Secretomotor reflexes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are important in the lubrication and movement of digested products, absorption of nutrients, or the diarrhea that occurs in diseases to flush out unwanted microbes. Mechanical or chemical stimulation of mucosal sensory enterochromaffin (EC) cells triggers release of serotonin (5-HT) (among other mediators) and initiates local reflexes by activating intrinsic primary afferent neurons of the submucous plexus. Signals are conveyed to interneurons or secretomotor neurons to stimulate chloride and fluid secretion. Inputs from myenteric neurons modulate secretory rates and reflexes, and special neural circuits exist to coordinate secretion with motility. Cellular components of secretomotor reflexes variably express purinergic receptors for adenosine (A1, A2a, A2b, or A3 receptors) or the nucleotides adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP), or uridine diphosphate (UDP) (P2X(1-7), P2Y(2), P2Y(4), P2Y(6), P2Y(12) receptors). This review focuses on the emerging concepts in our understanding of purinergic regulation at these receptors, and in particular of mechanosensory reflexes. Purinergic inhibitory (A(1), A(3), P2Y(12)) or excitatory (A(2), P2Y(1)) receptors modulate mechanosensitive 5-HT release. Excitatory (P2Y(1), other P2Y, P2X) or inhibitory (A(1), A(3)) receptors are involved in mechanically evoked secretory reflexes or "neurogenic diarrhea." Distinct neural (pre- or postsynaptic) and non-neural distribution profiles of P2X(2), P2X(3), P2X(5), P2Y(1), P2Y(2), P2Y(4), P2Y(6), or P2Y(12) receptors, and for some their effects on neurotransmission, suggests their role in GI secretomotor function. Luminal A(2b), P2Y(2), P2Y(4), and P2Y(6) receptors are involved in fluid and Cl(-), HCO(3) (-), K(+), or mucin secretion. Abnormal receptor expression in GI diseases may be of clinical relevance. Adenosine A(2a) or A(3) receptors are emerging as therapeutic targets in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and gastroprotection; they can also prevent purinergic receptor abnormalities and diarrhea. Purines are emerging as fundamental regulators of enteric secretomotor reflexes in health and disease. 相似文献

P2X2 , P2X2–2 and P2X5 receptor subunit expression and function in rat thoracolumbar sympathetic neurons 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The present study investigated the pharmacological properties of excitatory P2X receptors and P2X(2) and P2X(5) receptor subunit expression in rat-cultured thoracolumbar sympathetic neurons. In patch-clamp recordings, ATP (3-1000 microM; applied for 1 s) induced inward currents in a concentration-dependent manner. Pyridoxal-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonate (PPADS; 30 microM) counteracted the ATP response. In contrast to ATP, alpha,beta-meATP (30 microM; for 1 s) was virtually ineffective. Prolonged application of ATP (100 microM; 10 s) induced receptor desensitization in a significant proportion of sympathetic neurons in a manner typical for P2X(2-2) splice variant-mediated responses. Using single-cell RT-PCR, P2X(2), P2X(2-2) and P2X(5) mRNA expression was detectable in individual tyrosine hydroxylase-positive neurons; coexpression of both P2X(2) isoforms was not observed. Laser scanning microscopy revealed both P2X(2) and P2X(5) immunoreactivity in virtually every TH-positive neuron. P2X(2) immunoreactivity was largely distributed over the cell body, whereas P2X(5) immunoreactivity was most distinctly located close to the nucleus. In summary, the present study demonstrates the expression of P2X(2), P2X(2-2) and P2X(5) receptor subunits in rat thoracolumbar neurons. The functional data in conjunction with a preferential membranous localization of P2X(2)/P2X(2-2) compared with P2X(5) suggest that the excitatory P2X responses are mediated by P2X(2) and P2X(2-2) receptors. Apparently there exist two types of P2X(2) receptor-bearing sympathetic neurons: one major population expressing the unspliced isoform and another minor population expressing the P2X(2-2) splice variant. 相似文献

