Abnormal extracellular ATP levels cause lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Here, we demonstrate that overexpression of ENTPD1 (CD39TG)—an ATP/ADP converting enzyme—reduces voiding frequency while increasing void volume. Conversely, ENTPD1 deficiency results in frequent, small‐volume voiding.

Characterisation of canine P2X and P2Y receptors
Purinergic signalling is an important biological process that utilises extracellular nucleotides to activate P2X and P2Y purinergic receptors. P2 receptors play a range of roles in human physiology and pathophysiology. Despite this, little is known about

Prothrombotic Activation of Platelet Pannexin‐1 Channels in Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Objective ATP is released from platelets through both degranulation and pannexin‐1 (PANX1) channels. ATP then activates P2X receptors to amplify platelet activation via calcium‐dependent signaling. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of platelet PANX1 channels in the pathophysiology of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), an acquired ...

Pharmacological Separation of Mechanosensory Mechanisms in Rat Urinary Bladder Ex Vivo
ABSTRACT The local response of the bladder wall to stretch is believed to result from the coordinated activation of mechanosensitive ion channels located in the plasma membrane of the cells that form the wall's urothelial and detrusor smooth muscle (DSM) layers.

Purinergic receptors in the endocrine and exocrine pancreas
Udgivelsesdato: 2007-Dec-11The pancreas is a complex gland performing both endocrine and exocrine functions. In recent years there has been increasing evidence that both endocrine and exocrine cells possess purinergic receptors, which influence ...

This study elucidates a novel mechanistic role of the deubiquitinase OTUD6A in asthma pathogenesis, uncovering its regulatory function in airway inflammation and airway remodeling through the stabilization of hResistin/mRELMα. This study offers a novel regulatory axis (OTUD6A‐hResistin/mRELMα) in asthma pathogenesis and OTUD6A inhibition as a potential

Purinergic receptors and the inflammatory response mediated by lipids.
The inflammatory response is regulated by the production of different extracellular mediators, including lipids and extracellular nucleotides. In the extracellular environment, intermediate lipids activate specific G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in ...

Purinergic receptors expressed in human skeletal muscle fibres
Purinergic receptors are present in most tissues and thought to be involved in various signalling pathways, including neural signalling, cell metabolism and local regulation of the microcirculation in skeletal muscles. The present study aims to determine

The P2X receptor mediated regulation of inhibitory synaptic transmission [PDF]
In the central nervous system ATP can be released by neurons and glial cells through similar pathways as other neurotransmitters. Extracellular ATP targets P2X purinoreceptors, causing an influx of Ca2+ ions which transmit very important messages for ...
