Erythrocytes are exceptionally suited for analysis of non-exocytotic release mechanisms of ATP, because these cells under physiological conditions lack vesicles. Previous studies have indicated, that Pannexin1 (Panx1) provides a key ATP permeation pathway in many cell types, including human and frog erythrocytes. Here we show that erythrocytes of Panx1 −/− mice lend further support to this...
The ability for long-range communication through intercellular calcium waves is inherent to cells of many tissues. A dual propagation mode for these waves includes passage of IP3 through gap junctions as well as an extracellular pathway involving ATP. The wave can be regenerative and include ATP-induced ATP release via an unknown mechanism. Here, we show that pannexin 1 channels can be activated by...
