The inflammatory effects of UDP-glucose in N9 microglia are not mediated by P2Y14 receptor activation

Abstract: In this study we evaluated the functionality and inflammatory effects of P2Y14 receptors in murine N9 microglia. The selective P2Y14 receptor agonist UDPglucose (UDPG) derived from microbial sources dose dependently stimulated expression of cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase, and potentiated the effects of bacterial lipopolysaccharide on nitric oxide production. However, another selective P2Y14 receptor agonist, UDP-galactose, did not affect these endpoints either alone or in combination with… Show more

“…In murine N9 microglia cells the pro-inflammatory effect of UDPG was insensitive to PTX [24]. UDPG was able to inhibit cyclic AMP production in human astrocytoma U373 MG cells and with sensitivity to PTX, however, the P2Y 14 receptor was not detected in these cells [17].…”

“…Uridine 5′-diphosphate (UDP) also has been reported to be a partial agonist/competitive antagonist at the human P2Y 14 receptor and a potent agonist at the rat P2Y 14 receptor 15. Identification of the physiological functions of the P2Y 14 receptor has been difficult to establish,16,17 in part due to a lack of selective high affinity agonists and antagonists for this receptor. The P2Y 14 receptor plays a role in the neuroimmune system, with expression occurring in T cells, dendritic cells, hematopoietic stem cells, and other tissues.…”

“…13 However, a 2-thiouracil modification in 2 (MRS2690) increased potency by 7-fold, and the corresponding 4-thio analogue 3 was equipotent to 1 . Molecular modeling of the human P2Y 14 receptor based on a rhodopsin template and ligand docking have aided in visualizing putative molecular interactions within the binding site 13,16,18. Agonist ligand docking correctly predicted potent agonism of UDP-fructose, UDP-mannose, and UDP-inositol.…”

“…It was previously suggested that P2Y 14 -mediated calcium signalling is related to P2Y 14 glycosylation since in glioma C6 cells only N-glycosylated P2Y 14 was able to induce [Ca 2+ ] i elevations [63]. Moreover, it was shown that synthetic and microbial UDPG preparations induced different responses in N9 microglial cells: 15 µM synthetic UDPG inhibited phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB), thereby indicating reduced cAMP levels, while 15 µM microbial UDPG had no effect [69]. This raises the concern that microbial UDPG preparations, which are used in most P2Y 14 studies (including this study), contain contaminants that may mediate P2Y 14 -independent or mask P2Y 14 -dependent outcomes.…”
