Polymyxin B increases the depletion of T regulatory cell induced by purinergic agonist
(Elsevier, 2012)
Regulatory T cells (Treg) are important in the development of immune tolerance under normal physiological
conditions. However, in pathological situations such as cancer, Treg increases have been correlated
with bad ...
Purinergic mechanisms of lateral parabrachial nucleus facilitate sodium depletion-induced NaCl intake
(Elsevier B.V., 2011-02-04)
Purinergic receptors are present in the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN), a pontine structure involved in the control of sodium intake. In the present study, we investigated the effects of alpha,beta-methyleneadenosine ...

A volume regulatory response can be triggered by nucleosides in human erythrocytes, a perfect osmometer no longer
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2010-02)
Human erythrocytes have been regarded as perfect osmometers, which swell or shrink as dictated by their osmotic environment. In contrast, in most other cells, swelling elicits a regulatory volume decrease (RVD) modulated ...
Carotid body chemosensory activity and ventilatory chemoreflexes in cats persist after combined cholinergic-purinergic block
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2007)
Acetylcholine (ACh) and ATP have been proposed as excitatory co-transmitters operating at synapses between glomus cells and sensory nerve endings of the carotid body (CB). To test such hypothesis, we performed experiments ...
