Abstract
Immunogenic death (ICD) stimulates adaptive immunity and affects immunotherapeutic efficacy, an important part of which is damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). However, the function of these DAMPs for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains obscure. We initially found differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with prognostic significance related to DAMPs with the TCGA database and then used the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression to create a risk signature strongly correlated with overall survival (OS) with eight DEGs. Validation was performed externally using the external data set GSE68465. Lower-risk LUAD patients were found to be more chemotherapy-resistant and enriched for more immune-related pathways than those with higher risk scores, and patients with different risks showed different levels of immune cell infiltration. PANX1, a crucial gene closely associated with lung adenocarcinoma, was identified using the weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA), and experiments revealed that PANX1 promotes the proliferation as well as invasion of LUAD cells. Furthermore, PANX1 was found to be positively correlated with CD274, CD276, and M2 macrophage markers. We developed and validated an entirely new gene signature related to DAMPs that may be useful for LUAD patient prognosis, immune microenvironment, and chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity prediction. The results may also guide clinical immunotherapy and chemotherapy approaches for LUAD patients.

Abstract
The skin is a highly organized tissue composed of multiple layers and cell types that require coordinated cell to cell communication to maintain tissue homeostasis. In skin cancer, this organized structure and communication is disrupted, prompting the malignant transformation of healthy cells into melanoma, basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma tumours. One such family of channel proteins critical for cellular communication is pannexins (PANX1, PANX2, PANX3), all of which are present in the skin. These heptameric single-membrane channels act as conduits for small molecules and ions like ATP and Ca2+ but have also been shown to have channel-independent functions through their interacting partners or action in signalling pathways. Pannexins have diverse roles in the skin such as in skin development, aging, barrier function, keratinocyte differentiation, inflammation, and wound healing, which were discovered through work with pannexin knockout mice, organotypic epidermis models, primary cells, and immortalized cell lines. In the context of cutaneous cancer, PANX1 is present at high levels in melanoma tumours and functions in melanoma carcinogenesis, and both PANX1 and PANX3 expression is altered in non-melanoma skin cancer. PANX2 has thus far not been implicated in any skin cancer. This review will discuss pannexin isoforms, structure, trafficking, post-translational modifications, interactome, and channel activity. We will also outline the expression, localization, and function of pannexin channels within the diverse cell types of the epidermis, dermis, hypodermis, and adnexal structures of the skin, and how these properties are exploited or abrogated in instances of skin cancer.

Abstract
Many neurological conditions exhibit synaptic impairments, suggesting mechanistic convergence. Additionally, the pannexin 1 (PANX1) channel and signaling scaffold is linked to several of these neurological conditions and is an emerging regulator of synaptic development and plasticity; however, its synaptic pathogenic contributions are relatively unexplored. To this end, we explored connections between synaptic neurodevelopmental disorder and neurodegenerative disease susceptibility genes discovered by genome-wide association studies (GWASs), and the neural PANX1 interactome (483 proteins) identified from mouse Neuro2a (N2a) cells. To identify shared susceptibility genes, we compared synaptic suggestive GWAS candidate genes amongst autism spectrum disorders, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease. To further probe PANX1 signaling pathways at the synapse, we used bioinformatics tools to identify PANX1 interactome signaling pathways and protein-protein interaction clusters. To shed light on synaptic disease mechanisms potentially linking PANX1 and these four neurological conditions, we performed additional cross-analyses between gene ontologies enriched for the PANX1 synaptic and disease-susceptibility gene sets. Finally, to explore the regional specificity of synaptic PANX1-neurological condition connections, we identified brain region-specific elevations of synaptic PANX1 interactome and GWAS candidate gene set transcripts. Our results confirm considerable overlap in risk genes for autism spectrum disorders and schizophrenia and identify potential commonalities in genetic susceptibility for neurodevelopmental disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Our findings also pinpointed novel putative PANX1 links to synaptic disease-associated pathways, such as regulation of vesicular trafficking and proteostasis, warranting further validation.