Adenosine 5'-triphosphate disodium (ATP) gated P2X receptors, especially the subtype P2X(3), play a key role in transmission of pain signals in neuropathic pain, ATP has been documented to play a significant role in the progression of pain signals, suggesting that control of these pathways through electroacupuncture (EA) is potentially an effective treatment for chronic neuropathic pain. EA has been accepted to effectively manage chronic pain by applying the stimulating current to acupoints through acupuncture needles. To determine the significance of EA on neuropathic pain mediated by P2X(3) receptors in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal withdrawal latency (TWL) were recorded, and the expression of P2X(3) receptors in the DRG neurons was assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridization (ISH). In addition, the currents which were evoked in DRG neurons isolated from rats following chronic constriction injury (CCI) by the P2X(3) receptors agonists i.e. ATP and α,β-methylen-ATP (α,β-meATP) were examined through the experimental use of whole cell patch clamp recording. The present study demonstrates that EA treatment can increase the MWT and TWL values and decrease the expression of P2X(3) receptors in DRG neurons in CCI rats. Simultaneously, EA treatment attenuates the ATP and α,β-meATP evoked currents. EA may be expected to induce an apparent induce analgesic effect by decreasing expression and inhibiting P2X(3) receptors in DRG neurons of CCI rats. There is a similar effect on analgesic effect between rats with contralateral EA and those with ipsilateral EA. 相似文献

The effects of 17beta-estradiol on the alpha,beta-me ATP-induced currents were studied on dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons using whole-cell recording technique. Three types of currents (transient, sustained or biphasic) were evoked by alpha,beta-me ATP in acutely dissociated DRG neurons. When neurons were pre-incubated with 17beta-estradiol (10-1000 nM) for 4 min, an inhibition of the transient current and the transient component of the biphasic current was observed. In contrast, 17beta-estradiol did not have any significant effect on the sustained current evoked by alpha,beta-meATP. The inhibitory effects were concentration-dependent, reversible and could be blocked by the estradiol receptor inhibitor, ICI 182,780 (1 microM). However, bovine serum albumin-conjugated 17beta-estradiol (17beta-estradiol-BSA, 10 nM) failed to mimic the effects of 17beta-estradiol. 17alpha-estradiol, the inactive isoform, did not have significant effects on alphabeta-meATP-induced currents, either. Sustained currents induced by ATP (100 microM) in nodose ganglion (NG), superior cervical ganglion (SCG) and otic ganglion (OTG) neurons were not affected by 17beta-estradiol. These results suggest that the female gonadal hormone, 17beta-estradiol, might participate in control of pain by modulating P2X3 receptor-mediated events in sensory neurons. 相似文献

Single GABAergic synaptic terminals from rat midbrain exhibit functional P2X and dinucleotide receptors, able to induce GABA secretion 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
GABAergic terminals from rat midbrain characterized by immunolocalization of glutamic acid decarboxylase and/or the vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter respond to ATP or P(1),P(5)-di(adenosine-5') pentaphosphate (Ap(5)A) with an increase in the intrasynaptosomal calcium concentration measured by a microfluorimetric technique in single synaptic terminals. The ATP response is mediated through the activation of P2X receptors with an abundant presence of P2X(3) subunits. Ap(5)A, however, exerts its effects by acting through a different receptor termed the dinucleotide receptor. Both receptors, once activated in the presence of extrasynaptosomal calcium, induce a concentration-dependent GABA release from synaptosomal populations with EC(50) values of 16 and 20 microM for ATP and Ap(5)A, respectively. Specific inhibition of GABA release is obtained with pyridoxal phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid (80 microM) on the ATP effect and with P(1),P(5)-di(inosine-5') pentaphosphate (100 nM) on the dinucleotide receptor. 相似文献

