Abstract
Neuroscientists and Cell Biologists have known for many decades that eukaryotic cells, including neurons, are surrounded by a plasmalemma/axolemma consisting of a phospholipid bilayer that regulates trans-membrane diffusion of ions (including calcium) and other substances. Cells often incur plasmalemmal damage via traumatic injury and various diseases. If the damaged plasmalemma is not rapidly repaired within minutes, activation of apoptotic pathways by calcium influx often results in cell death. We review publications reporting what is less-well known (and not yet covered in neuroscience or cell biology textbooks): that calcium influx at the lesion sites ranging from small nm-sized holes to complete axonal transection activates parallel biochemical pathways that induce vesicles/membrane-bound structures to migrate and interact to restore original barrier properties and eventual reestablishment of the plasmalemma. We assess the reliability of, and problems with, various measures (e.g., membrane voltage, input resistance, current flow, tracer dyes, confocal microscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy) used individually and in combination to assess plasmalemmal sealing in various cell types (e.g., invertebrate giant axons, oocytes, hippocampal and other mammalian neurons). We identify controversies such as plug versus patch hypotheses that attempt to account for currently available data on the subcellular mechanisms of plasmalemmal repair/sealing. We describe current research gaps and potential future developments, such as much more extensive correlations of biochemical/biophysical measures with sub-cellular micromorphology. We compare and contrast naturally occurring sealing with recently-discovered artificially-induced plasmalemmal sealing by polyethylene glycol (PEG) that bypasses all natural pathways for membrane repair. We assess other recent developments such as adaptive membrane responses in neighboring cells following injury to an adjacent cell. Finally, we speculate how a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in natural and artificial plasmalemmal sealing is needed to develop better clinical treatments for muscular dystrophies, stroke and other ischemic conditions, and various cancers.

TRPML1-Induced Lysosomal Ca 2+ Signals Activate AQP2 Translocation and Water Flux in Renal Collecting Duct Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24021647. [PMID: 36675161 PMCID: PMC9861594 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24021647] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Revised: 01/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Lysosomes are acidic Ca2+ storage organelles that actively generate local Ca2+ signaling events to regulate a plethora of cell functions. Here, we characterized lysosomal Ca2+ signals in mouse renal collecting duct (CD) cells and we assessed their putative role in aquaporin 2 (AQP2)-dependent water reabsorption. Bafilomycin A1 and ML-SA1 triggered similar Ca2+ oscillations, in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, by alkalizing the acidic lysosomal pH or activating the lysosomal cation channel mucolipin 1 (TRPML1), respectively. TRPML1-dependent Ca2+ signals were blocked either pharmacologically or by lysosomes' osmotic permeabilization, thus indicating these organelles as primary sources of Ca2+ release. Lysosome-induced Ca2+ oscillations were sustained by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ content, while bafilomycin A1 and ML-SA1 did not directly interfere with ER Ca2+ homeostasis per se. TRPML1 activation strongly increased AQP2 apical expression and depolymerized the actin cytoskeleton, thereby boosting water flux in response to an hypoosmotic stimulus. These effects were strictly dependent on the activation of the Ca2+/calcineurin pathway. Conversely, bafilomycin A1 led to perinuclear accumulation of AQP2 vesicles without affecting water permeability. Overall, lysosomal Ca2+ signaling events can be differently decoded to modulate Ca2+-dependent cellular functions related to the dock/fusion of AQP2-transporting vesicles in principal cells of the CD.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) acts as a crucial energy currency in vivo, and it is a widely used energy and/or phosphate donor for enzyme-catalyzed reactions in vitro. In this study, we established an in vitro multi-enzyme cascade system for ATP production. Using adenosine and inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) as key substrates, we combined adenosine kinase and two functionally distinct polyphosphate kinases (PPKs) in a one-pot reaction to achieve chain-like ATP regeneration and production. Several sources of PPK were screened and characterized, and two suitable PPKs were selected to achieve high rates of ATP production. Among these, Sulfurovum lithotrophicum PPK (SlPPK) exhibited excellent activity over a wide pH range (pH 4.0-9.0) and synthesized ATP from ADP using short-chain polyP. Furthermore, it had a half-life > 155.6 h at 45 °C. After optimizing the reaction conditions, we finally carried out the coupling-catalyzed reaction with different initial adenosine concentrations of 10, 20, and 30 mM. The highest yields of ATP were 76.0, 70.5, and 61.3%, respectively.

