Abstract:
:In the present study, the P2Y receptor(s) mediating the effects of the pyrimidines UTP and UDP on phospholipase C activation in the mouse neuroblastoma x rat glioma hybrid cell line NG108-15 was investigated. Reverse Transcriptase-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) analysis detected transcripts for the P2Y(6) and P2Y(2) receptors, but not for P2Y(1) and P2Y(4.) UTP and UDP were equipotent agonists and their effects were partially additive. Suramin, reactive blue 2 and pyridoxal phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'disulfonic acid (PPADS) antagonised the phospholipase C response to both UTP and UDP. High micromolar concentrations of adenosine, 2-p-(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino-5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (CGS-21680), 2',3'-O-isopropylideneadenosine (iPAdo) and adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (3',5'-cAMP) were able to antagonise the effect of UTP on phospholipase C but not that of UDP. The additivity of the UTP and UDP responses, novel P2 receptor antagonist profile and the distinguishing action of adenosine may indicate the expression of a pyrimidine selective P2Y receptor in addition to the P2Y(6) type in these cells.
