Abstract
Wound healing is a dynamic process required to maintain skin integrity and which relies on the precise migration of different cell types. A key molecule that regulates this process is ATP. However, the mechanisms involved in extracellular ATP management are poorly understood, particularly in the human dermis. Here, we explore the role, in human fibroblast migration during wound healing, of Pannexin 1 channels and their relationship with purinergic signals and in vivo cell surface filamentous actin dynamics. Using siRNA against Panx isoforms and different Panx1 channel inhibitors, we demonstrate in cultured human dermal fibroblasts that the absence or inhibition of Panx1 channels accelerates cell migration, increases single-cell motility, and promotes actin redistribution. These changes occur through a mechanism that involves the release of ATP to the extracellular space through a Panx1-dependent mechanism and the activation of the purinergic receptor P2X7. Together, these findings point to a pivotal role of Panx1 channels in skin fibroblast migration and suggest that these channels could be a useful pharmacological target to promote damaged skin healing.

Abstract
Cells constantly sense their chemical and mechanical environments. We study the effect of mechanics on the ATP-induced collective calcium response of fibroblast cells in experiments that mimic various tissue environments. We find that closely packed two-dimensional cell cultures on a soft polyacrylamide gel (Young's modulus E = 690 Pa) contain more cells exhibiting calcium oscillations than cultures on a rigid substrate (E = 36 000 Pa). Calcium responses of cells on soft substrates show a slower decay of calcium level relative to those on rigid substrates. Actin enhancement and disruption experiments for the cell cultures allow us to conclude that actin filaments determine the collective Ca(2+) oscillatory behaviour in the culture. Inhibition of gap junctions results in a decrease of the oscillation period and reduced correlation of calcium responses, which suggests additional complexity of signalling upon cell-cell contact. Moreover, the frequency of calcium oscillations is independent of the rigidity of the substrate but depends on ATP concentration. We compare our results with those from similar experiments on individual cells. Overall, our observations show that collective chemical signalling in cell cultures via calcium depends critically on the mechanical environment.

Abstract
The phenomenon of multidrug resistance (MDR) is reinterpreted on the basis of the recently proposed concept of microvillar signaling. According to this notion, substrate and ion fluxes across the surface of differentiated cells occur via transporters and ion channels that reside in membrane domains at the tips of microvilli (MV). The flux rates are regulated by the actin-based cytoskeletal core structure of MV, acting as a diffusion barrier between the microvillar tip compartment and the cytoplasm. The expression of this diffusion barrier system is a novel aspect of cell differentiation and represents a functional component of the natural defense system of epithelial cells against environmental hazardous ions and lipophilic compounds. Because of the specific organization of epithelial Ca(2+) signaling and the secretion, lipophilic compounds associated with the plasma membrane are transferred from the basal to the apical cell surface by a lipid flow mechanism. Drug release from the apical pole occurs by either direct secretion from the cell surface or metabolization by the microvillar cytochrome P-450 system and efflux of the metabolites and conjugation products through the large multifunctional anion channels localized in apical MV. The natural microvillar defense system also provides a mechanistic basis of acquired MDR in tumor cells. The microvillar surface organization is lost in rapidly growing cells such as tumor or embryonic cells but is restored during exposure of tumor cells to cytotoxins by induction of a prolonged G(0)/G(1) resting phase.

Abstract
To test for the role of the P2Y(2) receptor (P2Y(2)-R) in the regulation of nucleotide-promoted Ca(2+) signaling in the lung, we generated P2Y(2)-R-deficient (P2Y(2)-R(-/-)) mice and measured intracellular Ca(2+)(i) responses (DeltaCa(2+)(i)) to nucleotides in cultured lung fibroblasts and nasal and tracheal epithelial cells from wild type and P2Y(2)-R(-/-) mice. In the wild type fibroblasts, the rank order of potencies for nucleotide-induced DeltaCa(2+)(i) was as follows: UTP >/= ATP >> ADP > UDP. The responses induced by these agonists were completely absent in the P2Y(2)-R(-/-) fibroblasts. Inositol phosphate responses paralleled those of DeltaCa(2+)(i) in both groups. ATP and UTP also induced Ca(2+)(i) responses in wild type airway epithelial cells. In the P2Y(2)-R(-/-) airway epithelial cells, UTP was ineffective. A small fraction (25%) of the ATP response persisted. Adenosine and alpha,beta-methylene ATP were ineffective, and ATP responses were not affected by adenosine deaminase or by removal of extracellular Ca(2+), indicating that neither P1 nor P2X receptors mediated this residual ATP response. In contrast, 2-methylthio-ADP promoted a substantial Ca(2+)(i) response in P2Y(2)-R(-/-) cells, which was inhibited by the P2Y(1) receptor antagonist adenosine 3'-5'-diphosphate. These studies demonstrate that P2Y(2)-R is the dominant purinoceptor in airway epithelial cells, which also express a P2Y(1) receptor, and that the P2Y(2)-R is the sole purinergic receptor subtype mediating nucleotide-induced inositol lipid hydrolysis and Ca(2+) mobilization in mouse lung fibroblasts.

