Drug-like antagonists of P2Y receptors — from lead identification to drug development (2016)
Journal Article
Conroy, S., Kindon, N., Kellam, B., & Stocks, M. (in press). Drug-like antagonists of P2Y receptors — from lead identification to drug development. Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jmedchem.5b01972

P2Y receptors are expressed in virtually all cells and tissue types and mediate an astonishing array of biological functions, including platelet aggregation, smooth muscle cell proliferation, and immune regulation. The P2Y receptors belong to the G p... Read More about Drug-like antagonists of P2Y receptors — from lead identification to drug development.

Adenosine-A3 receptors in neutrophil microdomains promote the formation of bacteria-tethering cytonemes (2013)
Journal Article
Corriden, R., Self, T., Akong-Moore, K., Nizet, V., Kellam, B., Briddon, S. J., & Hill, S. J. (2013). Adenosine-A3 receptors in neutrophil microdomains promote the formation of bacteria-tethering cytonemes. EMBO Reports, 14(8), https://doi.org/10.1038/embor.2013.89

The A3‐adenosine receptor (A3AR) has recently emerged as a key regulator of neutrophil behaviour. Using a fluorescent A3AR ligand, we show that A3ARs aggregate in highly polarized immunomodulatory microdomains on human neutrophil membranes. In additi...
