Elucidating the molecular basis of ATP-induced cell death in breast cancer: Construction of a robust prognostic model. World J Clin Oncol 2024; 15:208-242. [PMID: 38455130 PMCID: PMC10915939 DOI: 10.5306/wjco.v15.i2.208] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer is a multifaceted and formidable disease with profound public health implications. Cell demise mechanisms play a pivotal role in breast cancer pathogenesis, with ATP-triggered cell death attracting mounting interest for its unique specificity and potential therapeutic pertinence. AIM To investigate the impact of ATP-induced cell death (AICD) on breast cancer, enhancing our understanding of its mechanism. METHODS The foundational genes orchestrating AICD mechanisms were extracted from the literature, underpinning the establishment of a prognostic model. Simultaneously, a microRNA (miRNA) prognostic model was constructed that mirrored the gene-based prognostic model. Distinctions between high- and low-risk cohorts within mRNA and miRNA characteristic models were scrutinized, with the aim of delineating common influence mechanisms, substantiated through enrichment analysis and immune infiltration assessment. RESULTS The mRNA prognostic model in this study encompassed four specific mRNAs: P2X purinoceptor 4, pannexin 1, caspase 7, and cyclin 2. The miRNA prognostic model integrated four pivotal miRNAs: hsa-miR-615-3p, hsa-miR-519b-3p, hsa-miR-342-3p, and hsa-miR-324-3p. B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, endothelial cells, and macrophages exhibited inverse correlations with risk scores across all breast cancer subtypes. Furthermore, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis revealed that genes differentially expressed in response to mRNA risk scores significantly enriched 25 signaling pathways, while miRNA risk scores significantly enriched 29 signaling pathways, with 16 pathways being jointly enriched. CONCLUSION Of paramount significance, distinct mRNA and miRNA signature models were devised tailored to AICD, both potentially autonomous prognostic factors. This study's elucidation of the molecular underpinnings of AICD in breast cancer enhances the arsenal of potential therapeutic tools, offering an unparalleled window for innovative interventions. Essentially, this paper reveals the hitherto enigmatic link between AICD and breast cancer, potentially leading to revolutionary progress in personalized oncology.

Ma Y, Han C, Xie C, Dang Q, Yang L, Li Y, Zhang M, Cheng J, Yang Y, Xu Q, Li P. ATP promotes resident CD34 + cell migration mainly through P2Y2-Stim1-ERK/p38 pathway. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 2023; 325:C1228-C1243. [PMID: 37721000 DOI: 10.1152/ajpcell.00048.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/19/2023]
Abstract
Extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is one of the most abundant biochemical constitutes within the stem cell microenvironment and is postulated to play critical roles in cell migration. However, it is unclear whether ATP regulates the cell migration of CD34+ vascular wall-resident stem/progenitor cells (VW-SCs) and participates in angiogenesis. Therefore, the biological mechanisms of cell migration mediated by ATP was determined by in vivo subcutaneous matrigel plug assay, ex vivo aortic ring assay, in vitro transwell migration assay, and other molecular methods. In the present study, ATP dose-dependently promoted CD34+ VW-SCs migration, which was more obviously attenuated by inhibiting or knocking down P2Y2 than P2Y6. Furthermore, it was confirmed that ATP potently promoted the migration of resident CD34+ cells from cultured aortic artery rings and differentiation into endothelial cells in matrigel plugs by using inducible lineage tracing Cd34-CreERT2; R26-tdTomato mice, whereas P2Y2 and P2Y6 blocker greatly inhibited the effect of ATP. In addition, ATP enhanced the protein expression of stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) on cell membrane, blocking the calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channel with shSTIM1 or BTP2 apparently inhibited ATP-evoked intracellular Ca2+ elevation and channel opening, thereby suppressing ATP-driven cell migration. Moreover, extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) inhibitor PD98059 and p38 inhibitor SB203580 remarkably inhibited ERK and p38 phosphorylation, cytoskeleton rearrangement, and subsequent cell migration. Unexpectedly, it was found that knocking down STIM1 greatly inhibited ATP-triggered ERK/p38 activation. Taken together, it was suggested that P2Y2 signaled through the CRAC channel mediated Ca2+ influx and ERK/p38 pathway to reorganize the cytoskeleton and promoted the migration of CD34+ VW-SCs.NEW & NOTEWORTHY In this study, we observed that the purinergic receptor P2Y2 is critical in the regulation of vascular wall-resident CD34+ cells' migration. ATP could activate STIM1-mediated extracellular Ca2+ entry by triggering STIM1 translocation to the plasma membrane, and knockdown of STIM1 prevented ERK/p38 activation-mediated cytoskeleton rearrangement and cell migration.

Abstract
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a genetic disorder that may lead patients to sudden cell death through the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias. ACM is characterised by the progressive substitution of cardiomyocytes with fibrofatty scar tissue that predisposes the heart to life-threatening arrhythmic events. Cardiac mesenchymal stromal cells (C-MSCs) contribute to the ACM by differentiating into fibroblasts and adipocytes, thereby supporting aberrant remodelling of the cardiac structure. Flecainide is an Ic antiarrhythmic drug that can be administered in combination with β-adrenergic blockers to treat ACM due to its ability to target both Nav1.5 and type 2 ryanodine receptors (RyR2). However, a recent study showed that flecainide may also prevent fibro-adipogenic differentiation by inhibiting store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) and thereby suppressing spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations in C-MSCs isolated from human ACM patients (ACM C-hMSCs). Herein, we briefly survey ACM pathogenesis and therapies and then recapitulate the main molecular mechanisms targeted by flecainide to mitigate arrhythmic events, including Nav1.5 and RyR2. Subsequently, we describe the role of spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations in determining MSC fate. Next, we discuss recent work showing that spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations in ACM C-hMSCs are accelerated to stimulate their fibro-adipogenic differentiation. Finally, we describe the evidence that flecainide suppresses spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations and fibro-adipogenic differentiation in ACM C-hMSCs by inhibiting constitutive SOCE.