Abstract
Propidium iodide (PI) and YO-PRO-1 (YPI) dyes are routinely used to determine sperm viability in many livestock species. It is commonly accepted that these dyes penetrate only sperm cells with damaged plasma membranes. Recently, however, the mechanism of dye uptake unrelated to damaged plasma membranes, but instead related to pannexin channels in dog and stallion sperm cells was demonstrated. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the role of pannexins in the uptake of PI and YPI dyes on Wallachian frozen-thawed ram spermatozoa by flow cytometry using probenecid, a specific inhibitor of pannexin channels. Additionally, the expression of pannexins in Wallachian sperm was evaluated directly (by qRT-PCR). The results demonstrate the active role of pannexin channels in the uptake of PI and YPI dyes on frozen-thawed Wallachian ram sperm. In conclusion, when using the PI or YPI exclusion assay to determine Wallachian frozen-thawed ram sperm viability, the danger of overestimating the number of spermatozoa with the damaged plasma membrane must be considered. The observed breed-specific, and more importantly, individual differences in gene expression as well as in dye uptake indicate the need for further studies.

Abstract
Pannexin 1 (PANX1) is expressed in many tissue types including tissues of neural origin. Neuroblastoma (NB) is a neural crest-derived malignancy mainly occurring in children. The majority of NB patients present with high-risk disease for which current therapies are ineffective. Here, we show that while PANX1 is expressed in NB of all stages, high PANX1 expression in high-risk NB is associated with a reduced survival probability. PANX1 channel inhibition using probenecid (PBN) or carbenoxolone (CBX) reduced the proliferation of our panel of high-risk NB cell lines. We show that expression of the Y10F PANX1 mutant, which cannot be phosphorylated on tyrosine 10 and acts in a dominant-negative manner, curtailed NB cell proliferation. Furthermore, PBN and CBX treatment halted the growth of NB spheroids and in some cases triggered the regression of established NB spheroids. Finally, both drugs reduced the progression of high-risk NB in vivo. Together our data indicate that PANX1 channels regulate human NB malignant properties and that the use of PBN or CBX may provide a new therapeutic approach for high-risk NB.

Abstract
PURPOSE Variants in the pannexin1 (PANX1) gene have been reported to be associated with oocyte death and recurrent in vitro fertilization failure. In this study, we performed genetic analysis in the patient with female infertility due to oocyte death to identify the disease-causing gene variant in the patient. METHODS We characterized one patient from a non-consanguineous family who had suffered from oocyte death and female infertility. Whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing were used to identify the variant in the family. Western blot analysis was used to check the effect of the variant on PANX1 glycosylation pattern in vitro. RESULTS We identified a novel heterozygous PANX1 variant (NM_015368.4 c.976_978del, (p.Asn326del)) associated with the phenotype of oocyte death in a non-consanguineous family, followed by an autosomal dominant (AD) mode. This variant showed a more delayed emergence of oocyte death than previously reported articles. Western blot analysis confirmed that the deletion variant of PANX1 (c.976_978del) altered the glycosylation pattern in HeLa cells. CONCLUSIONS Our findings expand the variant spectrum of PANX1 genes associated with oocyte death and provide new support for the genetic diagnosis of female infertility.

