This study characterizes and examines the P2 receptor-mediated signal transduction pathway of a rat brain-derived type 2 astrocyte cell line, RBA-2. ATP induced Ca2+ influx and activated phospholipase D (PLD). The ATP-stimulated Ca2+ influx was inhibited by pretreating cells with P2 receptor antagonist, pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid (PPADS), in a concentration-dependent manner. The agonist 2'- and 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)adenosine 5'-triphosphate (BzATP) stimulated the largest increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i); ATP, 2-methylthioadenosine triphosphate tetrasodium, and ATPgammaS were much less effective, whereas UTP, ADP, alpha,beta-methylene-ATP, and beta,gamma-methylene-ATP were ineffective. Furthermore, removal of extracellular Mg2+ enhanced the ATP- and BzATP-stimulated increases in [Ca2+]i. BzATP stimulated PLD in a concentration- and time-dependent manner that could be abolished by removal of extracellular Ca2+ and was inhibited by suramin, PPADS, and oxidized ATP. In addition, PLD activities were activated by the Ca2+ mobilization agent, ionomycin, in an extracellular Ca2+ concentration-dependent manner. Both staurosporine and prolonged phorbol ester treatment inhibited BzATP-stimulated PLD activity. Taken together, these data indicate that activation of the P2X7 receptors induces Ca2+ influx and stimulates a Ca2+-dependent PLD in RBA-2 astrocytes. Furthermore, protein kinase C regulates this PLD. 相似文献

PC12 cells, a rat pheochromocytoma cell line, has been reported to release norepinephrine in response to extracellular ATP in the presence of extracellular Ca2+. The potency order of ATP analogues was adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) greater than ATP greater than adenosine 5'-O-(1-thiotriphosphate) = 2-methylthioadenosine 5'-triphosphate (MeSATP) greater than 2'- and 3'-O-(4-benzoyl-benzoyl)ATP (BzATP) greater than ADP greater than 5-adenylylimidodiphosphate. Adenosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate), beta, gamma-methyleneadenosine 5'-triphosphate, AMP and adenosine were inactive. The ATP action in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, suggests a small but appreciable contribution of intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, for norepinephrine release. However, for some ATP derivatives, like BzATP, almost no contribution of the phospholipase C-Ca2+ pathway is suggested, based on their low activity in inositol phosphates production. To identify the ATP-receptor protein, PC12 cell membranes were photoaffinity-labeled with [32P]BzATP. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that a 53-kDa protein labeling was inhibited by ATP and its derivatives, as well as by P2-antagonists, suramin and reactive blue 2, which inhibit the nucleotide-induced norepinephrine release. The inhibitory activity of the nucleotides was, in parallel with their potency, to induce norepinephrine release. Despite their inability to release norepinephrine, GTP and GTP gamma S inhibited the BzATP labeling, suggesting the participation of a putative G protein in the ATP-receptor-mediated actions. We suggest that the 53-kDa protein on the PC12 cell surface is an ATP receptor, which mediates the norepinephrine release, depending, mainly, on extracellular Ca2+ gating. 相似文献

P2X7 nucleotide receptor activation enhances IFN gamma-induced type II nitric oxide synthase activity in BV-2 microglial cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Under normal and pathological conditions, brain cells release nucleotides that regulate a wide range of cellular responses due to activation of P2 nucleotide receptors. In this study, the effect of extracellular nucleotides on IFN gamma-induced NO release in murine BV-2 microglial cells was investigated. BV-2 cells expressed mRNA for metabotropic P2Y and ionotropic P2X receptors. Among the P2 receptor agonists tested, ATP, ADP, 2',3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)-ATP (BzATP), and 2-methylthio-ATP (2-MeSATP), but not UTP, enhanced IFN gamma-induced iNOS expression and NO production, suggesting that the uridine nucleotide receptors P2Y2 and P2Y6 are not involved in this response. U0126, an antagonist for MEK1/2, a kinase that phosphorylates the extracellular signal-regulated kinases ERK1/2, decreased IFN gamma-induced NO production. BzATP, a potent P2X7 receptor agonist, was more effective than ATP, ADP, or 2-MeSATP at enhancing IFN gamma-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Consistent with activation of the P2X7 receptor, periodate-oxidized ATP, a P2X7 receptor antagonist, and suramin, a non-specific P2 receptor antagonist, inhibited the effect of ATP or BzATP on IFN gamma-induced NO production, whereas pyridoxal-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid (PPADS), an antagonist of several P2X receptor subtypes, was ineffective. These results suggest that activation of P2X7 receptors may contribute to inflammatory responses in microglial cells seen in neurodegenerative diseases. 相似文献