Membrane currents and changes in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) were measured in HEK293 cells transfected with the human P2X3 receptor (HEK293-hP2X3). RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry indicated the additional presence of endogenous P2Y1 and to some extent P2Y4 receptors. P2 receptor agonists induced inward currents in HEK293-hP2X3 cells with the rank order of potency alpha,beta-meATP approximately ATP > ADP-beta-S > UTP. A comparable rise in [Ca2+]i was observed after the slow superfusion of ATP, ADP-beta-S and UTP; alpha,beta-meATP was ineffective. These data, in conjunction with results obtained by using the P2 receptor antagonists TNP-ATP, PPADS and MRS2179 indicate that the current response to alpha,beta-meATP is due to P2X3 receptor activation, while the ATP-induced rise in [Ca2+]i is evoked by P2Y1 and P2Y4 receptor activation. TCE depressed the alpha,beta-meATP current in a manner compatible with a non-competitive antagonism. The ATP-induced increase of [Ca2+]i was much less sensitive to the inhibitory effect of TCE than the current response to alpha,beta-meATP. The present study indicates that in HEK293-hP2X3 cells, TCE, but not ethanol, potently inhibits ligand-gated P2X3 receptors and, in addition, moderately interferes with G protein-coupled P2Y1 and P2Y4 receptors. Such an effect may be relevant for the interruption of pain transmission in dorsal root ganglion neurons following ingestion of chloral hydrate or trichloroethylene. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on the production of interleukin (IL)-6, whose molecules are capable of stimulating the development of osteoclasts from their hematopoietic precursors as well as are involved in signal transduction systems in human osteoblastic SaM-1 cells. These human osteoblasts constitutively expressed P2X4, P2X5, P2X6, P2Y2, P2Y5, and P2Y6 purinergic receptors. ATP increased gene- and protein-expression of IL-6 in SaM-1 cells. The expression of the IL-6 mRNA was maximal at 1h, and the increase in IL-6 synthesis in response to ATP (10-100 microM) occurred in a concentration-dependent manner. Over the same concentration range of the nucleotide that was effective for IL-6 synthesis, ATP caused an increase in the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)), which increase was inhibited by pretreatment with suramin, a P2Y receptor antagonist, or 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor blocker, but not by the extracellular Ca(2+)-chelating agent EGTA. The pretreatment of SaM-1 cells with suramin or 2-APB also inhibited the increase in IL-6 synthesis in response to ATP. These findings suggest that extracellular ATP-induced IL-6 synthesis occurs through P2Y receptors and mobilization of Ca(2+) from internal stores in human osteoblastic cells. 相似文献

The present work reports that activation of P2X7 receptor induces synaptic vesicle release in granule neurons and phosphorylation of synapsin-I by calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), which in turn modulates secretory event. ATP, in absence of magnesium, induced a concentration-dependent glutamate release with an EC50 value of 1.95 microM. The involvement of P2X7 receptor was suggested when maximal secretory response was significantly reduced by the selective P2X7 antagonist Brilliant Blue G (BBG; 100 nM) and abolished by removing extracellular Ca2+. The involvement of P2X7 receptor on synaptic vesicle release was confirmed by measuring the release of FM 1-43 dye. In this case, pharmacological activation of P2X7 was achieved with the more selective agonist 2'-3'-o-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)-adenosine 5'-triphosphate (BzATP; 100 microM) showing a significant FM 1-43 release that was blocked by BBG (100 nM), by Zn2+ ions (100 microM), both P2X7 blockers, but not by suramin (100 microM), antagonist of P2X1, P2X2, P2X3 and P2X5. In addition, BzATP, through P2X7 receptor activation, significantly increased the phosphorylation of synapsin-I, the main presynaptic target of CaMKII. Both effects mediated by BzATP were inhibited by the CaMKII inhibitors KN-62 (10 microM) and KN-93 (10 microM). These results suggest, therefore, that Ca2+ entrance mediated by P2X7 receptor induces glutamate release and in parallel synapsin-I phosphorylation. 相似文献