Abstract
AIMS Vascular resident stem cells expressing stem cell antigen-1 (Sca-1+ cells) promote vascular regeneration and remodelling following injury through migration, proliferation and differentiation. The aim of this study was to examine the contributions of ATP signalling through purinergic receptor type 2 (P2R) isoforms in promoting Sca-1+ cell migration and proliferation after vascular injury and to elucidate the main downstream signalling pathways. METHODS AND RESULTS ATP-evoked changes in isolated Sca-1+ cell migration were examined by transwell assays, proliferation by viable cell counting assays and intracellular Ca2+ signalling by fluorometry, while receptor subtype contributions and downstream signals were examined by pharmacological or genetic inhibition, immunofluorescence, Western blotting and quantitative RT-PCR. These mechanisms were further examined in mice harbouring TdTomato-labelled Sca-1+ cells with and without Sca-1+-targeted P2R knockout following femoral artery guidewire injury. Stimulation with ATP promoted cultured Sca-1+ cell migration, induced intracellular free calcium elevations primarily via P2Y2R stimulation and accelerated proliferation mainly via P2Y6R stimulation. Enhanced migration was inhibited by the ERK blocker PD98059 or P2Y2R-shRNA, while enhanced proliferation was inhibited by the P38 inhibitor SB203580. Femoral artery guidewire injury of the neointima increased the number of TdTomato-labelled Sca-1+ cells, neointimal area and the ratio of neointimal area to media area at 3 weeks post-injury, and all of these responses were reduced by P2Y2R knockdown. CONCLUSIONS ATP induces Sca-1+ cell migration through the P2Y2R-Ca2+-ERK signalling pathway, and enhances proliferation through the P2Y6R-P38-MAPK signalling pathway. Both pathways are essential for vascular remodelling following injury. Video Abstract.

Neural stem cell self-renewal stimulation by store-operated calcium entries in adult mouse area postrema: influence of leptin. Front Cell Neurosci 2023; 17:1200360.

Abstract
Neural stem cells (NSCs) persist in specific brain germinative niches and sustain neurogenesis throughout life in adult mammals. In addition to the two major stem cell niches in the subventricular zone and the hippocampal dentate gyrus, the area postrema located in the brainstem has been identified as a neurogenic zone as well. NSCs are regulated by signals from the microenvironment that adjust stem cell response to the needs of the organism. Evidence accumulated over the past decade indicates that Ca2+ channels play pivotal functions in NSC maintenance. In this study, we explored in area postrema NSCs the presence and roles of a subset of Ca2+ channels, the store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCs) that have the capacity to transduce extracellular signals into Ca2+ signals. Our data show that NSCs derived from the area postrema express TRPC1 and Orai1, known to form SOCs, as well as their activator STIM1. Ca2+ imaging indicated that NSCs exhibit store-operated Ca2+ entries (SOCEs). Pharmacological blockade of SOCEs with SKF-96365, YM-58483 (also known as BTP2) or GSK-7975A resulted in decreased NSC proliferation and self-renewal, indicating a major role for SOCs in maintaining NSC activity within the area postrema. Furthermore, our results show that leptin, an adipose tissue-derived hormone whose ability to control energy homeostasis is dependent on the area postrema, decreased SOCEs and reduced self-renewal of NSCs in the area postrema. As aberrant SOC function has been linked to an increasing number of diseases, including brain disorders, our study opens new perspectives for NSCs in brain pathophysiology.

Abstract
Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) are adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) obtained from dental pulp and derived from the neural crest. They can differentiate into odontoblasts, osteoblasts, chondrocytes, adipocytes and nerve cells, and they play a role in tissue repair and regeneration. In fact, DPSCs, depending on the microenvironmental signals, can differentiate into odontoblasts and regenerate dentin or, when transplanted, replace/repair damaged neurons. Cell homing depends on recruitment and migration, and it is more effective and safer than cell transplantation. However, the main limitations of cell homing are the poor cell migration of MSCs and the limited information we have on the regulatory mechanism of the direct differentiation of MSCs. Different isolation methods used to recover DPSCs can yield different cell types. To date, most studies on DPSCs use the enzymatic isolation method, which prevents direct observation of cell migration. Instead, the explant method allows for the observation of single cells that can migrate at two different times and, therefore, could have different fates, for example, differentiation and self-renewal. DPSCs use mesenchymal and amoeboid migration modes with the formation of lamellipodia, filopodia and blebs, depending on the biochemical and biophysical signals of the microenvironment. Here, we present current knowledge on the possible intriguing role of cell migration, with particular attention to microenvironmental cues and mechanosensing properties, in the fate of DPSCs.

