Detection of Human P2X7 Nucleotide Receptor Polymorphisms by a Novel Monocyte Pore Assay Predictive of Alterations in Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Cytokine Production

1 Apr 2005

Abstract excerpt

The nucleotide receptor P2X(7) is expressed by most leukocytes and initiates signaling events that amplify numerous LPS responses. We tested the hypothesis that loss-of-function polymorphisms in the human P2X(7) gene predispose to the production of an anti-inflammatory mediator balance. Accordingly, we developed a novel P2X(7) pore assay in whole blood that magnifies the activity from wild-type alleles and...