P2X7 receptors are ATP-gated ion channels and play important roles in microglial functions in the brain. Activation of P2X7 receptors by ATP or its agonist BzATP induces Ca2+ influx from extracellular space, followed by the formation of non-selective membrane pores that is permeable to larger molecules, such as fluorescent dye. To determine whether phospholipase C (PLC) is involved in the activation of P2X7 receptors in microglial cells, U73122, a specific inhibitor of PLC, and its inactive analogue U73343 were examined on ATP and BzATP-induced channel and pore formation in an immortalized C57BL/6 mouse microglial cell line (MG6-1). ATP induced both a transient and a sustained increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in MG6-1 cells, whereas BzATP evoked only a sustained increase. U73122, but not U73343, inhibited the transient [Ca2+]i increase involving Ca2+ release from intracellular stores through PLC activation. In contrast, both U73122 and U73343 inhibited the sustained [Ca2+]i increase either prior or after the activation of P2X7 receptor channels by ATP and BzATP. In addition, these U-compounds inhibited the influx of ethidium bromide induced by ATP and BzATP, suggesting possible PLC-independent blockage of the process of P2X7-associated channel and pore formations by U-compounds in C57BL/6 mouse microglial cells. 相似文献

32P]3'-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl ATP as a photoaffinity label for a phospholipase C-coupled P2Y-purinergic receptor 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A 32P-labelled ATP analog, 3'-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl ATP (BzATP) previously shown to be an agonist at P2Y-purinergic receptors (Boyer J. L., and Harden T. K. (1989) Mol. Pharmacol. 36, 831-835), has been used as a probe for the P2Y-purinergic receptor on turkey erythrocyte plasma membranes. In the absence of light, [32P]BzATP bound to membranes with high affinity (KD approximately 5 nM), and in a saturable and reversible manner. The binding of [32P]BzATP was competitively inhibited by ATP and ADP analogs (2-methylthioadenosine 5'-triphosphate greater than adenosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) greater than BzATP greater than ATP greater than beta,gamma-methyleneadenosine 5'-triphosphate greater than 5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate) with pharmacological specificity consistent with that of a P2Y-purinergic receptor. Guanine nucleotides (guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) greater than GTP greater than guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) greater than GMP) noncompetitively inhibited the binding of radioligand. Photolysis of [32P] BzATP-prelabeled membranes resulted in incorporation of radiolabel into a protein of approximately 53,000 Da. Photolabeling was inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner by ATP and ADP analogs with a potency order characteristic for a P2Y-purinergic receptor and was modulated by guanine nucleotides. A protein of approximately 53,000 daltons was also labeled by [32P]BzATP in membranes from several other tissues known to express the P2Y-purinergic receptor. These results suggest that [32P]BzATP can be used to label covalently the P2Y-purinergic receptor and that this radioprobe will be a useful reagent for further characterization and purification of the P2Y-purinergic receptor. 相似文献

Bone remodeling is regulated by local factors and modulated by mechanical stimuli. Mechanical stimulation can cause release of ATP, an agent that stimulates osteoclastic resorption at low concentrations and inhibits at high concentrations. We examined whether osteoclasts express P2X(7) receptors, which are activated by high concentrations of ATP and can behave as ion channels or cause the formation of membrane pores. Rabbit osteoclasts were studied using patch clamp techniques. Successive or prolonged applications of 2'- & 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)-ATP (BzATP, a relatively potent P2X(7) agonist) or high concentrations of ATP caused the development of a slowly deactivating inward current. The underlying channel was permeable only to small cations, ruling out pore formation. Divalent cations reduced current magnitude, consistent with the presence of P2X(7) receptors, a finding confirmed in rat osteoclasts by immunocytochemistry. Successive applications of BzATP also elicited [Ca(2+)](i) elevations that required extracellular Ca(2+). The BzATP-induced current and the rise of [Ca(2+)](i) were temporally associated, and both were inhibited by PPADS, a P2X(7) antagonist. This study demonstrates that high concentrations of ATP activate P2X(7) receptors and provides the first functional evidence for an extracellular ligand-gated Ca(2+) influx pathway in osteoclasts. ATP released in response to mechanical stimuli may act through P2X(7) receptors to inhibit osteoclastic resorption. 相似文献

