## Abstract The expression and functionality of P2X/P2Y receptor subtypes in multipolar nonpyramidal neurons of mixed cortical cell cultures were investigated by means of immunocytochemistry and fura‐2 microfluorimetry. The morphological studies revealed that most of the neurons are immunoreactive

## Abstract Mixed striatal cell cultures containing neurons and glial cells were grown either in neurobasal medium (NBM) or Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM). Whole‐cell patch‐clamp recordings indicated that, if at all, only a single, low amplitude spike was evoked shortly after starting th
## Abstract ATP is the dominant messenger for astrocyte‐to‐astrocyte calcium‐mediated communication. Definition of the exact ATP/P2 receptors in astrocytes and of their coupling to intracellular calcium ([Ca^2+^]~i~) has important implications for brain physiology and pathology. We show that, with
## Abstract Periodic and spontaneous Ca^2+^ spikes are observed in neurons during development of the central nervous system, and spontaneous changes in intracellular Ca^2+^ concentration in neurons play important roles in the development of neural circuits. To clarify the roles of metabotropic glut
## Abstract The increasing number of ATP‐ and UTP‐sensitive membrane receptors identified by cloning represent either ligand‐activated ion channels (P2X) or G‐protein‐coupled receptors (P2Y). Adenosine, ATP, and UTP have potential application in the management of pain, cancer, and some cardiovascul
