Purinergic signalling in neuroregeneration
... Purinergic signalling plays important roles in neurodegeneration, neuroprotection and neuroregeneration (Burnstock, 2015). Trauma, ischaemia and stroke result in release of ATP/adenosine from cells in the central nervous system (CNS), which can either enhance neuronal and glial cell damage or serve ...