Fura-2 imaging of purinergic stimulation of non-differentiated neuronal human SH-SY5Y cells resulted in a rapid elevation in intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) that was dependent on extracellular Ca2+. The rank order of agonists (200 micro m) was as follows: 2',3'-O-(4-benzoyl-benzoyl)-ATP (BzATP) > ATP4- > ATP; whereas 2-(methylthio)-ATP, ADP, UTP and alpha,beta-methylene-ATP and beta,gamma-methylene-ATP were ineffective. The response to BzATP was inhibited by pyridoxal-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic-acid (PPADS, 1 micro m), 1-(N,O-bis[5-isoquinolinesulfonyl]-N-methyl-l-tyrosyl)-4-phenylpiperazine (KN-62, 100 nm) and 8-(3-benzamido-4-4-methylbenzamido)-naphthalene-1,3,5-trisulfonic-acid (suramin, 200 micro m). The presence of a P2X7 receptor was confirmed by western blot studies using anti-P2X7. EC50 for BzATP was 212 +/- 6 micro m. BzATP > 30 micro m induced an initial, transient increase in [Ca2+]i before a plateau level was reached. BzATP < 30 micro m only produced a monophasic increase to the plateau level. The transient phase was reduced by the introduction of nimodipine (3 micro m) and to a smaller degree by omega-conotoxin GVIA (1 micro m) despite an almost equal presence of L and N-type Ca2+-channels. In whole-cell voltage-clamp studies at - 90 mV, BzATP (300 micro m) produced a fast activating inward current with a similar pharmacology as observed with Fura-2 imaging. Current clamp studies showed a dose-dependent depolarization to BzATP and ATP4-. BzATP also triggered transmitter release. Thus, the human neuronal SH-SY5Y cell line expresses a functional P2X7 receptor coupled to activation of Ca2+-channels. 相似文献

ATP is co-localized with norepinephrine at the sympathetic nerve terminals and may be released simultaneously upon neuronal stimulation, which results in activation of purinergic receptors. To examine whether leptin synthesis and lipolysis are influenced by P2 purinergic receptor activation, the effects of ATP and other nucleotides on leptin secretion and glycerol release have been investigated in differentiated rat white adipocytes. Firstly, insulin-induced leptin secretion was inhibited by nucleotide treatment with the following efficacy order: 3'-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl ATP (BzATP) > ATP > UTP. Secondly, treatment of adipocytes with ATP increased both intracellular Ca(2+) concentration and cAMP content. Intracellular calcium concentration was increased by ATP and UTP, but not BzATP, an effect attributed to phospholipase C-coupled P2Y(2). On the other hand, cAMP was generated by treatment with BzATP and ATPgammaS, but not UTP, indicating functional expression of adenylyl cyclase-coupled P2Y(11) receptors in white adipocytes. Thirdly, lipolysis was significantly activated by BzATP and ATP, which correlated with the characteristics of the P2Y(11) subtype. Taken together, the data presented here suggest that white adipocytes express at least two different types of P2Y receptors and that activation of P2Y(11) receptor might be involved in inhibition of leptin production and stimulation of lipolysis, suggesting that purinergic transmission can play an important role in white adipocyte physiology. 相似文献