In many brain regions, Ca(2+) influx through presynaptic P2X receptors influences GABA release from interneurones. In patch-clamp recordings of Purkinje cells (PCs) in rat cerebellar slices, broad spectrum P2 receptor antagonists, PPADS (30microM) or suramin (12microM), result in a decreased amplitude and increased failure rate of minimal evoked GABAergic synaptic currents from basket cells. The effect is mimicked by desensitizing P2X1/3-containing receptors with alpha,beta-methylene ATP. This suggests presynaptic facilitation of GABA release via P2XR-mediated Ca(2+) influx activated by endogenously released ATP. In contrast, activation of P2Y4 receptors (using UTP, 30microM, but not P2Y1 or P2Y6 receptor ligands) results in inhibition of GABA release. Immunological studies reveal the presence of most known P2Rs in >or=20% of GABAergic terminals in the cerebellum. P2X3 receptors and P2Y4 receptors occur in approximately 60% and 50% of GABAergic synaptosomes respectively and are localized presynaptically. Previous studies report that PC output is also influenced by postsynaptic purinergic receptors located on both PCs and interneurones. The high Ca(2+) permeability of the P2X receptor and the ability of ATP to influence intracellular Ca(2+) levels via P2Y receptor-mediated intracellular pathways make ATP the ideal transmitter for the multisite bidirectional modulation of the cerebellar cortical neuronal network. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to elucidate the mechanisms by which ATP increases guinea pig gallbladder smooth muscle (GBSM) excitability. We evaluated changes in membrane potential and action potential (AP) frequency in GBSM by use of intracellular recording. Application of ATP (100 microM) caused membrane depolarization and a significant increase in AP frequency that were not sensitive to block by tetrodotoxin (0.5 microM). The nonselective P2 antagonist, suramin (100 microM), blocked the excitatory response, resulting in decreased AP frequency in the presence of ATP. The excitatory response to ATP was not altered by pyridoxal-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2,4-disulfonic acid (30 microM), a nonselective P2X antagonist. UTP also caused membrane depolarization and increased AP frequency, with a similar dose-response relationship as ATP. RT-PCR demonstrated that the P2Y(4), but not P2Y(2), receptor subtype is expressed in guinea pig gallbladder muscularis. ATP induced excitation was blocked by indomethacin (10 microM) and the cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 inhibitor SC-560 (300 nM), but not the COX-2 inhibitor nimesulide (500 nM). These data suggest that ATP stimulates P2Y(4) receptors within the gallbladder muscularis and, in turn, stimulate prostanoid production via COX-1 leading to increased excitability of GBSM. 相似文献

Increased 5-HT3-mediated signalling in pelvic afferent neurons from mice deficient in P2X2 and/or P2X3 receptor subunits 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Extracellular ATP and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) are both involved in visceral sensory pathways by interacting with P2X and 5-HT3 receptors, respectively. We have investigated the changes in P2X and 5-HT3-mediated signalling in pelvic afferent neurons in mice deficient in P2X2 and/or P2X3 subunits by whole-cell recording of L6–S2 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and by multi-unit recording of pelvic afferents of the colorectum. In wildtype DRG neurons, ATP evoked transient, sustained or mixed (biphasic) inward currents. Transient currents were absent in P2X3
−/− neurons, whereas sustained currents were absent in P2X2
−/− DRG neurons. Neither transient nor sustained currents were observed following application of ATP or α,β-methylene ATP (α,β-meATP) in P2X2/P2X3
Dbl−/− DRG neurons. 5-HT was found to induce a fast inward current in 63% of DRG neurons from wildtype mice, which was blocked by tropisetron, a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. The percentage of DRG neurons responding to 5-HT was significantly increased in P2X 2
−/−, P2X3
−/− and P2X2/P2X3
Dbl−/− mice, and the amplitude of 5-HT response was significantly increased in P2X2/P2X3
Dbl−/− mice. The pelvic afferent response to colorectal distension was attenuated in P2X2/P2X3
Dbl−/− mice, but the response to serosal application of 5-HT was enhanced. Furthermore, tropisetron resulted in a greater reduction in pelvic afferent responses to colorectal distension in the P2X2/P2X3
Dbl−/− preparations. These data suggest that P2X receptors containing the P2X2 and/or P2X3 subunits mediate purinergic activation of colorectal afferents and that 5-HT signalling in pelvic afferent neurons is up-regulated in mice lacking P2X2 or P2X3 receptor genes. This effect is more pronounced when both subunits are absent. 相似文献