Abstract
Pannexins (PANX1, 2, 3) are channel-forming glycoproteins that are expressed throughout the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal system. The canonical function of these proteins is to release nucleotides that act as purinergic signalling at the cell membrane or Ca2+ channels at the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. These two forms of signalling are essential for autocrine and paracrine signalling in health, and alterations in this signalling have been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Many musculoskeletal and cardiovascular diseases are largely the result of a lack of physical activity which causes altered gene expression. Considering exercise training has been shown to alter a wide array of gene expression in musculoskeletal tissues, understanding the interaction between exercise training, gene function and expression in relevant diseases is warranted. With regards to pannexins, multiple publications have shown that exercise training can influence pannexin expression and may influence the significance of its function in certain diseases. This review further discusses the potential interaction between exercise training and pannexin biology in relevant tissues and disease models. We propose that exercise training in relevant animal and human models will provide a more comprehensive understanding of the implications of pannexin biology in disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE Oocyte death is a severe clinical phenotype that causes female infertility and recurrent in vitro fertilization and intracytoplasmic sperm injection failure. We aimed to identify pathogenic variants in a female infertility patient with oocyte death phenotype. METHODS Sanger sequencing was performed to screen PANX1 variants in the affected patient. Western blot analysis was used to check the effect of the variant on PANX1 glycosylation pattern in vitro. RESULTS We identified a novel PANX1 variant (NM_015368.4 c.86G > A, (p. Arg29Gln)) associated with the phenotype of oocyte death in a non-consanguineous family. This variant displayed an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern with reduced penetrance. Western blot analysis confirmed that the missense mutation of PANX1 (c.86G > A) altered the glycosylation pattern in HeLa cells. Moreover, the mutation effects on the function of PANX1 were weaker than recently reported variants. CONCLUSION Our findings expand the inheritance pattern of PANX1 variants to an autosomal dominant mode with reduced penetrance and enrich the variational spectrum of PANX1. These results help us to better understand the genetic basis of female infertility with oocyte death.

Abstract
Glioma remains the most common malignant tumors in the central nervous system and often has poor prognosis. In recent years, it has been gradually revealed that non-coding RNA effects glioma progression. In this study, we aimed to investigate the significance of circular RNA TLK1 (Circ-TLK1) in predicting the survival of glioma patients as well as its role in glioma development via both in-vitro and in-vivo experiments. We found that Circ-TLK1 was conspicuously up-regulated in glioma tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues, and the up-regulated Circ-TLK1 was significantly correlated with glioma patients' larger tumor volume and higher grades. Functionally, Circ-TLK1 over-expression facilitated glioma growth, migration and invasion, inhibited cell apoptosis, and accelerated PANX1/MAPK/ERK expression, while Circ-TLK1 low expression had the opposite effects. In addition, bioinformatics analysis showed that miR-17-5p was a potential target of Circ-TLK1 and targeted at PANX1. Furthermore, through dual luciferase viability assay, Circ-TLK1 acted as a competing endogenous RNA by sponging miR-17-5p, which targeted and inhibited PANX1/MAPK/ERK expression. MiR-17-5p overexpression mitigated glioma progression, which was significantly inhibited with Circ-TLK1 upregulation. In conclusion, this study confirmed a novel axis of Circ-TLK1-miR-17-5p-PANX1 in modulating glioma development, providing more references for glioma diagnosis and targeted therapy.