The P2X? receptor is an ATP-gated cation channel expressed by a number of cell types, including osteoblasts. Genetically modified mice with loss of P2X? function exhibit altered bone formation. Moreover, activation of P2X? in vitro stimulates osteoblast differentiation and matrix mineralization, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Because osteogenesis is associated with enhanced cellular metabolism, our goal was to characterize the effects of nucleotides on metabolic acid production (proton efflux) by osteoblasts. The P2X? agonist 2',3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)ATP (BzATP; 300 μM) induced dynamic membrane blebbing in MC3T3-E1 osteoblast-like cells (consistent with activation of P2X? receptors) but did not induce cell death. Using a Cytosensor microphysiometer, we found that 9-min exposure to BzATP (300 μM) caused a dramatic increase in proton efflux from MC3T3-E1 cells (~2-fold), which was sustained for at least 1 h. In contrast, ATP or UTP (100 μM), which activate P2 receptors other than P2X?, failed to elicit a sustained increase in proton efflux. Specific P2X? receptor antagonists A 438079 and A 740003 inhibited the sustained phase of the BzATP-induced response. Extracellular Ca2? was required during P2X? receptor stimulation for initiation of sustained proton efflux, and removal of extracellular glucose within the sustained phase abolished the elevation elicited by BzATP. In addition, inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase blocked the maintenance but not initiation of the sustained phase. Taken together, we conclude that brief activation of P2X? receptors on osteoblast-like cells triggers a dramatic, Ca2?-dependent stimulation of metabolic acid production. This increase in proton efflux is sustained and dependent on glucose and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity. 相似文献

Over three decades ago, Parker and Snow (Am J Physiol 223: 888-893, 1972) demonstrated that canine erythrocytes undergo an increase in cation permeability when incubated with extracellular ATP. In this study we examined the expression and function of the channel/pore-forming P2X(7) receptor on canine erythrocytes. P2X(7) receptors were detected on canine erythrocytes by immunocytochemistry and immunoblotting. Extracellular ATP induced (86)Rb(+) (K(+)) efflux from canine erythrocytes that was 20 times greater than that from human erythrocytes. The P2X(7) agonist 2'(3')-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)adenosine 5'-trisphosphate (BzATP) was more potent than ATP, and both stimulated (86)Rb(+) efflux from erythrocytes in a dose-dependent fashion with EC(50) values of approximately 7 and approximately 309 microM, respectively. 2-Methylthioadenosine 5'-triphosphate and adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) induced a smaller (86)Rb(+) efflux from erythrocytes, whereas ADP, AMP, UTP, or adenosine had no effect. ATP-induced (86)Rb(+) efflux from erythrocytes was inhibited by oxidized ATP, KN-62, and Brilliant blue G, known P2X(7) antagonists. ATP also induced uptake of choline(+) into canine erythrocytes that was 60 times greater than that into human erythrocytes. Overnight incubation of canine erythrocytes with ATP and BzATP induced phosphatidylserine exposure in >80% of cells and caused up to 20% hemolysis. In contrast, <30% of human erythrocytes showed phosphatidylserine exposure after overnight incubation with ATP and BzATP, and hemolysis was negligible. Flow cytometric measurements of ATP-induced ethidium(+) uptake showed that P2X(7) function was three times lower in canine monocytes than in human monocytes. These data show that the massive cation permeability increase induced by extracellular ATP in canine erythrocytes results from activation and opening of the P2X(7) receptor channel/pore. 相似文献

P2X7 nucleotide receptor mediation of membrane pore formation and superoxide generation in human promyelocytes and neutrophils 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Suh BC Kim JS Namgung U Ha H Kim KT 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2001,166(11):6754-6763
The P2X(7) receptor, which induces cation channel opening imparting significant permeability to Ca2+ and pore formation with changes in the plasma membrane potential, has been known to be rather restrictedly expressed in cells of the macrophage lineage including dendrites, mature macrophages, and microglial cells. However, we show here that the P2X(7) receptor is also expressed in cells of granulocytic lineage such as HL-60 promyelocytes, granulocytic differentiated cells, and neutrophils. Exposure of these cells to 2',3'-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl-ATP (BzATP) triggered intracellular Ca2+ rise through the mediation of phospholipase C-independent and suramin-sensitive pathways. BzATP also induced depolarization of the plasma membrane in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, whereas it hyperpolarized the cells in the presence of external Ca2+, probably in part through the activation of Ca2+-activated K(+) channels. However, the hyperpolarization phenomenon was markedly attenuated in differentiated HL-60 cells and neutrophils. RT-PCR and Northern blot analysis revealed the presence of P2X(7) receptors on both HL-60 and neutrophil-like cells. This was further confirmed by pore formation through which the uptake of Lucifer yellow and YO-PRO1 occurred on BzATP treatment. BzATP stimulated in a concentration-dependent manner the production of superoxide in differentiated HL-60 cells via a pathway partially dependent on extracellular Ca2+. Moreover, in human neutrophils, BzATP was a more effective inducer of superoxide generation than PMA. Taken together, this is a first demonstration of the expression of P2X(7) receptors on neutrophils, which shows that the receptor is functionally involved in the defense mechanism by activation of the respiratory burst pathway. 相似文献

