P2X7 receptors on osteoblasts couple to production of lysophosphatidic acid: a signaling axis promoting osteogenesis

Nucleotides are released from cells in response to mechanical stimuli and signal in an autocrine/paracrine manner through cell surface P2 receptors. P2rx7(−/−) mice exhibit diminished appositional growth of long bones and impaired responses to mechanical loading. We find that calvarial sutures are w...
