P2X4, P2Y1 and P2Y2 receptors on rat alveolar macrophages

Abstract: 1 ATP receptors present on rat alveolar macrophages (NR8383 cells) were identified by recordings of membrane current, measurements of intracellular calcium, RT -PCR and immunocytochemistry. 2 In whole-cell recordings with a sodium-based internal solution, ATP evoked an inward current at À60 mV. This reversed at 0 mV. The EC 50 for ATP was 18 mM in normal external solution (calcium 2 mM, magnesium 1 mM). The currents evoked by 2 0 ,3-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl-ATP were about five-fold smaller than those observed with… Show more

“…Firstly, we found that A740003 (1 mM) did not alter the currents evoked by 100 mM ATP in human alveolar macrophages (data not shown), thus confirming that this concentration of ATP was below threshold for activating P2X 7 R in these cells [21]. We have previously found that NR8383 macrophages do not express P2X 7 R under resting or LPS-stimulated conditions [22,23], thus making them a particularly attractive macrophage type in which to study P2X 4 R responses in isolation from P2X 7 R. Ivermectin (3 mM) increased mean current to 100 mM ATP by 5.3-fold in NR8383 cells (n 5 10), by 3-fold in human alveolar macrophages (n 5 10) and by 5.5-fold in mouse peritoneal macrophages (n 5 7) (Fig. 1B and C).…”

“…However, only P2Y 1 , P2Y 2 , P2Y 4 , P2X4, and P2X7 receptors were demonstrated to be functionally implicated in evoking ATP-mediated increases of cytosolic calcium levels [75][76][77]. In humans, alveolar macrophages were reported to express all P2 receptor subtypes except P2Y 12 , P2X2, P2X3, and P2X6 [78], whereas only, P2Y 1 , P2Y 2 , P2Y 11 , and P2X7 exhibit functional responses in inducing an intracellular calcium elevation.…”

“…Progress has also been made in understanding the cell biology of P2X4 receptors, with evidence to suggest that they undergo endocytosis and traffic to lysosomes Royle et al, 2002;Toulmé et al, 2006;Qureshi et al, 2007;Stokes and Surprenant, 2009). Early studies showed that P2X4 receptors were widely expressed in the brain (Lê et al, 1998b;Rubio and Soto, 2001), whereas more recent studies show that they are also expressed in microglia and alveolar macrophages (Bowler et al, 2003;Tsuda et al, 2003;Raouf et al, 2007;Ulmann et al, 2008;Stokes and Surprenant, 2009).…”
