Astrocytic and Oligodendrocytic P2X7 Receptors Determine Neuronal Functions in the CNS
P2X7 receptors are members of the ATP-gated cationic channel family with a preferential localization at the microglial cells, the resident macrophages of the brain. However, these receptors are also present at neuroglia (astrocytes, oligodendrocytes) although at a considerably lower density. They me...