Abstract
Piezo ion channel is a mechanosensitive protein on the cell membrane, which contains Piezo1 and Piezo2. Piezo channels are activated by mechanical forces, including stretch, matrix stiffness, static pressure, and shear stress. Piezo channels transmit mechanical signals that cause different downstream responses in the differentiation process, including integrin signaling pathway, ERK1/2 MAPK signaling pathway, Notch signaling, and WNT signaling pathway. In the fate of stem cell differentiation, scientists found differences in Piezo channel expression and found that Piezo channel expression is related to developmental diseases. Here, we briefly review the structure and function of Piezo channels and the relationship between Piezo and mechanical signals, discussing the current understanding of the role of Piezo channels in stem cell fate and associated molecules and developmental diseases. Ultimately, we believe this review will help identify the association between Piezo channels and stem cell fate.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiac mesenchymal stromal cells (C-MSC) were recently shown to differentiate into adipocytes and myofibroblasts to promote the aberrant remodeling of cardiac tissue that characterizes arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM). A calcium (Ca2+) signaling dysfunction, mainly demonstrated in mouse models, is recognized as a mechanism impacting arrhythmic risk in ACM cardiomyocytes. Whether similar mechanisms influence ACM C-MSC fate is still unknown.
Thus, we aim to ascertain whether intracellular Ca2+ oscillations and the Ca2+ toolkit are altered in human C-MSC obtained from ACM patients, and to assess their link with C-MSC-specific ACM phenotypes.
Methods and results
ACM C-MSC show enhanced spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations and concomitant increased Ca2+/Calmodulin dependent kinase II (CaMKII) activation compared to control cells. This is manly linked to a constitutive activation of Store-Operated Ca2+ Entry (SOCE), which leads to enhanced Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum through inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors. By targeting the Ca2+ handling machinery or CaMKII activity, we demonstrated a causative link between Ca2+ oscillations and fibro-adipogenic differentiation of ACM C-MSC. Genetic silencing of the desmosomal gene PKP2 mimics the remodelling of the Ca2+ signalling machinery occurring in ACM C-MSC. The anti-arrhythmic drug flecainide inhibits intracellular Ca2+ oscillations and fibro-adipogenic differentiation by selectively targeting SOCE.
Conclusions
Altogether, our results extend the knowledge of Ca2+ dysregulation in ACM to the stromal compartment, as an etiologic mechanism of C-MSC-related ACM phenotypes. A new mode of action of flecainide on a novel mechanistic target is unveiled against the fibro-adipose accumulation in ACM.

[PMID: 35887132 PMCID: PMC9318746 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23147790] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2022] [Revised: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/13/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The role of the purinergic signal has been extensively investigated in many tissues and related organs, including the central and peripheral nervous systems as well as the gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, and immune systems. Less attention has been paid to the influence of purines in the oral cavity, which is the first part of the digestive apparatus and also acts as the body’s first antimicrobial barrier. In this review, evidence is provided of the presence and possible physiological role of the purinergic system in the different structures forming the oral cavity including teeth, tongue, hard palate, and soft palate with their annexes such as taste buds, salivary glands, and nervous fibers innervating the oral structures. We also report findings on the involvement of the purinergic signal in pathological conditions affecting the oral apparatus such as Sjögren’s syndrome or following irradiation for the treatment of head and neck cancer, and the use of experimental drugs interfering with the purine system to improve bone healing after damage. Further investigations are required to translate the results obtained so far into the clinical setting in order to pave the way for a wider application of purine-based treatments in oral diseases.

Store-Operated Ca 2+ Entry Contributes to Piezo1-Induced Ca 2+ Increase in Human Endometrial Stem Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23073763. [PMID: 35409116 PMCID: PMC8998223 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23073763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (eMSCs) are a specific class of stromal cells which have the capability to migrate, develop and differentiate into different types of cells such as adipocytes, osteocytes or chondrocytes. It is this unique plasticity that makes the eMSCs significant for cellular therapy and regenerative medicine. Stem cells choose their way of development by analyzing the extracellular and intracellular signals generated by a mechanical force from the microenvironment. Mechanosensitive channels are part of the cellular toolkit that feels the mechanical environment and can transduce mechanical stimuli to intracellular signaling pathways. Here, we identify previously recorded, mechanosensitive (MS), stretch-activated channels as Piezo1 proteins in the plasma membrane of eMSCs. Piezo1 activity triggered by the channel agonist Yoda1 elicits influx of Ca2+, a known modulator of cytoskeleton reorganization and cell motility. We found that store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) formed by Ca2+-selective channel ORAI1 and Ca2+ sensors STIM1/STIM2 contributes to Piezo1-induced Ca2+ influx in eMSCs. Particularly, the Yoda1-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) is partially abolished by 2-APB, a well-known inhibitor of SOCE. Flow cytometry analysis and wound healing assay showed that long-term activation of Piezo1 or SOCE does not have a cytotoxic effect on eMSCs but suppresses their migratory capacity and the rate of cell proliferation. We propose that the Piezo1 and SOCE are both important determinants in [Ca2+]i regulation, which critically affects the migratory activity of eMSCs and, therefore, could influence the regenerative potential of these cells.

Nicotinic Acid Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Induces Intracellular Ca2+ Signalling and Stimulates Proliferation in Human Cardiac Mesenchymal Stromal Cells. Front Cell Dev Biol 2022; 10:874043.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is a newly discovered second messenger that gates two pore channels 1 (TPC1) and 2 (TPC2) to elicit endo-lysosomal (EL) Ca2+ release. NAADP-induced lysosomal Ca2+ release may be amplified by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through the Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) mechanism. NAADP-induced intracellular Ca2+ signals were shown to modulate a growing number of functions in the cardiovascular system, but their occurrence and role in cardiac mesenchymal stromal cells (C-MSCs) is still unknown. Herein, we found that exogenous delivery of NAADP-AM induced a robust Ca2+ signal that was abolished by disrupting the lysosomal Ca2+ store with Gly-Phe β-naphthylamide, nigericin, and bafilomycin A1, and blocking TPC1 and TPC2, that are both expressed at protein level in C-MSCs. Furthermore, NAADP-induced EL Ca2+ release resulted in the Ca2+-dependent recruitment of ER-embedded InsP3Rs and SOCE activation. Transmission electron microscopy revealed clearly visible membrane contact sites between lysosome and ER membranes, which are predicted to provide the sub-cellular framework for lysosomal Ca2+ to recruit ER-embedded InsP3Rs through CICR. NAADP-induced EL Ca2+ mobilization via EL TPC was found to trigger the intracellular Ca2+ signals whereby Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) induces C-MSC proliferation. Furthermore, NAADP-evoked Ca2+ release was required to mediate FBS-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), but not Akt, phosphorylation in C-MSCs. These finding support the notion that NAADP-induced TPC activation could be targeted to boost proliferation in C-MSCs and pave the way for future studies assessing whether aberrant NAADP signaling in C-MSCs could be involved in cardiac disorders.