Glutamate clearance by astrocytes is critical for controlling excitatory neurotransmission and ATP is an important mediator for neuron-astrocyte interaction. However, the effect of ATP on glutamate clearance has never been examined. Here we report that treatment of RBA-2 cells, a type-2-like astrocyte cell line, with ATP and the P2X(7) receptor selective agonist 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl) adenosine 5'-triphosphate (BzATP) decreased the Na+-dependent [3H]glutamate uptake within minutes. Mechanistic studies revealed that the decreases were augmented by removal of extracellular Mg2+ or Ca2+, and was restored by P2X7 selective antagonist , periodate-oxidized 2',3'-dialdehyde ATP (oATP), indicating that the decreases were mediated through P2X(7) receptors. Furthermore, stimulation of P2X7 receptors for 2 h inhibited both activity and protein expression of glutamine synthetase (GS), and oATP abolished the inhibition. In addition, removal of extracellular Ca(2+) and inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) restored the ATP-decreased GS expression but failed to restore the P2X(7)-decreased [3H]glutamate uptake. Therefore, P2X7-mediated intracellular signals play a role in the down-regulation of GS activity/expression. Activation of P2X7 receptors stimulated increases in intracellular Na+ concentration ([Na+](i)) suggesting that the P2X(7)-induced increases in [Na+](i) may affect the local Na+ gradient and decrease the Na+-dependent [3H]glutamate uptake. These findings demonstrate that the P2X7-mediated decreases in glutamate uptake and glutamine synthesis were mediated through distinct mechanisms in these cells. 相似文献

The purines ATP and adenosine can act as a coordinated team of transmitters. As extracellular adenosine is frequently derived from the enzymatic dephosphorylation of released ATP, the distinct actions of the two purines can be synchronized. In retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), stimulation of the P2X7 receptor for ATP leads to increased intracellular Ca2+ and death. Here we define the contrasting effects of adenosine and identify protective actions mediated by the A3 receptor. Adenosine attenuated the rise in Ca2+ produced by the P2X7 agonist 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)ATP (BzATP). Adenosine was also neuroprotective, increasing the survival of ganglion cells exposed to BzATP. The A3 adenosine receptor agonist 2-chloro-N6-(3-iodobenzyl)-adenosine-5'-N-methyluronimide (Cl-IB-MECA) mimicked the inhibition of the Ca2+ rise, whereas the A3 antagonist 3-Ethyl-5-benzyl-2-methyl-4-phenylethynyl-6-phenyl-1,4-(+/-)-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate (MRS-1191) reduced the protective effects of adenosine. Both Cl-IB-MECA and a second A3 receptor agonist IB-MECA reduced the cell loss triggered by BzATP. The actions of BzATP were mimicked by ATPgammaS, but not by ATP. In summary, adenosine can stop the rise in Ca2+ and cell death resulting from stimulation of the P2X7 receptor on RGCs, with the A3 adenosine receptor contributing to this protection. Hydrolysis of ATP into adenosine and perhaps inosine shifts the balance of purinergic action from that of death to the preservation of life. 相似文献

The effects of 2'- and 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)-ATP (BzATP) on intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and cyclic AMP accumulation were investigated using rat brain capillary endothelial cells which express an endogenous P2Y1 receptor, human platelets which are known to express a P2Y1 receptor, and Jurkat cells stably transfected with the human P2Y1 receptor. In endothelial cells, BzATP was a competitive inhibitor of 2-methylthio ADP (2-MeSADP) and ADP induced [Ca2+]i responses (Ki = 4.7 microM) and reversed the inhibition by ADP of adenylyl cyclase (Ki = 13 microM). In human platelets, BzATP inhibited ADP-induced aggregation (Ki = 5 microM), mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ stores (Ki = 6.3 microM), and inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. In P2Y1-Jurkat cells, BzATP inhibited ADP and 2-MeSADP-induced [Ca2+]i responses (Ki = 2.5 microM). It was concluded that BzATP is an antagonist of rat and human P2Y1 receptors and of platelet aggregation. In contrast to other P2Y1 receptor antagonists (A2P5P and A3P5P) which inhibit only ADP-induced Ca2+ mobilization, BzATP inhibits both the Ca2+- and the cAMP-dependent intracellular signaling pathways of ADP. These results provide further evidence that P2Y1 receptors contribute to platelet ADP responses. 相似文献