Abstract
Pannexins are a family of glycoproteins that comprises three members, PANX1, PANX2, and PANX3. The widely expressed and interrogated PANX1 forms heptameric membrane channels that primarily serve to connect the cytoplasm to the extracellular milieu by being selectively permeable to small signaling molecules when activated. Apart from notable exceptions, PANX1 in many tumor cells appears to facilitate tumor growth and metastasis, suggesting that pannexin-blocking therapeutics may have utility in cancer. Attenuation of PANX1 function must also consider the fact that PANX1 is found in stromal cells of the tumor microenvironment (TME), including immune cells. This review highlights the key discoveries of the past 5 years that suggest pannexins facilitate, or in some cases inhibit, tumor cell growth and metastasis via direct protein interactions and through the regulated efflux of signaling molecules.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Skeletal muscle is a key target organ for insulin's actions and is the main regulator of blood glucose. In obese individuals and animal models, there is a chronic low-grade inflammatory state affecting highly metabolic organs, leading to insulin resistance. We have described that adult skeletal muscle fibres can release ATP to the extracellular medium through pannexin-1 (PANX1) channels. Besides, it is known that high extracellular ATP concentrations can act as an inflammatory signal. Here, we propose that skeletal muscle fibres from obese mice release high levels of ATP, through PANX1 channels, promoting inflammation and insulin resistance in muscle cells. METHODS C57BL/6J mice were fed with normal control diet (NCD) or high-fat diet (HFD) for 8 weeks. Muscle fibres were isolated from flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscle. PANX1-knockdown FDB fibres were obtained by in vivo electroporation of a short hairpin RNA Panx1 plasmid. We analysed extracellular ATP levels in a luciferin/luciferase assay. Gene expression was studied with quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Protein levels were evaluated by immunoblots, ELISA and immunofluorescence. Insulin sensitivity was analysed in a 2-NBDG (fluorescent glucose analogue) uptake assay, immunoblots and IPGTT. RESULTS HFD-fed mice showed significant weight gain and insulin resistance compared with NCD-fed mice. IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α protein levels were increased in FDB muscle from obese mice. We observed high levels of extracellular ATP in muscle fibres from obese mice (197 ± 55 pmol ATP/μg RNA) compared with controls (32 ± 10 pmol ATP/μg RNA). ATP release in obese mice fibres was reduced by application of 100 μmol/l oleamide (OLE) and 5 μmol/l carbenoxolone (CBX), both PANX1 blockers. mRNA levels of genes linked to inflammation were reduced using OLE, CBX or 2 U/ml ATPase apyrase in muscle fibres from HFD-fed mice. In fibres from mice with pannexin-1 knockdown, we observed diminished extracellular ATP levels (78 ± 10 pmol ATP/μg RNA vs 252 ± 37 pmol ATP/μg RNA in control mice) and a lower expression of inflammatory markers. Moreover, a single pulse of 300 μmol/l ATP to fibres from control mice reduced insulin-mediated 2-NBDG uptake and promoted an elevation in mRNA levels of inflammatory markers. PANX-1 protein levels were increased two- to threefold in skeletal muscle from obese mice compared with control mice. Incubation with CBX increased Akt activation and 2-NBDG uptake in HFD fibres after insulin stimulation, rescuing the insulin resistance condition. Finally, in vivo treatment of HFD-fed mice with CBX (i.p. injection of 10 mg/kg each day) for 14 days, compared with PBS, reduced extracellular ATP levels in skeletal muscle fibres (51 ± 10 pmol ATP/μg RNA vs 222 ± 28 pmol ATP/μg RNA in PBS-treated mice), diminished inflammation and improved glycaemic management. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION In this work, we propose a novel mechanism for the development of inflammation and insulin resistance in the skeletal muscle of obese mice. We found that high extracellular ATP levels, released by overexpressed PANX1 channels, lead to an inflammatory state and insulin resistance in skeletal muscle fibres of obese mice.

Abstract
Pannexins, large non-gap junction super family exists in vertebrates, play multiple roles in different cellular functions through their ATP release. Panx1-mediated adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) release plays a vital role in physiological and pathophysiological conditions and is known major extracellular molecule in purinergic signaling. To modulate their function in vivo, a proper regulation of channel is necessary. Post-translational modifications are considered to be some regulating mechanisms for PANX1, while PANX2, PANX3 have been uncharacterized to date. Through their significant evidences, PANXs exclude from gap junction and conduits ATP release and other cellular molecules from cells by various mechanisms. PANX1 is most extensive characterized and implicated in ATP signaling and inflammatory processes. Despite the constant advances, much significance of PANX1 in physiological processes remains elusive. Recently, various research groups along with our group have reported the Cryo-EM structure of Panx1 channel and uncovered the hidden functions in structure-function mechanism as well as to provide the clear understanding in physiological and pathophysiological roles. These research groups reported the novel heptameric structure with contains 4 transmembrane helices (TM), two extracellular loops and one intracellular loop with N and C terminus located at the intracellular side. In addition, the structure contains a large pore of which an inhibitor CBX act as a plug that blocking the passage of substrate. In this context, this review will present current mechanistic understanding in structure and function together with significant physiological roles particularly ATP release in health and disease. As such, this review emphasizes on recent functional properties associated with novel heptameric channel and demystifies channel-mediated ATP release function.