Abstract
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) regulates diverse brain functions via TrkB receptor signaling. Due to the expression of TrkB receptors, astrocytes can internalize extracellular BDNF proteins via receptor-mediated endocytosis. Endocytosed BDNF can be re-secreted upon stimulation, but the molecular mechanism underlying this phenomenon remains unrecognized. Our study reveals that vesicle-associated membrane protein 3 (Vamp3) selectively regulates the release of endocytic BDNF from astrocytes. By using quantum dot (QD)-conjugated mature BDNF (QD-BDNF) as a proxy for the extracellular BDNF protein, we monitored the uptake, transport, and secretion of BDNF from cultured cortical astrocytes. Our data showed that endocytic QD-BDNF particles were enriched in Vamp3-containing vesicles in astrocytes and that ATP treatment sufficiently triggered either the antero- or retrograde transport and exocytosis of QD-BDNF-containing vesicles. Downregulation of Vamp3 expression disrupted endocytic BDNF secretion from astrocytes but did not affect uptake or transport. Collectively, these results provide evidence of the selective ability of astrocytic Vamp3 to control endocytic BDNF secretion during BDNF recycling.

Abstract
Purinergic signaling regulates several renal physiological and pathophysiological processes. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoparticles released by most cell types, which, in non-renal tissues, modulate purinergic signaling. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of EVs from renal proximal tubule (HK2) and collecting duct cells (HCD) on intra- and intersegment modulation of extracellular ATP levels, the underlying molecular mechanisms, and the impact on the expression of the alpha subunit of the epithelial sodium channel (αENaC). HK2 cells were exposed to HK2 EVs, while HCD cells were exposed to HK2 and HCD EVs. Extracellular ATP levels and αENaC expression were measured by chemiluminescence and qRT-PCR, respectively. ATPases in EV populations were identified by mass spectrometry. The effect of aldosterone was assessed using EVs from aldosterone-treated cells and urinary EVs (uEVs) from primary aldosteronism (PA) patients. HK2 EVs downregulated ectonucleoside-triphosphate-diphosphohydrolase-1 (ENTPD1) expression, increased extracellular ATP and downregulated αENaC expression in HCD cells. ENTPD1 downregulation could be attributed to increased miR-205-3p and miR-505 levels. Conversely, HCD EVs decreased extracellular ATP levels and upregulated αENaC expression in HCD cells, probably due to enrichment of 14-3-3 isoforms with ATPase activity. Pretreatment of donor cells with aldosterone or exposure to uEVs from PA patients enhanced the effects on extracellular ATP and αENaC expression. We demonstrated inter- and intrasegment modulation of renal purinergic signaling by EVs. Our findings postulate EVs as carriers of information along the renal tubules, whereby processes affecting EV release and/or cargo may impact on purinergically regulated processes.

Abstract
Purinergic receptors of the P2 subclass are commonly found in human and rodent macrophages where they can be activated by adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) or uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) to mediate Ca2+ mobilization, resulting in downstream signalling to promote inflammation and pain. However, little is understood regarding these receptors in canine macrophages. To establish a macrophage model of canine P2 receptor signalling, the expression of these receptors in the DH82 canine macrophage cell line was determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunocytochemistry. P2 receptor function in DH82 cells was pharmacologically characterised using nucleotide-induced measurements of Fura-2 AM-bound intracellular Ca2+. RT-PCR revealed predominant expression of P2X4 receptors, while immunocytochemistry confirmed predominant expression of P2Y2 receptors, with low levels of P2X4 receptor expression. ATP and UTP induced robust Ca2+ responses in the absence or presence of extracellular Ca2+. ATP-induced responses were only partially inhibited by the P2X4 receptor antagonists, 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)-ATP (TNP-ATP), paroxetine and 5-BDBD, but were strongly potentiated by ivermectin. UTP-induced responses were near completely inhibited by the P2Y2 receptor antagonists, suramin and AR-C118925. P2Y2 receptor-mediated Ca2+ mobilization was inhibited by U-73122 and 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), indicating P2Y2 receptor coupling to the phospholipase C and inositol triphosphate signal transduction pathway. Together this data demonstrates, for the first time, the expression of functional P2 receptors in DH82 canine macrophage cells and identifies a potential cell model for studying macrophage-mediated purinergic signalling in inflammation and pain in dogs.

