive bladder in a high‐fat‐diet‐induced obesity mouse model

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 12, Page 4945-4967, 15 June 2026.
Abstract figure legend Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are well‐known major risk factors for overactive bladder (OAB). Mechanisms underlying obesity‐/MetS‐associated OAB were explored using a high‐fat‐diet (HFD)‐induced obesity mouse model. HFD‐induced obesity/MetS mice developed an OAB phenotype characterized by enlarged non‐voiding contractions

Medicinal chemistry of P2 and adenosine receptors: Common scaffolds adapted for multiple targets.

Biochemical Pharmacology, 2020
Prof. Geoffrey Burnstock originated the concept of purinergic signaling. He demonstrated the interactions and biological roles of ionotropic P2X and metabotropic P2Y receptors.

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Immunomodulators for Cancer Immunotherapy: Insights Into Resistance and Therapeutic Strategies

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
The schematic diagram illustrates the roles of novel immune checkpoints, immunomodulatory factors, cell death and multimodal technologies in cancer immunotherapy. Abstract Cancer immunotherapy has redefined cancer treatment. However, the molecular and cellular basis of immune evasion and therapeutic resistance remains incompletely understood.

Neuroglial Response to High‐Amplitude, Short‐Duration Pressure Transients in Monoculture

Cell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Blast‐induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) was reported in 125,000 U.S. service men and women from 2000 to 2018. With no prophylactic treatments having been granted FDA approval, there is a clear need for further understanding of the impact of blasts on the central nervous system.
