T-Lymphocyte: ATP

Pathway ID: SIGNOR-TLymphATP

Description: Upon myofibers degeneration cytoplasmic content is released in the extracelluar space. ATP is one of the most abundant molecules in the cytoplasm and could act as a DAMP molecule (Damage Associated Molecular Pattern) for the activation of immune system cells. ATP binds to many members of Purinergic 2 X (P2X) receptors superfamily contributing to the control of cell metabolism and function. ATP and P2X7 receptors result to be negative modulators of Treg phenotype through the activation of ERK kinase.
