This tribute article presents selected immunocytochemical and transmission electron microscope data on the location of ATP-gated P2X receptor in the rat brain, as studied in the 1990s in Prof G. Burnstock's laboratory at University College London. There are examples of immuno-ultrastructural findings and introductory information about pre- and post-synaptic location of P2X receptors in the rat cerebellum and endocrine hypothalamus to support the concept of purinergic transmission in the central nervous system.

Fundamental progresses have been made in pain research with a comprehensive understanding of the neuronal pathways which convey painful sensations from the periphery and viscera to the central nervous system and of the descending modulating pathways. Nevertheless, many patients still suffer from various painful conditions, which are often associated to other primary pathologies, and get no or poor relief from available painkillers. Thus, the interest of many researchers has concentrated on new and promising cellular targets and biochemical pathways.