Abstract
It is hoped that this summary of the history and current status of purinoceptors will convince readers that receptors for purines are now established alongside other well-known extracellular messenger systems. These receptors are primitive, widespread and serve many different systems. Receptors of adenosine (P1-purinoceptors) are clearly different from receptors of ATP (P2-purinoceptors). As for other major transmitters such as acetylcholine, GABA, glutamate and 5-HT, receptors of two major families are activated by ATP, one (the P2X-purinoceptor family) mediates fast responses via ligand-gated ion channels, while the other (the P2Y-purinoceptor family) mediates slower responses via G-proteins (see Table 3). Subclasses of these two families have been suggested on the basis of recent molecular biology studies and the development of new selective agonists and antagonists (Abbracchio and Burnstock, 1994). It would indeed be helpful if the work on purinoceptors could be extended to studies of their chemical structure employing crystallography.

Abstract
The retraction of axonal branches is a prominent feature of nervous system development and function. Although various biological and pathological signals can elicit retraction, little is known regarding their underlying mode of action. An in vitro assay using NG108-15 cells was used to demonstrate that rapid-onset neurites exposed acutely to trypsin, serum, lysophosphatidic acid, extracellular ATP, the phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, and nocodazole were all protected from retraction by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein. This finding indicates that a common (genistein-sensitive) cellular event is involved in integrating the influence of multiple extrinsic and intrinsic signals and in regulating whether or not neurites will execute a retraction response.

Abstract
Migration and contraction are fibroblast activities in scar tissue formation which may contribute towards the failure of trabeculectomies. We attempted to modify the migration and contraction of Tenon's capsule fibroblasts in vitro using the drugs taxol, cytochalasin B and colchicine. Migration assays were conducted in 48-well micro-chemotaxis chambers, using rabbit aqueous humour which has been previously identified as a powerful chemoattractant for Tenon's fibroblasts, and fibronectin as the stimuli for migration. All three drugs inhibited the migration of fibroblasts to both fibronectin and aqueous humour, with maximal activity seen at 10(-6)M (taxol), 10(-5)M (cytochalasin B), and 10(-3) M (colchicine). In a single cell contractile assay in which contraction of whole fibroblasts was initiated with exogenous adenosine triphosphate (ATP), taxol and colchicine showed anticontractile activity, maximal at 10(-5)M and 10(-3)M respectively, but cytochalasin B was ineffective. The significance of the activities of these drugs in relation to their proposed use for improving the success of trabeculectomies is discussed.

Abstract
Trabeculectomy fails to control the intra-ocular pressure adequately in a proportion of patients. Approaches to solving this problem have involved modifications of surgery, histological studies of tissue from failed and functioning blebs, animal studies, and in vitro investigations of some of the basic processes of wound healing. This paper reviews the current state of investigations in these disciplines with particular reference to wound healing in this specialised site.

Abstract
In order to be able to investigate the properties and characteristics of glia in the retina, a monotypic culture of retinal glial cells is likely to be an important research vehicle. Several techniques are now available to produce cultures of glial cells from the retina. These methods generally result in cultures of Mueller cells rather than retinal astrocytes. Publications on glial cultures involved complex procedures for the isolation of the target cell. Recent developments have resulted in simpler procedures with the advantage that large numbers of cultures can be established quickly and easily. Glial cultures have already been used in a variety of studies, simpler methods of culture, particularly if these can be adapted for culture of human glial cells, will probably result in more extensive use of cultures to unravel the properties of retinal glia.
