Abstract
P2X7Rs are functionally regulated and contributed to ATP-induced uterine contraction. The sensitivity of the myometrium to ATP increases as pregnancy progresses and it involves Ca2+ influx and Ca2+ release pathways. The clear effects of ATP on contractility suggest its physiological requirement for successful labor and postpartum involution.