Abstract
As critical regulators of brain homeostasis, microglia are influenced by numerous factors, including sex and genetic mutations. To study the impact of these factors on microglia biology, we employed genetically engineered mice that model Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a disorder characterized by clinically relevant sexually dimorphic differences. While microglia phagocytic activity was reduced in both male and female heterozygous Nf1 mutant (Nf1+/-) mice, purinergic control of phagocytosis was only affected in male Nf1+/- mice. ATP-induced P2Y-mediated membrane currents and P2RY12-dependent laser lesion-induced accumulation of microglial processes were also only impaired in male, but not female Nf1+/-, microglia. These defects resulted from Nf1+/- male-specific defects in cyclic AMP regulation, rather than from changes in purinergic receptor expression. Cyclic AMP elevation by phosphodiesterase blockade restored the male Nf1+/- microglia defects in P2Y-dependent membrane currents and process motility. Taken together, these data establish a sex-by-genotype interaction important to microglia function in the adult mouse brain.

Abstract
FBN1 encodes asprosin, a glucogenic hormone, following furin cleavage of the C-terminus of profibrillin 1. Based on evolutionary conservation between FBN1 and FBN2, together with conserved furin cleavage sites, we identified a peptide hormone placensin encoded by FBN2 based on its high expression in trophoblasts of human placenta. In primary and immortalized murine hepatocytes, placensin stimulates cAMP production, protein kinase A (PKA) activity, and glucose secretion, accompanied by increased expression of gluconeogenesis enzymes. In situ perfusion of liver and in vivo injection with placensin also stimulate glucose secretion. Placensin is secreted by immortalized human trophoblastic HTR-8/SVneo cells, whereas placensin treatment stimulates cAMP-PKA signaling in these cells, accompanied by increases in MMP9 transcripts and activities, thereby promoting cell invasion. In pregnant women, levels of serum placensin increase in a stage-dependent manner. During third trimester, serum placensin levels of patients with gestational diabetes mellitus are increased to a bigger extent compared to healthy pregnant women. Thus, placensin represents a placenta-derived hormone, capable of stimulating glucose secretion and trophoblast invasion.

Abstract
The understanding of the nucleotide/P2 receptor system in the regulation of renal hemodynamics and transport function has grown exponentially over the last 20 yr. This review attempts to integrate the available data while also identifying areas of missing information. First, the determinants of nucleotide concentrations in the interstitial and tubular fluids of the kidney are described, including mechanisms of cellular release of nucleotides and their extracellular breakdown. Then the renal cell membrane expression of P2X and P2Y receptors is discussed in the context of their effects on renal vascular and tubular functions. Attention is paid to effects on the cortical vasculature and intraglomerular structures, autoregulation of renal blood flow, tubuloglomerular feedback, and the control of medullary blood flow. The role of the nucleotide/P2 receptor system in the autocrine/paracrine regulation of sodium and fluid transport in the tubular and collecting duct system is outlined together with its role in integrative sodium and fluid homeostasis and blood pressure control. The final section summarizes the rapidly growing evidence indicating a prominent role of the extracellular nucleotide/P2 receptor system in the pathophysiology of the kidney and aims to identify potential therapeutic opportunities, including hypertension, lithium-induced nephropathy, polycystic kidney disease, and kidney inflammation. We are only beginning to unravel the distinct physiological and pathophysiological influences of the extracellular nucleotide/P2 receptor system and the associated therapeutic perspectives.

Signaling pathways involved in adaptive responses to cell membrane disruption. CURRENT TOPICS IN MEMBRANES 2019; 84:99-127.

Abstract
Plasma membrane disruption occurs frequently in many animal tissues. Cell membrane disruption induces not only a rapid and massive influx of Ca2+ into the cytosol but also an efflux or release of various signaling molecules, such as ATP, from the cytosol; in turn, these signaling molecules stimulate a variety of pathways in both wounded and non-wounded neighboring cells. These signals first trigger cell membrane repair responses in the wounded cell but then induce an adaptive response, which results in faster membrane repair in the event of future wounds in both wounded and non-wounded neighboring cells. In addition, signaling pathways stimulated by membrane disruption induce other adaptive responses, including cell survival, regeneration, migration, and proliferation. This chapter summarizes the role of intra- and intercellular signaling pathways in adaptive responses triggered by cell membrane disruption.

