Interleukin-1β has trophic effects in microglia and its release is mediated by P2X7R pore

BACKGROUND: Enhanced expression of the purinergic P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) occurs in several neuroinflammatory conditions where increased microglial activation is a co-existing feature. P2X7 receptors can function either as a cation channel or, upon continued stimulation, a large pore. P2X7R-over-expre...