Abstract
Stem cell therapy may be a promising option for the treatment of vascular diseases. In recent years, significant progress has been made in stem cell research, especially in the mechanism of stem cell activation, homing and differentiation in vascular repair and reconstruction. Current research on stem cells focuses on protein expression and transcriptional networks. Ion channels are considered to be the basis for the generation of bioelectrical signals, which control the proliferation, differentiation and migration of various cell types. Although heterogeneity of multiple ion channels has been found in different types of stem cells, it is unclear whether the heterogeneous expression of ion channels is related to different cell subpopulations and/or different stages of the cell cycle. There is still a long way to go in clinical treatment by using the regulation of stem cell ion channels. In this review, we reviewed the main ion channels found on stem cells, their expression and function in stem cell proliferation, differentiation and migration, and the research status of stem cells' involvement in vascular diseases.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are promising candidates for cell-based therapies, mainly due to their unique biological properties such as multipotency, self-renewal and trophic/immunomodulatory effects. However, clinical use has proven complex due to limitations such as high variability of MSCs preparations and high number of cells required for therapies. These challenges could be circumvented with cell immortalization through genetic manipulation, and although many studies show that such approaches are safe, little is known about changes in other biological properties and functions of MSCs. In this study, we evaluated the impact of MSCs immortalization with the TERT gene on the purinergic system, which has emerged as a key modulator in a wide variety of pathophysiological conditions. After cell immortalization, MSCs-TERT displayed similar immunophenotypic profile and differentiation potential to primary MSCs. However, analysis of gene and protein expression exposed important alterations in the purinergic signaling of in vitro cultured MSCs-TERT. Immortalized cells upregulated the CD39/NTPDase1 enzyme and downregulated CD73/NT5E and adenosine deaminase (ADA), which had a direct impact on their nucleotide/nucleoside metabolism profile. Despite these alterations, adenosine did not accumulate in the extracellular space, due to increased uptake. MSCs-TERT cells presented an impaired in vitro immunosuppressive potential, as observed in an assay of co-culture with lymphocytes. Therefore, our data suggest that MSCs-TERT have altered expression of key enzymes of the extracellular nucleotides/nucleoside control, which altered key characteristics of these cells and can potentially change their therapeutic effects in tissue engineering in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular mechanism by which antidiuretic hormone (ADH) inhibited osteogenesis in dental follicle stem cells. DESIGN Rat dental follicle stem cells were cultured in osteogenic differentiation medium supplemented with ADH. Alkaline phosphatase enzyme activity, Alizarin Red S staining, MTT assay and RT-qPCR was used to examine ADH's impact on cell mineralization, viability, and osteogenic gene expression. Real-time calcium imaging analysis was performed to identify the ADH receptor and its mechanism of action. RESULTS ADH supplementation to the osteogenic differentiation medium inhibited cell mineralization without compromising cell viability and downregulated the expression of key osteogenic genes: DCN (Decorin), RUNX2 (Runt-related transcription factor 2) and BSP (Bone sialoprotein). Real-time calcium imaging analysis revealed that ADH (1-1000 nM) increased intracellular calcium in a concentration-dependent manner. Pretreatment of cells with V2255, a V1a receptor blocker, inhibited the calcium signals, but not with the V1b (Nelivaptan) or V2 (Tolvaptan). V2255 also reversed the inhibitory effect of ADH on osteogenesis. Furthermore, U73122, a Phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor, 2-APB, an Inositol Triphosphate (IP3) receptor blocker, and depletion of endoplasmic reticulum calcium stores abolished the calcium signals by ADH. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrated that ADH activates V1a receptors and the PLC-IP3 pathway to stimulate intracellular calcium signals, which inhibits cell mineralization and osteogenic gene expression. These findings uncovered a novel function for ADH as a negative regulator of osteogenesis in dental follicle stem cells. The role of ADH in the pathogenesis of bone diseases remains to be determined.

Abstract
As a newly discovered mechanosensitive ion channel protein, the piezo1 protein participates in the transmission of mechanical signals on the cell membrane and plays a vital role in mammalian biomechanics. Piezo1 has attracted widespread attention since it was discovered in 2010. In recent years, studies on piezo1 have gradually increased and deepened. In addition to the discovery that piezo1 is expressed in the respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and urinary systems, it is also stably expressed in cells such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), osteoblasts, osteoclasts, chondrocytes, and nucleus pulposus cells that constitute vertebral bodies and intervertebral discs. They can all receive external mechanical stimulation through the piezo1 protein channel to affect cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and apoptosis to promote the occurrence and development of lumbar degenerative diseases. Through reviewing the relevant literature of piezo1 in the abovementioned cells, this paper discusses the effect of piezo1 protein expression under mechanical stress stimuli on spinal degenerative disease, providing the molecular basis for the pathological mechanism of spinal degenerative disease and also a new basis, ideas, and methods for the prevention and treatment of this degenerative disease.

Abstract
Tooth and bone are independent tissues with a close relationship. Both are composed of a highly calcified outer structure and soft inner tissue, and both are constantly under mechanical stress. In particular, the alveolar bone and tooth constitute an occlusion system and suffer from masticatory and occlusal force. Thus, mechanotransduction is a key process in many developmental, physiological and pathological processes in tooth and bone. Mechanosensitive ion channels such as Piezo1 and Piezo2 are important participants in mechanotransduction, but their functions in tooth and bone are poorly understood. This review summarizes our current understanding of mechanosensitive ion channels and their roles in tooth and bone tissues. Research in these areas may shed new light on the regulation of tooth and bone tissues and potential treatments for diseases affecting these tissues.

