ATP-gated P2X channels
What are they? P2X channels are a family of cell-membrane cation channels which open within milliseconds of binding ATP. They are distinct from the other family of ATP receptors, the G-proteincoupled P2Y receptors, and also from other transmitter-gated ion channels. P2X channels are the third major family of mammalian transmitter-gated ion channels (Figure 1); they are similar in topology to am...
متن کاملPhosphoinositides regulate P2X4 ATP-gated channels through direct interactions.
P2X receptors are ATP-gated nonselective cation channels highly permeable to calcium that contribute to nociception and inflammatory responses. The P2X(4) subtype, upregulated in activated microglia, is thought to play a critical role in the development of tactile allodynia following peripheral nerve injury. Posttranslational regulation of P2X(4) function is crucial to the cellular mechanisms o...

متن کاملATP-gated P2X cation-channels.
P2X receptors are ATP-gated cation channels with important roles in diverse pathophysiological processes. Substantial progress has been made in the last few years with the discovery of both subunit selective antagonists and modulators. The purpose of this brief review is to summarize the advances in the pharmacology of P2X receptors, with key properties presented in an easy to access format. Li...
متن کاملBrain and Peripheral Atypical Inflammatory Mediators Potentiate Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration
Neuroinflammatory response is primarily a protective mechanism in the brain. However, excessive and chronic inflammatory responses can lead to deleterious effects involving immune cells, brain cells and signaling molecules. Neuroinflammation induces and accelerates pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Multiple sclerosis (MS). Neuroinflammatory pathways are indi...
