    GlossaryPurinergic Signaling

    cell communication using purines like ATP to regulate functions

    Purinergic signaling refers to the communication system in the body that uses purines, such as ATP (adenosine triphosphate), as signaling molecules. These purines bind to specific receptors on cell surfaces, known as purinergic receptors, to regulate various physiological processes, including inflammation, pain perception, and tissue repair. This type of signaling is crucial in many biological functions and is being studied for its potential therapeutic applications in conditions like chronic pain and neurodegenerative diseases.