Effect of sevoflurane on the ATPase activity of hippocampal neurons in a rat model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury via the cAMP-PKA signaling pathway. Kaohsiung J Med Sci 2017; 34:22-33.

Abstract
We aim to investigate the effects of sevoflurane on the ATPase activity of the hippocampal neurons in rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) via the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and protein kinase A (PKA) signaling pathway. Sixty rats were assigned into the normal, model and sevoflurane groups (n = 20, the latter two groups were established as focal cerebral IRI models). The ATPase activity was detected using an ultramicro Na (+)-K (+)-ATP enzyme kit. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the positive protein expression of cAMP and PKA. The hippocampal neurons were assigned to the normal, IRI, IRI + sevoflurane, IRI + forskolin, IRI + H89 and IRI + sevoflurane + H89 groups. qRT-PCR and Western blotting were performed for the expressions of cAMP, PKA, cAMP-responsive element-binding protein (CREB) and brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). The normal and sevoflurane groups exhibited a greater positive protein expression of cAMP and PKA than the model group. Compared with the normal group, the expressions of cAMP, PKA, CREB and BDNF all reduced in the IRI, model and IRI + H89 groups. The sevoflurane group showed higher cAMP, PKA, CREB and BDNF expressions than the model group. Compared with the IRI group, ATPase activity and expressions of cAMP, PKA, CREB and BDNF all increased in the normal, IRI + sevoflurane and IRI + forskolin groups but decreased in the IRI + H89 group. It suggests that sevoflurane could enhance ATPase activity in hippocampal neurons of cerebral IRI rats through activating cAMP-PKA signaling pathway.

Abstract
The P2Y11 receptor is a member of the purinergic receptor family. It has been overlooked, somewhat due to the lack of a P2ry11 gene orthologue in the murine genome, which prevents the generation of knockout mice, which have been so helpful for defining the roles of other P2Y receptors. Furthermore, some of the studies reported to date have methodological shortcomings, making it difficult to determine the function of P2Y11 with certainty. In this review, we discuss the lack of a murine "P2Y11-like receptor" and highlight the limitations of the currently available methods used to investigate the P2Y11 receptor. These methods include protein recognition with antibodies that show very little specificity, gene expression studies that completely overlook the existence of a fusion transcript between the adjacent PPAN gene and P2RY11, and agonists/antagonists reported to be specific for the P2Y11 receptor but which have not been tested for activity on numerous other adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP)-binding receptors. We suggest a set of criteria for evaluating whether a dataset describes effects mediated by the P2Y11 receptor. Following these criteria, we conclude that the current evidence suggests a role for P2Y11 in immune activation with cell type-specific effects.

Short-term potentiation of membrane resealing in neighboring cells is mediated by purinergic signaling. Purinergic Signal 2015; 10:283-90.

Abstract
Resealing of a disrupted plasma membrane in the micron-size range requires Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis. When cells are wounded twice, the second membrane disruption reseals more quickly than the initial wound. This response is protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent and protein kinase A dependent in the early stages. In the long term (24 h), potentiation of membrane resealing in a wounded cell depends on gene expression mediated by a transcription factor, cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element binding protein(CREB), which is activated by a PKC-dependent and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase-dependent pathway. In addition,a recent study demonstrated that wounding of Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells potentiates membrane resealing in neighboring cells by activating CREB-dependent gene expression through nitric oxide (NO) signaling. The present study demonstrated that wounding of MDCK cells induces short-term potentiation of membrane resealing in neighboring cells in addition to a long-term response. Inhibition of purinergic signaling suppressed short-term potentiation of membrane resealing in neighboring cells, but not long-term potentiation. By contrast, inhibition of NO signaling did not suppress the short-term response in neighboring cells. These results suggest that cell membrane disruption stimulates at least two intercellular signaling pathways, NO and purinergic signaling, to potentiate cell membrane resealing in neighboring cells.

