    The P2X7 receptor forms a dye-permeable pore independent of its intracellular domain but dependent on membrane lipid composition

    Akira Karasawa, Kevin Michalski ... Toshimitsu Kawate
    Functional reconstitution of a mammalian P2X7 receptor uncovers an intrinsic and lipid-dependent dye-permeable membrane pore.

    Reciprocal synapses between mushroom body and dopamine neurons form a positive feedback loop required for learning

    Isaac Cervantes-Sandoval, Anna Phan ... Ronald L Davis
    Structural and functional analysis of axonal-axonal reciprocal connections between dopamine neurons and Kenyon cells provides insight into the brain computations for normal associative olfactory learning.

    Activation of astrocytes in hippocampus decreases fear memory through adenosine A1 receptors

    Yulan Li, Lixuan Li ... Yan-Qin Yu
    A new strategy of memory consolidation disruption based on astrocyte and purinergic signaling, which leads to persistent fear memory attenuation accompanied by reduced fear-related anxiety behavior.

    Purinergic signaling in cochlear supporting cells reduces hair cell excitability by increasing the extracellular space

    Travis A Babola, Calvin J Kersbergen ... Dwight E Bergles
    Supporting cells in the cochlea change their shape in response to purinergic receptor activation, which influences hair cell excitability by altering potassium redistribution in the extracellular space.

    EROS is a selective chaperone regulating the phagocyte NADPH oxidase and purinergic signalling

    Lyra O Randzavola, Paige M Mortimer ... David C Thomas
    Biochemical and cellular analyses reveal the mechanism by which EROS regulates NOX2 and P2X7 abundance in mouse and human.

    Activity-dependent regulation of T-type calcium channels by submembrane calcium ions

    Magali Cazade, Isabelle Bidaud ... Jean Chemin
    The feedback inhibition of T-type calcium channels by intracellular calcium provides new avenues to better decipher the roles of these low-voltage-activated channels in the fine control of calcium signaling events in physiology and pathophysiology.

    Drosulfakinin signaling modulates female sexual receptivity in Drosophila

    Tao Wang, Biyang Jing ... Chuan Zhou
    The neuropeptide Drosulfakinin (DSK) functions in a subset of DSK neurons to interact with neural nodes in the sex circuit and acts through its receptor CCKLR-17D3 to control female sexual behavior.

    Released bacterial ATP shapes local and systemic inflammation during abdominal sepsis

    Daniel Spari, Annina Schmid ... Guido Beldi
    Bacteria release ATP as part of their attack in sepsis.

    The His-Gly motif of acid-sensing ion channels resides in a reentrant ‘loop’ implicated in gating and ion selectivity

    Nate Yoder, Eric Gouaux
    The amino terminus of acid-sensing ion channel 1a forms a reentrant 'loop' that frames the lower pore and harbors a conserved 'His-Gly' motif implicated in gating and ion selectivity mechanisms.
