Differentiation by pyridoxal 5‐phosphate, PPADS and IsoPPADS between responses mediated by UTP and those evoked by α,β‐methylene‐ATP on rat sympathetic ganglia

Abstract: 1 The effect of pyridoxal 5-phosphate, and the 2',4' and 2',5'-disulphonic acid isomers of 6-azophenylpyridoxal 5-phosphate (PPADS and IsoPPADS respectively) on depolarization of the rat superior cervical ganglion evoked by a,-methylene-adenosine 5'-triphosphate (a,-Me-ATP) and uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) were determined by a grease-gap recording technique.2 Pyridoxal 5-phosphate (10-100 tM) and PPADS (10-100 M) enhanced UTP-and depressed a,-

“…Trezise et al, 1994;Connolly et al, 1995). In the present paper we show that PPADS is an effective antagonist, within this concentration-range, of the action of ATP on the P2Y-purinoceptor of BAE cells, while remaining totally ineffective at the BAE cell P2u-purinoceptor.…”

“…Antagonists such as suramin, pyridoxal-5-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2Ј,4Ј-disulfonic acid, reactive blue 2, and their analogs have traditionally been used as P2X receptor antagonists (Connolly, 1995;Bultmann et al, 1996). However, these compounds are relatively nonselective and exhibit high nanomolar-to-high micromolar affinities for P2X receptors (Bianchi et al, 1999).…”
