## Abstract Microglia have highly branched and motile cell processes and constantly screen the brain parenchyma under physiological conditions. In response to pathological stimuli, microglia exhibit morphological changes and migrate toward the lesioned site, where they play important roles in infla

We have studied modulation of purinergic receptors (P(2Y) and P(2X) subtypes) on changes in intracellular Ca(2+) [Ca(2+)](i) and expression and production of COX-2 in human microglia. Measurements using Ca(2+)-sensitive spectrofluorometry showed adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to cause rapid transient

## Abstract Microglia, the immune effector cells of the brain, are stimulated by a diversity of agents to transiently increase levels of intracellular calcium ([Ca^2+^]i). Changes in [Ca^2+^]i induced by compounds such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) serve important roles in cellular signal transdu