Expression of functional purinergic receptors in pulmonary neuroepithelial bodies and their role in hypoxia chemotransmission 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Adenine nucleotides act through specific cell surface receptors to invoke a variety of biological responses. Here we show that cells of neuroepithelial bodies (NEB), presumed O2 airway sensors in neonatal hamster lung, express functional P2X receptors (P2X-R). Positive immunostaining was detected in NEB cells using double-label immunohistochemistry with antibodies against P2X2 and P2X3 receptor subunits, which co-localized with serotonin (5-HT), a marker of NEB cells. For electrophysiological characterization of P2X2-R in NEB cells, fresh neonatal hamster lung slice preparation was used. Under whole-cell patch clamp, perfusion with ATP induced a concentration-dependent, non-desensitizing inward current (EC50=12 microM). Perfusion with alpha,beta-methylene ATP also induced a slow-desensitizing inward current (EC50=8.2 microM). Suramin (IC50 ca. 43 microM) and TNP-ATP (IC50 ca. 8 microM) blocked the currents evoked by both ATP and alpha,beta-methylene ATP. Using carbon fiber amperometry we observed that hypoxia and ATP induced 5-HT release from NEB cells and that this release was blocked by suramin. These data suggest that functional P2X2/3 heteromeric receptors are expressed in NEB cells. The possible function of these purinoreceptors in NEB cells could include modulation of hypoxia chemotransmission. 相似文献

The modulatory effects of Zn(2+) and other divalent cations on the ATP-induced responses of preganglionic neurons acutely dissociated from the rat dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV) were examined using a nystatin-perforated patch technique under voltage-clamp. DMV neurons were identified by back-filling of DiI placed on the vagal bundle at the neck. Zn(2+) exerts a concentration-dependent effect on P2X receptor-mediated current (I(ATP)): a potentiation by low concentrations of Zn(2+) (< or = 50 microM) and an inhibition by high concentrations (> 50 microM). Inhibition of the ATP response was associated with a prolongation of the rising phase of I(ATP). Cu(2+) mimicked Zn(2+) regarding the biphasic modulation of I(ATP). On the other hand, Ni(2+) potentiated, but failed to inhibit, the ATP response even at a concentration of 3 mM. Quantitative RT-PCR revealed the similarity of P2X(2) mRNA expression between the DMV and superior cervical ganglion (SCG) but not in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and hypoglossal nucleus (XII). The results from the electrophysiological and molecular approaches suggest that functional P2X receptors expressed in DMV neurons are characterized mainly by the P2X(2) and P2X(2/6) subtype. DMV neurons possess similar P2X receptor characteristics to SCG neurons. 相似文献

The effects of purinergic agonists on insulin release are controversial in the literature. In our studies (mainly using INS-1 cells, but also using rat pancreatic islets), ATP had a dual effect on insulin release depending on the ATP concentration: increasing insulin release (EC50 approximately/= 0.0032 microM) and inhibiting insulin release (EC50 approximately/= 0.32 microM) at both 5.6 and 8.3 mM glucose. This is compatible with the view that either two different receptors are involved, or the cells desensitize and (or) the effect of an inhibitory degradation product such as adenosine (ectonucleotidase effect) emerges. The same dual effects of ATP on insulin release were obtained using rat pancreatic islets instead of INS-1 cells. ADPbetaS, which is less degradable than ATP and rather specific for P2Y1 receptors, had a dual effect on insulin release at 8.3 mM glucose: stimulatory (EC50 approximately/= 0.02 microM) and inhibitory (EC50 approximately/= 0.32 microM). The effectiveness of this compound indicates the possible involvement of a P2Y1 receptor. 2-Methylthio-ATP exhibited an insulinotropic effect at very high concentrations (EC50 approximately/= 15 microM at 8.3 mM glucose). This indicated that distinct P2X or the P2Y1 receptor may be involved in these insulin-secreting cells. UTP increased insulin release (EC50 approximately/= 2 microM) very weakly, indicating that a P2U receptor (P2X3 or possibly a P2Y2 or P2Y4) are not likely to be involved. Suramin (50 microM) antagonized the insulinotropic effect of ATP (0.01 microM) and UTP (0.32 microM). Since suramin is not selective, the data indicated that various P2X and P2Y receptors may be involved. PPADS (100 microM), a P2X and P2Y1,4,6 receptor antagonist, was ineffective using either low or high concentrations of ATP and ADPbetaS, which combined with the suramin data hints at a P2Y receptor effect of the compounds. Adenosine inhibited insulin release in a concentration-dependent manner. DPCPX (100 microM), an adenosine (A1) receptor antagonist, inhibited the inhibitory effects of both adenosine and of high concentrations of ATP. Adenosine deaminase (1 U/mL) abolished the inhibitory effect of high ATP concentrations, indicating the involvement of the degradation product adenosine. Repetitive addition of ATP did not desensitize the stimulatory effect of ATP. U-73122 (2 microM), a PLC inhibitor, abolished the ATP effect at low concentrations. The data indicate that ATP at low concentrations is effective via P2Y receptors and the PLC-system and not via P2X receptors; it inhibits insulin release at high concentrations by being metabolized to adenosine. 相似文献