Abstract
Transplantation of undifferentiated dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) may suffer from tumorigenesis. Neuronal differentiated DPSCs (d-DPSCs) have emerged as an ideal source to treat central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Moreover, different components of culture medium functioned on the characteristics of d-DPSCs in vitro. In this study, d-DPSCs were cultured in three types of medium: Neurobasal®®-A medium supplemented with 2% B27 (the 2% B27 NM group), Neurobasal® -A medium supplemented with 2% B27 and 5% FBS (the 2% B27 + 5% FBS NM group), and α-MEM containing 10% FBS (the 10% FBS α-MEM group). We found that d-DPSCs in the 2% B27 + 5% FBS NM group had lower proliferation and reduced expression of transient receptor potential canonical 1 (TRPC1) and CD146, whereas up-regulated Nestin and microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP-2). Notably, d-DPSCs in the 10% FBS α-MEM group possessed high proliferative capacity, decreased expression of neuron-like markers and partially restored stemness. It was demonstrated that d-DPSCs cultured in the 2% B27 + 5% FBS NM could maintain their neuron-like characteristics. Besides, d-DPSCs cultivated in the 10% FBS α-MEM could partially recover their stem cells properties, indicating that neural differentiation of DPSCs was reversible and could open novel avenues for exploring the pluripotency of DPSCs.

Carluccio M, Ziberi S, Zuccarini M, Giuliani P, Caciagli F, Di Iorio P, Ciccarelli R. Adult mesenchymal stem cells: is there a role for purine receptors in their osteogenic differentiation? Purinergic Signal 2020; 16:263-287. [PMID: 32500422 DOI: 10.1007/s11302-020-09703-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2019] [Accepted: 05/04/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The role played by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in contributing to adult tissue homeostasis and damage repair thanks to their differentiation capabilities has raised a great interest, mainly in bone regenerative medicine. The growth/function of these undifferentiated cells of mesodermal origin, located in specialized structures (niches) of differentiated organs is influenced by substances present in this microenvironment. Among them, ancestral and ubiquitous molecules such as adenine-based purines, i.e., ATP and adenosine, may be included. Notably, extracellular purine concentrations greatly increase during tissue injury; thus, MSCs are exposed to effects mediated by these agents interacting with their own receptors when they act/migrate in vivo or are transplanted into a damaged tissue. Here, we reported that ATP modulates MSC osteogenic differentiation via different P2Y and P2X receptors, but data are often inconclusive/contradictory so that the ATP receptor importance for MSC physiology/differentiation into osteoblasts is yet undetermined. An exception is represented by P2X7 receptors, whose expression was shown at various differentiation stages of bone cells resulting essential for differentiation/survival of both osteoclasts and osteoblasts. As well, adenosine, usually derived from extracellular ATP metabolism, can promote osteogenesis, likely via A2B receptors, even though findings from human MSCs should be implemented and confirmed in preclinical models. Therefore, although many data have revealed possible effects caused by extracellular purines in bone healing/remodeling, further studies, hopefully performed in in vivo models, are necessary to identify defined roles for these compounds in favoring/increasing the pro-osteogenic properties of MSCs and thereby their usefulness in bone regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP through the activation of the P2X and P2Y purinergic receptors affects the migration, proliferation and differentiation of many types of cells, including stem cells. High plasticity, low immunogenicity and immunomodulation ability of mesenchymal stem cells derived from human endometrium (eMSCs) allow them to be considered a prominent tool for regenerative medicine. Here, we examined the role of ATP in the proliferation and migration of human eMSCs. Using a wound healing assay, we showed that ATP-induced activation of purinergic receptors suppressed the migration ability of eMSCs. We found the expression of one of the ATP receptors, the P2X7 receptor in eMSCs. In spite of this, cell activation with specific P2X7 receptor agonist, BzATP did not significantly affect the cell migration. The allosteric P2X7 receptor inhibitor, AZ10606120 also did not prevent ATP-induced inhibition of cell migration, confirming that inhibition occurs without P2X7 receptor involvement. Flow cytometry analysis showed that high concentrations of ATP did not have a cytotoxic effect on eMSCs. At the same time, ATP induced the cell cycle arrest, suppressed the proliferative and migration capacity of eMSCs and therefore could affect the regenerative potential of these cells.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation is the hallmark of cardiovascular pathologies with a major role in both disease progression and occurrence of long-term complications. The massive release of ATP during the inflammatory process activates various purinergic receptors, including P2Y11. This receptor is less studied but ubiquitously expressed in all cells relevant for cardiovascular pathology: cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial and immune cells. While several studies suggested a potential pro-inflammatory role for P2Y11 receptors, recent literature data are supportive of an anti-inflammatory profile characterized by the immunosuppression of dendritic cells, inhibition of fibroblast proliferation and of cytokines and ATP secretion. Moreover, modulation of its activity appears to mediate the positive inotropic effect of ATP and mitigate endothelial dysfunction, thus rendering this receptor a promising therapeutic target in the cardiovascular disease armamentarium. The aim of the present review is to summarize the current available knowledge on P2Y11-related purinergic signaling in the setting of inflammation and cardio-metabolic diseases.

Abstract
In this study, we examined the Ca2+‐permeable Piezo1 channel, a newly identified mechanosensing ion channel, in human dental pulp‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and hypothesized that activation of the Piezo1 channel regulates MSC migration via inducing ATP release and activation of the P2 receptor purinergic signaling. The Piezo1 mRNA and protein were readily detected in hDP‐MSCs from multiple donors and, consistently, brief exposure to Yoda1, the Piezo1 channel‐specific activator, elevated intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Yoda1‐induced Ca2+ response was inhibited by ruthenium red or GsMTx4, two Piezo1 channel inhibitors, and also by Piezo1‐specific siRNA. Brief exposure to Yoda1 also induced ATP release. Persistent exposure to Yoda1 stimulated MSC migration, which was suppressed by Piezo1‐specific siRNA, and also prevented by apyrase, an ATP scavenger, or PPADS, a P2 generic antagonist. Furthermore, stimulation of MSC migration induced by Yoda1 as well as ATP was suppressed by PF431396, a PYK2 kinase inhibitor, or U0126, an inhibitor of the mitogen‐activated protein kinase MEK/ERK signaling pathway. Collectively, these results suggest that activation of the Piezo1 channel stimulates MSC migration via inducing ATP release and subsequent activation of the P2 receptor purinergic signaling and downstream PYK2 and MEK/ERK signaling pathways, thus revealing novel insights into the molecular and signaling mechanisms regulating MSC migration. Such findings provide useful information for evolving a full understanding of MSC migration and homing and developing strategies to improve MSC‐based translational applications.

