Overview: Purinergic Mechanisms

BURNSTOCK, G.·1990·Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences

Abstract

An overview of the history of studies of the biological actions of extracellular ATP is presented. The basis of the subdivision of receptors for purines into P1-purinoceptors for adenosine and P2-purinoceptors for ATP and ADP are considered, as well as the recent proposal for subdivision of the ATP receptors into P2X-, P2Y-, P2Z-, and P2T- purinoceptor subtypes. These purinoceptor subtypes are discussed with respect to their transduction mechanisms, their distribution, and their physiological roles, including their roles in cotransmission and neuromodulation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