Neuropathic pain usually is persistent and no effective treatment. ATP plays an important role in the initiation of pain. P2X(3) receptors are localized in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and activated by extracellular ATP. Sodium ferulate (SF) is an active principle from Chinese herbal medicine and has anti-inflammatory activities. This study observed the effects of SF on the nociceptive facilitation of the primary sensory afferent after chronic constriction injury (CCI) mediated by P2X(3) receptor. In this study, the content of ATP in DRG neurons was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). P2X(3) agonist-activated currents in DRG neurons was recorded by the whole-cell patch-clamp skill. The expression of P2X(3) mRNA in DRG neurons was analyzed by in situ hybridization. The ATP content of DRG was increased after CCI. In CCI rats treated with SF, the content of ATP in DRG neurons was reduced. SF decreased the increment of P2X(3) agonist-activated currents and P2X(3) mRNA expression in DRG neurons during CCI. SF may inhibit the initiation of pain and primary afferent sensitization mediated by P2X(3) receptor during CCI. 相似文献

Supersensitivity of P2X receptors in cerebrocortical cell cultures after in vitro ischemia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Wirkner K Köfalvi A Fischer W Günther A Franke H Gröger-Arndt H Nörenberg W Madarász E Vizi ES Schneider D Sperlágh B Illes P 《Journal of neurochemistry》2005,95(5):1421-1437
Neuronally enriched primary cerebrocortical cultures were exposed to glucose-free medium saturated with argon (in vitro ischemia) instead of oxygen (normoxia). Ischemia did not alter P2X7 receptor mRNA, although serum deprivation clearly increased it. Accordingly, P2X7 receptor immunoreactivity (IR) of microtubuline-associated protein 2 (MAP2)-IR neurons or of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-IR astrocytes was not affected; serum deprivation augmented the P2X7 receptor IR only in the astrocytic, but not the neuronal cell population. However, ischemia markedly increased the ATP- and 2'-3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)-adenosine 5'-triphosphate (BzATP)-induced release of previously incorporated [3H]GABA. Both Brilliant Blue G and oxidized ATP inhibited the release of [3H]GABA caused by ATP application; the Brilliant Blue G-sensitive, P2X7 receptor-mediated fraction, was much larger after ischemia than after normoxia. Whereas ischemic stimulation failed to alter the amplitude of ATP- and BzATP-induced small inward currents recorded from a subset of non-pyramidal neurons, BzATP caused a more pronounced increase in the frequency of miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (mIPSCs) after ischemia than after normoxia. Brilliant Blue G almost abolished the effect of BzATP in normoxic neurons. Since neither the amplitude of mIPSCs nor that of the muscimol-induced inward currents was affected by BzATP, it is assumed that BzATP acts at presynaptic P2X7 receptors. Finally, P2X7 receptors did not enhance the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration either in proximal dendrites or in astrocytes, irrespective of the normoxic or ischemic pre-incubation conditions. Hence, facilitatory P2X7 receptors may be situated at the axon terminals of GABAergic non-pyramidal neurons. When compared with normoxia, ischemia appears to markedly increase P2X7 receptor-mediated GABA release, which may limit the severity of the ischemic damage. At the same time we did not find an accompanying enhancement of P2X7 mRNA or protein expression, suggesting that receptors may become hypersensitive because of an increased efficiency of their transduction pathways. 相似文献

