UDP-sugars activate P2Y 14 receptors to mediate vasoconstriction of the porcine coronary artery (2017)
Journal Article
Abbas, Z. S., Latif, M. L., Dovlatova, N., Fox, S. C., Heptinstall, S., Dunn, W. R., & Ralevic, V. (2018). UDP-sugars activate P2Y 14 receptors to mediate vasoconstriction of the porcine coronary artery. Vascular Pharmacology, 103-105, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vph.2017.12.063

Aims UDP-sugars can act as extracellular signalling molecules, but relatively little is known about their cardiovascular actions. The P2Y14 receptor is a Gi/o-coupled receptor which is activated by UDP-glucose and related sugar nucleotides. In thi...
