Apical membrane P2Y4 purinergic receptor controls K+ secretion by strial marginal cell epithelium

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2005
Background It was previously shown that K+ secretion by strial marginal cell epithelium is under the control of G-protein coupled receptors of the P2Y family in the apical membrane.

Drug-like antagonists of P2Y receptors — from lead identification to drug development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
P2Y receptors are expressed in virtually all cells and tissue types and mediate an astonishing array of biological functions, including platelet aggregation, smooth muscle cell proliferation, and immune regulation.

Comparative metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis of 2D and 3D mesenchymal stem cell cultures for improved therapeutic applications

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 2, Page 379-392, January 2026.
Comparative metabolomic and transcriptomic profiling reveals distinct metabolic shifts and reduced proliferation in 3D MSC spheroids, providing insights to optimise MSC‐based therapies. Abstract Background and Purpose Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are used widely in regenerative medicine due to their multipotency and immunomodulatory properties ...

Integrity of Actin-Network Is Involved in Uridine 5′-Triphosphate Evoked Store-Operated CaM2+ Entry in Bovine Adrenocortical Fasciculata Cells

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
Store-operated Ca2+ entry channels (SOCs) play an important role in the regulation of diverse non-excitable cell functions. However, the precise mechanism of SOCs activation is still controversial.

5'-nucleotidases, nucleosides and their distribution in the brain: pathological and therapeutic implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Elements of the nucleoside system (nucleoside levels, 5'-nucleotidases (5'NTs) and other nucleoside metabolic enzymes, nucleoside transporters and nucleoside receptors) are unevenly distributed in the brain, suggesting that nucleosides have region ...

The P2X7 Receptor and Its Relation to Neglected Tropical Diseases: Focusing on Chagas Disease

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, is a neglected tropical disease (NTD) that can lead to severe cardiac complications, including chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy. While NTDs are caused by a variety of pathogens—such as protozoa, bacteria, viruses, and helminths, Chagas disease remains underexplored, particularly regarding host immune responses.

Estrogen suppresses the impact of glucose deprivation on astrocytic calcium levels and signaling independently of the nuclear estrogen receptor

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2005
Glucose deprivation of astrocytes results in an elevation of cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) [Kahlert, S., Reiser, G., 2000. Requirement of glycolytic and mitochondrial energy supply for loading of Ca2+ stores and InsP3-mediated Ca2+ signaling ...

ATP- and Polyphosphate-Dependent Glucokinases from Aerobic Methanotrophs

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
The genes encoding adenosine triphosphate (ATP)- and polyphosphate (polyP)-dependent glucokinases (Glk) were identified in the aerobic obligate methanotroph Methylomonas sp. 12. The recombinant proteins were obtained by the heterologous expression of the

Recognition of two distinct elements in the RNA substrate by the RNA-binding domain of the T. thermophilus DEAD box helicase Hera [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
DEAD box helicases catalyze the ATP-dependent destabilization of RNA duplexes. Whereas duplex separation is mediated by the helicase core shared by all members of the family, flanking domains often contribute to binding of the RNA substrate.

Effects of 4(1H)-quinolinone derivative, a novel non-nucleotide allosteric purinergic P2Y 2 agonist, on cardiomyocytes in neonatal rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Purinergic P2Y 2 receptors, G-protein coupled receptors that primarily couple with Gαq/11-proteins, are activated equipotently by adenosine-5′-triphosphate (ATP) and uridine-5′-triphosphate.