Activation and desensitization of the recombinant P2X1 receptor at nanomolar ATP concentrations 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Activation and desensitization kinetics of the rat P2X1 receptor at nanomolar ATP concentrations were studied in Xenopus oocytes using two-electrode voltage-clamp recording. The solution exchange system used allowed complete and reproducible solution exchange in <0.5 s. Sustained exposure to 1-100 nM ATP led to a profound desensitization of P2X1 receptors. At steady-state, desensitization could be described by the Hill equation with a K1/2 value of 3.2 +/- 0.1 nM. Also, the ATP dependence of peak currents could be described by a Hill equation with an EC50 value of 0.7 microM. Accordingly, ATP dose-effect relationships of activation and desensitization practically do not overlap. Recovery from desensitization could be described by a monoexponential function with the time-constant tau = 11.6 +/-1.0 min. Current transients at 10-100 nM ATP, which elicited 0.1-8.5% of the maximum response, were compatible with a linear three-state model, C-O-D (closed-open-desensitized), with an ATP concentration-dependent activation rate and an ATP concentration-independent (constant) desensitization rate. In the range of 18-300 nM ATP, the total areas under the elicited current transients were equal, suggesting that P2X1 receptor desensitization occurs exclusively via the open conformation. Hence, our results are compatible with a model, according to which P2X1 receptor activation and desensitization follow the same reaction pathway, i.e., without significant C to D transition. We assume that the K1/2 of 3.2 nM for receptor desensitization reflects the nanomolar ATP affinity of the receptor found by others in agonist binding experiments. The high EC50 value of 0.7 microM for receptor activation is a consequence of fast desensitization combined with nonsteady-state conditions during recording of peak currents, which are the basis of the dose-response curve. Our results imply that nanomolar extracellular ATP concentrations can obscure P2X1 receptor responses by driving a significant fraction of the receptor pool into a long-lasting refractory closed state. 相似文献

The P2 receptor antagonists pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid (PPADS; 30 microM), suramin (0.1 mM) and Reactive blue 2 (30 microM) all raised vascular tone and could not be utilized and the antagonist 2'-O-(trinitrophenyl) ATP (TNP-ATP; 0.1 microM) had no effect on responses to the ATP analogues. alpha,beta-MeATP (3 microMx3) desensitised responses to alpha,beta-meATP (10 microM) and beta,gamma-meATP (0.3 mM), but not to ATP (0.3 mM) or 2-meSATP (30 microM). On pre-constricted aorta (EC50 concentration of either ACh or Adr), adenosine (1 microM-1 mM), the A1-selective agonist N6-cyclopentyl adenosine (CPA; 1-300 microM) [but not the A2- and A3-selective agonists CGS 21680 and IB-MECA respectively (both up to 30 microM)] and sodium nitroprusside (10 nM-100 microM) produced vasodilatation. Adenosine vasodilatation was antagonised by 8-p-sulfophenyl-theophylline (8-pSPT; 30 microM) but not by N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 0.1 mM). ATP (up to 0.3 mM), 2-meSATP (up to 10 microM) and UTP (up to 1 mM) were not vasodilators. In summary, A1 receptors mediating relaxation and excitatory P2X1 receptors were identified in the smooth muscle of the lizard aorta. However, in contrast to mammalian aorta, P2Y receptors on endothelial cells mediating vasodilatation via nitric oxide do not appear to be present. 相似文献

We examined bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) for the functional expression of P2X receptors, the ATP-gated cation channels. We identified the P2X subtypes present in BAECs using RT-PCR. mRNA was present for only three of seven family members: P2X4, P2X5, and P2X7. We then characterized agonist-activated currents in whole cell and outside-out patch recordings using 2-methyl-thio-ATP (MeSATP) as a P2X4 and P2X5 receptor agonist and 2',3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)ATP (BzATP) as a P2X7 receptor agonist. MeSATP (10-20 microM) produced current with characteristics of P2X4 receptors. The current was an inwardly rectifying current, reversed near 0 mV, slowly desensitized, was not blocked by suramin (300 microM) or reactive blue (60 microM), and had a single channel conductance of 36 pS. BzATP (10-100 microM), on the other hand, activated a 9-pS channel with sustained activity in the continued presence of the agonist. BzATP-activated current was blocked by reactive blue (60 microM) and by suramin (approximately 50% block at 300 microM). We confirmed, by immunocytochemistry, the presence of P2X4 and P2X7 protein. The agonists failed, however, to induce significant uptake of the large molecule YO-PRO, indicating the lack of pore development that has been demonstrated for P2X7 and P2X4 in response to agonist in some cell types. 相似文献