Abstract
Organs and tissues and their constituent cells are physiologically submitted to diverse types of mechanical forces or stress, one common sequence of which is release of intracellular ATP into extracellular space. Extracellular ATP is a well-established autocrine or paracrine signaling molecule that regulates multiple cell functions and mediates cell-to-cell communications via activating the purinergic P2 receptors, more specifically, ligand-gated ion channel P2X receptors and some of the G-protein-coupled P2Y receptors. The molecular mechanisms that sense mechanical and transduce forces to trigger ATP release are poorly understood. The Piezo1, a newly identified mechanosensing ion channel, shows widespread expression and confers mechanosensitivity in many different types of cells. In this mini-review, we briefly introduce the Piezo1 channel and discuss the evidence that supports its important role in the mechanoregulation of diverse cell functions and, more specifically, critical engagement of ATP release and subsequent P2 receptor activation in Piezo1 channel-dependent mechanoregulation. Such ATP release-mediated coupling of the Piezo1 channel and P2 receptors may serve a signaling mechanism that is more common than we currently understand in transducing mechanical information to regulation of the attendant cell functions in various organs and tissues.

Abstract
The P2X7 receptor [P2X7R or P2RX7 in National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) gene nomenclature] is a member of the P2X receptor (P2XR) subfamily of P2 receptors (P2Rs). The P2X7R is an extracellular ATP-gated ion channel with peculiar permeability properties expressed by most cell types, mainly in the immune system, where it has a leading role in cytokine release, oxygen radical generation, T lymphocyte differentiation and proliferation. A role in cancer cell growth and tumor progression has also been demonstrated. These features make the P2X7R an appealing target for drug development in inflammation and cancer. The functional P2X7R, recently (partially) crystallized and 3-D solved, is formed by the assembly of three identical subunits (homotrimer). The P2X7R is preferentially permeable to small cations (Ca2+, Na+, K+), and in most (but not all) cell types also to large positively charged molecules of molecular mass up to 900Da. Permeability to negatively charged species of comparable molecular mass (e.g., Lucifer yellow) is debated. Several highly selective P2X7R pharmacological blockers have been developed over the years, thus providing powerful tools for P2X7R studies. Biophysical properties and coupling to several different physiological responses make the P2X7R amenable to investigation by electrophysiology and cell biology techniques, which allow its identification and characterization in many different cell types and tissues. A careful description of the physiological features of the P2X7R is a prerequisite for an effective therapeutic development. Here we describe the most common techniques to asses P2X7R functions, including patch-clamp, intracellular calcium measurements, and membrane permeabilization to large fluorescent dyes in a selection of different cell types. In addition, we also describe common toxicity assays used to verify the effects of P2X7R stimulation on cell viability.

Abstract
Intracellular Ca2+ signals are essential for stem cell function and play a significant role in the differentiation process. Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are a potential source of stem cells; however, the mechanisms controlling cell differentiation remain largely unknown. Utilizing rat DPSCs, we examined the effect of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on osteoblast differentiation and characterized its mechanism of action using real-time Ca 2+ imaging analysis. Our results revealed that ATP enhanced osteogenesis as indicated by Ca 2+ deposition in the extracellular matrix via Alizarin Red S staining. This was consistent with upregulation of osteoblast genes BMP2, Mmp13, Col3a1, Ctsk, Flt1, and Bgn. Stimulation of DPSCs with ATP (1-300 µM) increased intracellular Ca 2+ signals in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas histamine, acetylcholine, arginine vasopressin, carbachol, and stromal-cell-derived factor-1α failed to do so. Depletion of intracellular Ca 2+ stores in the endoplasmic reticulum by thapsigargin abolished the ATP responses which, nevertheless, remained detectable under extracellular Ca 2+ free condition. Furthermore, the phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor U73122 and the inositol triphosphate (IP 3 ) receptor inhibitor 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate inhibited the Ca 2+ signals. Our findings provide a better understanding of how ATP controls osteogenesis in DPSCs, which involves a Ca 2+ -dependent mechanism via the PLC-IP 3 pathway. This knowledge could help improve osteogenic differentiation protocols for tissue regeneration of bone structures.

Abstract
Orai and Stim proteins are the mediators of calcium release-activated calcium signaling and are important in the regulation of bone homeostasis and disease. This includes separate regulatory systems controlling mesenchymal stem cell differentiation to form osteoblasts, which make bone, and differentiation and regulation of osteoclasts, which resorb bone. These systems will be described separately, and their integration and relation to other systems, including Orai and Stim in teeth, will be briefly discussed at the end of this review.

Abstract
Calcium is a ubiquitous intracellular messenger that has a crucial role in determining the proliferation, differentiation, and functions of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Our study is aimed at elucidating the influence of genetically manipulating Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel-mediated intercellular Ca2+ signaling on the multipotency of MSCs. The abilities of genetically engineered MSCs, including CRAC-overexpressing and CRAC-knockout MSCs, to differentiate into multiple mesenchymal lineages, including adipogenic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic lineages, were evaluated. CRAC channel-mediated Ca2+ influx into these cells was regulated, and the differentiation fate of MSCs was modified. Upregulation of intracellular Ca2+ signals attenuated the adipogenic differentiation ability and slightly increased the osteogenic differentiation potency of MSCs, whereas downregulation of CRACM1 expression promoted chondrogenic differentiation potency. The findings demonstrated the effects of genetically manipulating MSCs by targeting CRACM1. CRAC-modified MSCs had distinct differentiation fates to adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes. To aid in the clinical implementation of tissue engineering strategies for joint regeneration, these data may allow us to identify prospective factors for effective treatments and could maximize the therapeutic potential of MSC-based transplantation.

Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) reside in postnatal dental pulp and exhibit the potential to differentiate into odontoblasts as well as neurons. However, the intercellular signaling niches necessary for hDPSC survival and self-renewal remain largely unknown. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the existence of intercellular purinergic signaling in hDPSCs and to assess the impact of purinergic signaling on hDPSC survival and proliferation. hDPSCs were isolated from extracted third molars and cultured in minimum essential medium. To demonstrate responsiveness to ATP application and inhibitions by purinergic receptor antagonists, whole cell patch-clamp recordings of ATP-induced currents were recorded from cultured hDPSCs. Immunofluorescence and enzymatic histochemistry staining were performed to assess purinergic receptor expression and ectonucleotidase activity in hDPSCs, respectively. To determine the effects of purinergic signaling on hDPSC, purinergic receptor antagonists and an ectonucleotidase inhibitor were applied in culture medium, and hDPSC survival and proliferation were assessed with DAPI staining and Ki67 immunofluorescence staining, respectively. We demonstrated that ATP application induced inward currents in hDPSCs. P2X and P2Y receptors are involved in the generation of ATP-induced inward currents. We also detected expression of NTPDase3 and ectonucleotidase activity in hDPSCs. We further demonstrated that purinergic receptors were tonically activated in hDPSCs and that inhibition of ectonucleotidase activity enhanced ATP-induced inward currents. Furthermore, we found that blocking P2Y and P2X receptors reduced-and inhibition of ecto-ATPase activity enhanced-the survival and proliferation of hDPSCs, while blocking P2X receptors alone affected only hDPSC proliferation. Autocrine/paracrine purinergic signaling is essential for hDPSC survival and proliferation. These results reveal potential targets to manipulate hDPSCs to promote tooth/dental pulp repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Extracellular purines, principally adenosine triphosphate and adenosine, are among the oldest evolutionary and widespread chemical messengers. The integrative view of purinergic signaling as a multistage coordinated cascade involves the participation of nucleotides/nucleosides, their receptors, enzymes metabolizing extracellular nucleosides and nucleotides as well as several membrane transporters taking part in the release and/or uptake of these molecules. In view of the emerging data, it is evident and widely accepted that an extensive network of diverse enzymatic activities exists in the extracellular space. The enzymes regulate the availability of nucleotide and adenosine receptor agonists, and consequently, the course of signaling events. The current data indicate that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and cells induced to differentiate exhibit different sensitivity to purinergic ligands as well as a distinct activity and expression profiles of ectonucleotidases than mature cells. In the proposed review, we postulate for a critical role of these enzymatic players which, by orchestrating a fine-tune regulation of nucleotides concentrations, are integrally involved in modulation and diversification of purinergic signals. This specific hallmark of the MSC purinome should be linked with cell-specific biological potential and capacity for tissue regeneration. We anticipate this publication to be a starting point for scientific discussion and novel approach to the in vitro and in vivo regulation of the MSC properties.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP-induced Ca2+ signalling is critical in regulating diverse physiological and disease processes. Emerging evidence suggests high concentrations of extracellular ATP in tumour tissues. In this study, we examined the P2 receptor for ATP-induced Ca2+ signalling in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Fura-2-based measurements of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) showed that extracellular ATP induced an increase in the [Ca2+]i in human HCC Huh-7 and HepG2 cells. NF546, a P2Y11 receptor agonist was equally effective in inducing an increase in the [Ca2+]i. In contrast, agonists for the P2X receptors (αβmeATP and BzATP), P2Y1 receptor (MRS2365) or P2Y2 receptor (MRS2768) were ineffective. In addition, ATP/NF546-induced increases in the [Ca2+]i were strongly inhibited by treatment with NF340, a P2Y11 receptor antagonist. Immunofluorescent confocal imaging and western blotting analysis consistently demonstrated the P2Y11 receptor expression in Huh-7 and HepG2 cells. Transfection with P2Y11-specific siRNA attenuated the P2Y11 receptor protein expression level and also reduced NF546-induced increase in the [Ca2+]i. Importantly, immunohistochemistry revealed that the P2Y11 receptor was expressed at very high level in human HCC tissues and, by contrast, it was barely detected in normal liver tissues. Trans-well cell migration assay demonstrated that ATP and NF546 induced concentration-dependent stimulation of Huh-7 cell migration. Treatment with NF340 prevented ATP-induced stimulation of cell migration. Taken together, our results show carcinoma-specific expression of the P2Y11 receptor and its critical role in mediating ATP-inducing Ca2+ signalling and regulating cell migration in human HCC cells.

Abstract
The subventricular zone (SVZ) is the major stem cell niche in the brain of adult mammals. Within this region, neural stem cells (NSC) proliferate, self-renew and give birth to neurons and glial cells. Previous studies underlined enrichment in calcium signaling-related transcripts in adult NSC. Because of their ability to mobilize sustained calcium influxes in response to a wide range of extracellular factors, store-operated channels (SOC) appear to be, among calcium channels, relevant candidates to induce calcium signaling in NSC whose cellular activities are continuously adapted to physiological signals from the microenvironment. By Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting and immunocytochemistry experiments, we demonstrate that SVZ cells express molecular actors known to build up SOC, namely transient receptor potential canonical 1 (TRPC1) and Orai1, as well as their activator stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1). Calcium imaging reveals that SVZ cells display store-operated calcium entries. Pharmacological blockade of SOC with SKF-96365 or YM-58483 (also called BTP2) decreases proliferation, impairs self-renewal by shifting the type of SVZ stem cell division from symmetric proliferative to asymmetric, thereby reducing the stem cell population. Brain section immunostainings show that TRPC1, Orai1, and STIM1 are expressed in vivo, in SOX2-positive SVZ NSC. Injection of SKF-96365 in brain lateral ventricle diminishes SVZ cell proliferation and reduces the ability of SVZ cells to form neurospheres in vitro. The present study combining in vitro and in vivo approaches uncovers a major role for SOC in the control of SVZ NSC population and opens new fields of investigation for stem cell biology in health and disease. Stem Cells 2018;36:761-774.