Abstract
Intracellular ATP is the most vital source of cellular energy for biologic systems, whereas extracellular ATP is a multifaceted mediator of several cell functions via its interaction, in an autocrine or paracrine manner, with P2 purinergic receptors expressed on the cell surface. These ionotropic and metabotropic P2 purinergic receptors modulate a variety of physiologic events upon the maintenance of a highly sensitive "set point," the derangement of which may lead to the development of key pathogenic mechanisms during acute and chronic diseases. Growing evidence suggests that extracellular ATP signaling via P2 purinergic receptors may be involved in different renal pathologic conditions. For these reasons, investigators and pharmaceutical companies are actively exploring novel strategies to antagonize or block these receptors with the goal of reducing extracellular ATP production or accelerating extracellular ATP clearance. Targeting extracellular ATP signaling, particularly through the P2X7 receptor, has considerable translational potential, given that novel P2X7-receptor inhibitors are already available for clinical use (e.g., CE224,535, AZD9056, and GSK1482160). This review summarizes the current evidence regarding the involvement of extracellular ATP and its P2 purinergic receptor-mediated signaling in physiologic and pathologic processes in the kidney; potential therapeutic options targeting extracellular ATP purinergic receptors are analyzed as well.

Abstract
The involvement of purinergic signalling in kidney physiology and pathophysiology is rapidly gaining recognition and this is a comprehensive review of early and recent publications in the field. Purinergic signalling involvement is described in several important intrarenal regulatory mechanisms, including tuboglomerular feedback, the autoregulatory response of the glomerular and extraglomerular microcirculation and the control of renin release. Furthermore, purinergic signalling influences water and electrolyte transport in all segments of the renal tubule. Reports about purine- and pyrimidine-mediated actions in diseases of the kidney, including polycystic kidney disease, nephritis, diabetes, hypertension and nephrotoxicant injury are covered and possible purinergic therapeutic strategies discussed.

Abstract
Primary cilium has emerged as mechanosensor to subtle flow variations in epithelial cells, but its role in shear stress detection remains controversial. To probe the function of this non-motile organelle in shear stress detection by cells, we compared calcium signalling responses induced by shear stress in ciliated and unciliated MDCK cells. Cytosolic free Ca²⁺ ([Ca²⁺]i) was measured using Fura-PE3 video imaging fluorescence microscopy in response to shear stress due to laminar flow (385 μl s⁻¹). Our results show that both unciliated and ciliated MDCK cells are shear stress sensitive via ATP release and autocrine feedback through purinergic receptors. However, purinergic calcium signals differed in response intensity and receptor subtypes. In unciliated cells, shear stress-induced elevation in [Ca²⁺]i was predominantly mediated through P2X receptors (P2XR). In contrast, calcium mobilization in ciliated MDCK cells resulted from P2YRs and store-operated Ca²⁺-permeable channels besides P2XRs. These findings lend support to the hypothesis that ATP release in response to shear stress is independent of the primary cilium and that transduction of mechanical strain into a specific biochemical responses stems on the mobilization of different sets of purinergic receptors.

Abstract
Intracellular Ca2+ transients are evoked either by the opening of Ca2+ channels on the plasma membrane or by phospholipase C (PLC) activation resulting in IP3 production. Ca2+ wave propagation is known to occur in mechanically stimulated cells; however, it remains uncertain whether and how PLC activation is involved in intracellular Ca2+ wave propagation in mechanically stimulated cells. To answer these questions, it is indispensable to clarify the spatio-temporal relations between intracellular Ca2+ wave propagation and PLC activation. Thus, we visualized both cytosolic Ca2+ and PLC activation using a real-time dual-imaging system in individual Mardin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells. This system allowed us to simultaneously observe intracellular Ca2+ wave propagation and PLC activation in a spatio-temporal manner in a single mechanically stimulated MDCK cell. The results showed that PLC was activated not only in the mechanically stimulated region but also in other subcellular regions in parallel with intracellular Ca2+ wave propagation. These results support a model in which PLC is involved in Ca2+ signaling amplification in mechanically stimulated cells.

