P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y4, and P2Y6receptors are coupled to Rho and Rho kinase activation in vascular myocytes

Abstract: In the cardiovascular system, activation of ionotropic (P2X receptors) and metabotropic (P2Y receptors) P2 nucleotide receptors exerts potent and various responses including vasodilation, vasoconstriction, and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. Here we examined the involvement of the small GTPase RhoA in P2Y receptor-mediated effects in vascular myocytes. Stimulation of cultured aortic myocytes with P2Y receptor agonists induced an increase in the amount of membrane-bound RhoA and stimulated actin cyto… Show more

“…In keeping with these data, P2Y 2 has previously been shown to be coupled to Rho kinase activation in vascular myocytes and 1321N1 astrocy-toma cells (Sauzeau et al, 2000;Liao et al, 2007). The involvement of the endothelial Rho kinase in LPS-induced neutrophil migration in our model was confirmed with Y27632, a selective inhibitor of this enzyme.…”

“…5A, lower panel). The time-course of P2Y 1 -induced RhoA activation shared a close similarity to that of activation in vascular myocytes (28). The RhoA activation, however, was more robust when it was activated by ATP rather than by 2-MeSADP.…”

“…23), which is in line with the activity-dependence of the reshaping of synaptic architecture at the nmjs (4). On the other hand, the application of P2Y 1 receptor agonists activated the membrane-bound RhoA and stimulated the actin cytoskeleton organization in cultured vascular myocytes (28). In the present study, we provide evidence that the activation of P2Y 1 receptors induced the formation of membrane-bound RhoA, which subsequently potentiated the agrin-induced AChR aggregation on post-synaptic muscle fibers.…”

“…Because UTP is known to activate small GTPases of the Rho family in different cell types (43)(44)(45)(46) and the EGFR activates Vav2, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for RhoA and Rac1 (47), we next assessed whether the activated P2Y 2 R signals toward the EGFR and Rho family GTPases as part of its molecular mechanism. Pull-down assays using the RhoA and Rac1 substrate GST-rhoketin and GST-PAK, respectively (38,48), showed a significant 2-fold activation of RhoA and Rac1 in HCA perfused ex vivo with 1 M UTP.…”
