Purinergic receptor P2X 1 (P2RX1)

Target
P2RX1
Molecular classification
Ligand-gated ion channel, Purinergic receptor
01

Overview

The purinergic receptor P2X1 (P2RX1) is a ligand-gated ion channel activated by extracellular ATP. It plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, including smooth muscle contraction, platelet activation, and immune responses. Its involvement in multiple systems makes it a potential therapeutic target for conditions like male infertility, hypertension, and thrombosis.