Abstract
We cultured canine kidney (MDCK) cells stably expressing aquaporin-2 (AQP2) on collagen-coated permeable membrane filters and examined the effect of extracellular ATP on arginine vasopressin (AVP)-stimulated fluid transport and cAMP production. Exposure of cell monolayers to basolateral AVP resulted in stimulation of apical to basolateral net fluid transport driven by osmotic gradient which was formed by addition of 500 mM mannitol to basolateral bathing solution. Pre-exposure of the basolateral surface of cell monolayers to ATP (100 microM) for 30 min significantly inhibited the AVP-stimulated net fluid transport. In these cells, AVP-stimulated cAMP production was suppressed as well. Profile of the effects of different nucleotides suggested that the P2Y(2) receptor is involved in the action of ATP. ATP inhibited the effect of isoproterenol as well, but not that of forskolin to stimulate cAMP production. The inhibitory effect of ATP on AVP-stimulated fluid movement was attenuated by a protein kinase C inhibitor, calphostin C or pertussis toxin. These results suggest that prolonged activation of the P2 receptors inhibits AVP-stimulated fluid transport and cAMP responses in AQP2 transfected MDCK cells. Depressed responsiveness of the adenylyl cyclase by PKC-mediated modification of the pertussis-toxin sensitive G(i) protein seems to be the underlyihng mechanism.

Abstract
The SYT proto-oncoprotein (also known as SS18) is a gene expression regulator conserved across species. Although its biological function is still unknown, the importance of SYT as a housekeeping protein is illustrated by the lethal phenotype of SYT-null embryos. Notably, SYT is a component of the synovial sarcoma-associated translocation product, the SYT-SSX oncogene. SYT was previously reported as a mediator of cell adhesion. In the present study we show that SYT possesses distinct domains that control MDCK cyst formation in three-dimensional collagen cultures. While the carboxy-half of SYT, the QPGY domain, is required for cyst growth, the amino-terminal region appears to exert on this process a regulatory effect. Further analysis suggested that the purinergic G protein-coupled P2Y receptor signaling is involved in SYT-induced cystogenesis. Activation of this cascade is due to facilitation of ATP release in the extracellular space of polarized MDCK cells by SYT. These studies allow us to begin to understand the vital role of SYT in controlling epithelial morphogenesis and might explain the lethality of its loss in the developing embryo.

Abstract
Extracellular nucleotides (e.g., ATP) regulate physiological and pathophysiological processes through activation of nucleotide P2 receptors in the plasma membrane. Examples include such diverse processes as communication from taste buds to gustatory nerves, platelet aggregation, nociception, or neutrophil chemotaxis. Over approximately the last 15 years, evidence has also accumulated that cells in renal epithelia release nucleotides in response to physiological stimuli and that these nucleotides act in a paracrine and autocrine way to activate P2 receptors and play a significant role in the regulation of transport mechanisms and cell volume regulation. This review discusses potential stimuli and mechanisms involved in nucleotide release in renal epithelia and summarizes the available data on the expression and function of nucleotide P2 receptors along the native mammalian tubular and collecting duct system. Using established agonist profiles for P2 receptor subtypes, significant insights have been gained particularly into a potential role for P2Y(2)-like receptors in the regulation of transport mechanisms in the collecting duct. Due to the lack of receptor subtype-specific antagonists, however, the in vivo relevance of P2 receptor subtypes is unclear. Studies in gene knockout mice provided first insights including an antihypertensive activity of P2Y(2) receptors that is linked to an inhibitory influence on renal Na(+) and water reabsorption. We are only beginning to unravel the important roles of extracellular nucleotides and P2 receptors in the regulation of the diverse transport mechanisms of the kidney.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused by genetic mutations in either PKD1 or PKD2, the genes that encode polycystin-1 (PC-1) and polycystin-2 (PC-2), respectively. ADPKD is characterized by the formation of multiple, progressive, fluid-filled renal cysts. To elucidate the mechanism of fluid secretion by ADPKD cysts, we examined the effect of PC-1 on the plasma membrane expression of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), a key Cl(-) secretory protein. Five stably transfected MDCK lines were used in this study: two transfected with empty vector (control cells) and three expressing human PC-1 (PC-1 cells). The cAMP-induced endogenous short circuit currents (I(sc)) were smaller in PC-1 cells than in control cells. Compared to control cells, PC-1 cells transiently expressing pEGFP-CFTR showed significant reduction of whole cell cAMP-activated Cl(-) currents. Cell surface biotinylation experiments also indicated a reduction in surface expression of CFTR in PC-1 cells compared to control. Furthermore, studies using CHO cells transiently expressing PC-1 and CFTR suggest the importance of the PC-1 COOH-terminus in the observed reduction of CFTR plasma membrane expression. No differences in either endogeneous K(+) currents or P2Y receptor responses were observed between PC-1 and control cells, indicating the specificity of PC-1's action. These results indicate that PC-1 selectively maintains low cell surface expression of CFTR. Moreover, these findings suggest that the malfunction of PC-1 enhances plasma membrane expression of CFTR, thus causing abnormal Cl(-)secretion into the cyst lumen.

