1 In response to ATP binding, the P2X7R facilitates cation channel activation, nonspecific pore formation, rapid changes in plasma membrane morphology, and secretion of IL-1 beta from LPS-primed macrophages. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
2 Blebbing was initiated at ATP concentrations > or = 3 mM, but optimal IL-1 beta release occurred at 1 mM ATP. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
3 P2X7R-dependent blebbing was abrogated in the presence of Rho-effector kinase inhibitors Fasudil and Y-27632, but ATP-induced IL-1 beta release was unaffected. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