Abstract
The regenerative effects of cardiac ckit+ stem cells (ckit+CSCs) in acute myocardial infarction (MI) have been studied extensively, but how these cells exert a protective effect on cardiomyocytes is not well known. Growing evidences suggest that in adult stem cells injury triggers inflammatory signaling pathways which control tissue repair and regeneration. Aim of the present study was to determine the mechanisms underlying the cardioprotective effects of ckit+CSCs following transplantation in a murine model of MI. Following isolation and in vitro expansion, cardiac ckit+CSCs were subjected to normoxic and hypoxic conditions and assessed at different time points. These cells adapted to hypoxia as showed by the activation of HIF-1α and the expression of a number of genes, such as VEGF, GLUT1, EPO, HKII and, importantly, of alarmin receptors, such as RAGE, P2X7R, TLR2 and TLR4. Activation of these receptors determined an NFkB-dependent inflammatory and reparative gene response (IRR). Importantly, hypoxic ckit+CSCs increased the secretion of the survival growth factors IGF-1 and HGF. To verify whether activation of the IRR in a hypoxic microenvironment could exert a beneficial effect in vivo, autologous ckit+CSCs were transplanted into mouse heart following MI. Interestingly, transplantation of ckit+CSCs lowered apoptotic rates and induced autophagy in the peri-infarct area; further, it reduced hypertrophy and fibrosis and, most importantly, improved cardiac function. ckit+CSCs are able to adapt to a hypoxic environment and activate an inflammatory and reparative response that could account, at least in part, for a protective effect on stressed cardiomyocytes following transplantation in the infarcted heart.

Abstract
The purinergic transduction was examined in mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from the human adipose tissue, and several nucleotides, including ATP, UTP, and ADP, were found to mobilize cytosolic Ca2+. Transcripts for multiple purinoreceptors were detected in MSC preparations, including A1, A2A, A2B, P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y4, P2Y6, P2Y11, P2Y13, P2Y14, P2X2, P2X4, and P2X7. Cellular responses to nucleotides were insignificantly sensitive to bath Ca2+, pointing at a minor contribution of Ca2+ entry, and were suppressed by U73122 and 2-APB, implicating the phosphoinositide cascade in coupling P2Y receptors to Ca2+ release. While individual cells were sensitive to several P2Y agonists, responsiveness to a given nucleotide varied from cell to cell, suggesting that particular MSCs could employ different sets of purinoreceptors. Caged Ca2+ stimulated Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) that was mediated largely by IP3 receptors, and resultant Ca2+ transients were similar to nucleotide responses by magnitude and kinetics. A variety of findings hinted at CICR to be a universal mechanism that finalizes Ca2+ signaling initiated by agonists in MSCs. Individual MSCs responded to nucleotides in an all-or-nothing manner. Presumably just CICR provided invariant Ca2+ responses observed in MSCs at different nucleotide concentrations. The effects of isoform specific agonists and antagonists suggested that both P2Y1 and P2Y13 were obligatory for ADP responses, while P2Y4 and P2Y11 served as primary UTP and ATP receptors, respectively. Extracellular NAD+ stimulated Ca2+ signaling in each ATP-responsive MSC by involving P2Y11. The overall data indicate that extracellular nucleotides and NAD+ can serve as autocrine/paracrine factors regulating MSC functions.

Abstract
The ability of cells to migrate to the destined tissues or lesions is crucial for physiological processes from tissue morphogenesis, homeostasis and immune responses, and also for stem cell-based regenerative medicines. Cytosolic Ca2+ is a primary second messenger in the control and regulation of a wide range of cell functions including cell migration. Extracellular ATP, together with the cognate receptors on the cell surface, ligand-gated ion channel P2X receptors and a subset of G-protein-coupled P2Y receptors, represents common autocrine and/or paracrine Ca2+ signalling mechanisms. The P2X receptor ion channels mediate extracellular Ca2+ influx, whereas stimulation of the P2Y receptors triggers intracellular Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and activation of both type of receptors thus can elevate the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]c), albeit with different kinetics and capacity. Reduction in the ER Ca2+ level following the P2Y receptor activation can further induce store-operated Ca2+ entry as a distinct Ca2+ influx pathway that contributes in ATP-induced increase in the [Ca2+]c. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are a group of multipotent stem cells that grow from adult tissues and hold promising applications in tissue engineering and cell-based therapies treating a great and diverse number of diseases. There is increasing evidence to show constitutive or evoked ATP release from stem cells themselves or mature cells in the close vicinity. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms for ATP release and clearance, the receptors and ion channels participating in ATP-induced Ca2+ signalling and the roles of such signalling mechanisms in mediating ATP-induced regulation of MSC migration.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP and other nucleotides induce autocrine and/or paracrine purinergic signalling via activation of the P2 receptors on the cell surface, which represents one of the most common signalling mechanisms. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are a type of multipotent adult stem cells that have many promising applications in regenerative medicine. There is increasing evidence to show that extracellular nucleotides regulate MSC functions and P2 receptor-mediated purinergic signalling plays an important role in such functional regulation. P2 receptors comprise ligand-gated ion channel P2X receptors and G-protein-coupled P2Y receptors. In this review, we provide an overview of the current understanding with respect to expression of the P2X and P2Y receptors in MSC and their roles in mediating extracellular nucleotide regulation of MSC proliferation, migration and differentiation.