Abstract
P2Y receptors couple to G proteins and either mobilize intracellular Ca(2+) or alter cAMP levels to modulate the activity of Ca(2+)- and cAMP-sensitive ion channels. We hypothesize that increased ion transport into the lumen of MDCK cysts can osmotically drive fluid movement and increase cyst size. Furthermore, activation of the adenylate cyclase/cAMP pathway may trigger cell proliferation via an extracellular signal-related kinase cascade. To test this hypothesis, several P2Y receptor inhibitors were used on the MDCK in vitro model of renal cyst formation. The nonspecific P2 receptor inhibitors reactive blue 2 and suramin reduced cyst growth significantly, as did PPADS and, to a lesser extent, the P2Y(1)-specific antagonist MRS2179. Cyst growth was reduced by approximately 50% when ATP was removed from the culture medium with apyrase, although stable analogs of ATP failed to increase cyst size. The nonselective P2X receptor inhibitor Coomassie brilliant blue G was ineffective at reducing cyst growth, suggesting no involvement of P2X receptors. Finally, the presence of selective inhibitors of ERK activation (either PD98059 or U0126) greatly reduced cyst growth, whereas in untreated cysts ERK activity was observed to increase with time. We conclude that stimulation of endogenous P2Y receptors by extracellular ATP increases growth of MDCK cysts via cAMP-dependent activation of the ERK pathway. P2Y receptor antagonists may have therapeutic potential in reducing cyst size and slowing disease progression; although further studies in vitro and in vivo are needed to investigate the specificity and role of these P2Y receptors in renal cystic diseases.

Abstract
Nucleotide binding to purinergic P2Y receptors contributes to the regulation of a variety of physiological functions in renal epithelial cells. Here, we investigate the regulatory mechanism of the P2Y1 receptor agonist 2-methylthioadenosine diphosphate (2-MeSADP) on Cl- transport in A6 cells, a commonly used model of the distal section of the Xenopus laevis nephron. Protein and mRNA expression analysis together with functional measurements demonstrated the basolateral location of the Xenopus P2Y1 receptor. 2-MeSADP increased intracellular [Ca2+] and cAMP and Cl- efflux, responses that were all inhibited by the specific P2Y1 receptor antagonist MRS 2179. Cl- efflux was also inhibited by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) blocker glibenclamide. Inhibition of either protein kinase A (PKA) or the binding between A-kinase-anchoring proteins (AKAPs) and the regulatory PKA RII subunit blocked the 2-MeSADP-induced activation of CFTR, suggesting that PKA mediates P2Y1 receptor regulation of CFTR through one or more AKAPs. Further, the truncation of the PDZ1 domain of the scaffolding protein Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor-2 (NHERF-2) inhibited 2-MeSADP-dependent stimulation of Cl- efflux, suggesting the involvement of this scaffolding protein. Activation or inhibition of PKC had no effect per se on basal Cl- efflux but potentiated or reduced the 2-MeSADP-dependent stimulation of Cl- efflux, respectively. These data suggest that the X laevis P2Y1 receptor in A6 cells can increase both cAMP/PKA and Ca2+/PKC intracellular levels and that the PKC pathway is involved in CFTR activation via potentiation of the PKA pathway.

