The endothelium plays a key role in blood vessel health. At the interface of the blood, it releases several mediators that regulate local processes that protect against the development of cardiovascular disease.

Background Adrenal chromaffin cells mediate acute responses to stress through the release of epinephrine. Chromaffin cell function is regulated by several receptors, present both in adrenergic (AD) and noradrenergic (NA) cells.

Nucleotide Metabolism in Health and Disease
Nucleotide metabolism, including de novo synthesis, salvage pathways, and catabolism, when dysregulated contributes to cancer, immune disorders, metabolic and urological diseases, and radiation injury. Metabolites such as adenosine, cGAMP, NAD, and cAMP and enzymes like RNR are promising therapeutic targets and biomarkers.

Light‐Activated Communication Between Synthetic and Living Cells via Photoresponsive Membranes
Light‐triggered membrane rupture of SCs enables controlled release of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and histamine, which activate purinergic and histaminergic signaling in HeLa cells, leading to intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. This biomimetic communication platform provides a simple strategy for engineering remotely controlled chemical signaling ...

Membranes prepared from [3H]inositol-labeled turkey erythrocytes express a phospholipase C that is markedly stimulated by stable analogs of GTP (Harden, T. K., Stephens, L., Hawkins, P. T., and Downes, C. P. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 9057-9061).

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

Emerging Roles of Purinergic Signaling in Diabetes [PDF]
Purinergic signaling accounts for a complex network of receptors and extracellular enzymes responsible for the generation, recognition and degradation of extracellular ATP and adenosine.

Purinergic signalling in bone was first proposed in the early 1990s with the observation that extracellular ATP could modulate events crucial to the normal functioning of bone cells.

Abstract Bladder cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer‐related mortality worldwide. Long‐term survival is particularly poor in patients with muscle‐invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Modulation of purinergic signaling through the ectonucleotidases CD39 and CD73 has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy in cancer medicine.