Abstract
Melanoma is the most aggressive skin malignancy with increasing incidence worldwide. Pannexin1 (PANX1), a member of the pannexin family of channel-forming glycoproteins, regulates cellular processes in melanoma cells including proliferation, migration, and invasion/metastasis. However, the mechanisms responsible for coordinating and regulating PANX1 function remain unclear. Here, we demonstrated a direct interaction between the C-terminal region of PANX1 and the N-terminal portion of β-catenin, a key transcription factor in the Wnt pathway. At the protein level, β-catenin was significantly decreased when PANX1 was either knocked down or inhibited by two PANX1 blockers, Probenecid and Spironolactone. Immunofluorescence imaging showed a disrupted pattern of β-catenin localization at the cell membrane in PANX1-deficient cells, and transcription of several Wnt target genes, including MITF, was suppressed. In addition, a mitochondrial stress test revealed that the metabolism of PANX1-deficient cells was impaired, indicating a role for PANX1 in the regulation of the melanoma cell metabolic profile. Taken together, our data show that PANX1 directly interacts with β-catenin to modulate growth and metabolism in melanoma cells. These findings provide mechanistic insight into PANX1-mediated melanoma progression and may be applicable to other contexts where PANX1 and β-catenin interact as a potential new component of the Wnt signaling pathway.

Abstract
Pannexin 1 (PANX1) is a channel-forming glycoprotein expressed in many tissues including the skin. PANX1 channels allow the passage of ions and molecules up to 1 kDa, including ATP and other metabolites. In this study, we show that PANX1 is highly expressed in human melanoma tumors at all stages of disease progression, as well as in patient-derived cells and established melanoma cell lines. Reducing PANX1 protein levels using shRNA or inhibiting channel function with the channel blockers, carbenoxolone (CBX) and probenecid (PBN), significantly decreased cell growth and migration, and increased melanin production in A375-P and A375-MA2 cell lines. Further, treatment of A375-MA2 tumors in chicken embryo xenografts with CBX or PBN significantly reduced melanoma tumor weight and invasiveness. Blocking PANX1 channels with PBN reduced ATP release in A375-P cells, suggesting a potential role for PANX1 in purinergic signaling of melanoma cells. In addition, cell-surface biotinylation assays indicate that there is an intracellular pool of PANX1 in melanoma cells. PANX1 likely modulates signaling through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, because β-catenin levels were significantly decreased upon PANX1 silencing. Collectively, our findings identify a role for PANX1 in controlling growth and tumorigenic properties of melanoma cells contributing to signaling pathways that modulate melanoma progression.

Abstract
Background Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) soma death is a consequence of optic nerve damage, including in optic neuropathies like glaucoma. The activation of the innate immune network in the retina after nerve damage has been linked to RGC pathology. Since the eye is immune privileged, innate immune functions are the responsibility of the glia, specifically the microglia, astrocytes, and Müller cells that populate the retina. Glial activation, leading to the production of inflammatory cytokines, is a hallmark feature of retinal injury resulting from optic nerve damage and purported to elicit secondary degeneration of RGC somas. Methods A mouse model of optic nerve crush (ONC) was used to study retinal glial activation responses. RGC apoptosis was blocked using Bax-deficient mice. Glial activation responses were monitored by quantitative PCR and immunofluorescent labeling in retinal sections of activation markers. ATP signaling pathways were interrogated using P2X receptor agonists and antagonists and Pannexin 1 (Panx1)-deficient mice with RGC-specific deletion. Results ONC induced activation of both macroglia and microglia in the retina, and both these responses were dramatically muted if RGC death was blocked by deletion of the Bax gene. Macroglial, but not microglial, activation was modulated by purinergic receptor activation. Release of ATP after optic nerve damage was not mediated by PANX1 channels in RGCs. Conclusions RGC death in response to ONC plays a principal stimulatory role in the retinal glial activation response.