P2X receptors function as ATP-gated cation channels. The P2X(7) receptor subtype is distinguished from other P2X family members by a very low affinity for extracellular ATP (millimolar EC50) and its ability to trigger induction of nonselective pores on repeated or prolonged stimulation. Previous studies have indicated that certain P2X(7) receptor-positive cell types, such as human blood monocytes and murine thymocytes, lack this pore-forming response. In the present study we compared pore formation in response to P2X(7) receptor activation in human blood monocytes with that in macrophages derived from these monocytes by in vitro tissue culture. ATP induced nonselective pores in macrophages but not in freshly isolated monocytes when both cell types were identically stimulated in standard NaCl-based salines. However, ion substitution studies revealed that replacement of extracellular Na+ and Cl- with K+ and nonhalide anions strongly facilitated ATP-dependent pore formation in monocytes. These ionic conditions also resulted in increased agonist affinity, such that 30-100 microM ATP was sufficient for activation of nonselective pores by P2X(7) receptors. Comparison of P2X(7) receptor expression in blood monocytes with that in macrophages indicated no differences in steady-state receptor mRNA levels but significant increases (up to 10-fold) in the amount of immunoreactive P2X(7) receptor protein at the cell surface of macrophages. Thus ability of ATP to activate nonselective pores in cells that natively express P2X(7) receptors can be modulated by receptor subunit density at the cell surface and ambient levels of extracellular Na+ and Cl-. These mechanisms may prevent adventitious P2X(7) receptor activation in monocytes until these proinflammatory leukocytes migrate to extravascular sites of tissue damage. 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

P2X7 mediates superoxide production in primary microglia and is up-regulated in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Primary rat microglia stimulated with either ATP or 2'- and 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)-ATP (BzATP) release copious amounts of superoxide (O(2)(-)*). ATP and BzATP stimulate O(2)(-)* production through purinergic receptors, primarily the P2X(7) receptor. O(2)(-)* is produced through the activation of the NADPH oxidase. Although both p42/44 MAPK and p38 MAPK were activated rapidly in cells stimulated with BzATP, only pharmacological inhibition of p38 MAPK attenuated O(2)(-)* production. Furthermore, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase attenuated O(2)(-)* production to a greater extent than an inhibitor of p38 MAPK. Both ATP and BzATP stimulated microglia-induced cortical cell death indicating this pathway may contribute to neurodegeneration. Consistent with this hypothesis, P2X(7) receptor was specifically up-regulated around beta-amyloid plaques in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (Tg2576). 相似文献

ATP has been reported to inhibit or stimulate lymphoid cell proliferation, depending on the origin of the cells. Agents that increase cAMP, such as PGE(2), inhibit human CD4(+) T cell activation. We demonstrate that several ATP derivatives increase cAMP in both freshly purified and activated human peripheral blood CD4(+) T cells. The rank order of potency of the various nucleotides was: adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATPgammaS) approximately 2'- and 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl) ATP (BzATP) > ATP > 2-methylthio-ATP > dATP, 2-propylthio-beta,gamma-dichloromethylene-D-ATP, UDP, UTP. This effect did not involve the activation of A(2)Rs by adenosine or the synthesis of prostaglandins. ATPgammaS had no effect on cytosolic calcium, whereas BzATP induced an influx of extracellular calcium. ATPgammaS and BzATP inhibited secretion of IL-2, IL-5, IL-10, and IFN-gamma; expression of CD25; and proliferation after activation of CD4(+) T cells by immobilized anti-CD3 and soluble anti-CD28 Abs, without increasing cell death. Taken together, our results suggest that extracellular adenine nucleotides inhibit CD4(+) T cell activation via an increase in cAMP mediated by an unidentified P2YR, which might thus constitute a new therapeutic target in immunosuppressive treatments. 相似文献
