## Abstract The P2X~7~ receptor is an ATP‐gated ionotropic receptor that is permeable for small cations including Ca^2+^ ions. Using 293 cells expressing P2X~7~ receptors, we show that the P2X~7~ receptor‐specific ligand 2′,3′‐__O__‐(4‐benzoyl‐benzoyl)‐ATP (BzATP) induces a signaling cascade leadin
Schwann cells are best known as myelinating glial cells of the peripheral nervous system, but they also participate actively in the sphere of immunity by producing pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1 (IL-1). In a previous study, we demonstrated that posttranslational processing of IL
## Abstract Osteopontin (OPN), also called cytokine Eta‐1, expressed in the myocardium co‐incident with heart failure plays an important role in post myocardial infarction (MI) remodeling by promoting collagen synthesis and accumulation. Angiotensin II (Ang II) and inflammatory cytokines are increa