Abstract
This study examines the mechanism of P 2Y-induced Cl- secretion in monolayers of C7-Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells triggered by basolateral application of ATP and measured as transcellular short current (I(SC)). Both ATP-induced arachidonic acid (AA) synthesis and I(SC) in ATP-treated cells were abolished by the phosholipase A2 (PLA2) inhibitor, AACOCF3. The cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor indomethacin decreased I(SC) and cAMP production in ATP-treated cells with an IC50 of approximately 0.3 microm. ATP led to rapid activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA), as estimated by phosphorylation of a vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein. PKA activity and I(SC) evoked by ATP, as well as by prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), were diminished in the presence of the PKA inhibitor H-89 or an adenovirus-mediated expression of PKA-inhibitor protein, PKI. In contrast, indomethacin completely blocked the increment of PKA and I(SC) triggered by ATP and AA, but did not affect PKA activation and I(SC) detected with PGE1. The kinetics of [Ca2+]i elevation in ATP- and thapsigargin-treated cells were similar and suppressed by the Ca(2+)i chelator BAPTA. Neither baseline nor maximal increment of ATP-induced I(SC) was affected by thapsigargin and BAPTA. Real-time PCR showed that C7 cells express more mRNA for P 2Y1 and P 2Y2 than for other P 2Y receptor subtypes. The rank order of potency (2MeSATP > ATP > ADP >> UTP) indicates that P 2Y1 rather than P 2Y2 receptors contribute to PKA and I(SC) activation. Viewed collectively, these data show that Cl- secretion in C7-MDCK monolayers treated with basolateral ATP is triggered by P 2Y1 receptors and is mediated by subsequent [Ca2+]i-independent activation of PLA2 and PKA.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP plays an important role in the regulation of renal function. However, the effect of ATP on the Na(+)-glucose cotransporters (SGLTs) has not been elucidated in proximal tubule cells (PTCs). Therefore, this study was performed to examine the action of ATP on SGLTs and their related signal pathways in primary cultured rabbit renal PTCs. ATP increased [(14)C]-alpha-methyl-d-glucopyranoside (alpha-MG) uptake in a time-dependent (>1 h) and dose-dependent (>10(-6) M) manner. ATP stimulated alpha-MG uptake by increasing in V(max) without affecting K(m). ATP-induced increase of alpha-MG uptake was correlated with the increase in both SGLT1 and SGLT2 protein expression levels. ATP-induced stimulation of alpha-MG uptake was blocked by suramin (nonspecific P2 receptor antagonist), RB-2 (P2Y receptor antagonist), and MRS-2179 (P2Y(1) receptor antagonist), suggesting a role for the P2Y receptor. ATP-induced stimulation of alpha-MG uptake was blocked by pertussis toxin (PTX, a G(i) protein inhibitor), SQ-22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor), and PKA inhibitor amide 14-22 (PKI). ATP also increased cAMP formation, which was blocked by PTX and RB-2. However, pretreatment of adenosine deaminase did not block ATP-induced cAMP formation. In addition, ATP-induced stimulation of alpha-MG uptake was blocked by SB-203580 (p38 MAPK inhibitor), but not by PD-98059 (p44/42 MAPK inhibitor) or SP-600125 (JNK inhibitor). Indeed, ATP induced phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. In conclusion, ATP increases alpha-MG uptake via cAMP and p38 MAPK in renal PTCs.

Abstract
Eight human G protein-coupled P2Y receptors (P2Y(1), P2Y(2), P2Y(4), P2Y(6), P2Y(11), P2Y(12), P2Y(13), and P2Y(14)) that respond to extracellular nucleotides have been molecularly identified and characterized. P2Y receptors are widely expressed in epithelial cells and play an important role in regulating epithelial cell function. Functional studies assessing the capacity of various nucleotides to promote increases in short-circuit current (I(sc)) or Ca(2+) mobilization have suggested that some subtypes of P2Y receptors are polarized with respect to their functional activity, although these results often have been contradictory. To investigate the polarized expression of the family of P2Y receptors, we determined the localization of the entire P2Y family after expression in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) type II cells. Confocal microscopy of polarized monolayers revealed that P2Y(1), P2Y(11), P2Y(12), and P2Y(14) receptors reside at the basolateral membrane, P2Y(2), P2Y(4), and P2Y(6) receptors are expressed at the apical membrane, and the P2Y(13) receptor is unsorted. Biotinylation studies and I(sc) measurements in response to the appropriate agonists were consistent with the polarized expression observed in confocal microscopy. Expression of the G(q)-coupled P2Y receptors (P2Y(1), P2Y(2), P2Y(4), P2Y(6), and P2Y(11)) in lung and colonic epithelial cells (16HBE14o- and Caco-2 cells, respectively) revealed a targeting profile nearly identical to that observed in MDCK cells, suggesting that polarized targeting of these P2Y receptor subtypes is not a function of the type of epithelial cell in which they are expressed. These experiments highlight the highly polarized expression of P2Y receptors in epithelial cells.

Abstract
The release of nucleotides is involved in mechanosensation in various epithelial cells. Intriguingly, kidney epithelial cells are absolutely dependent on the primary cilium to sense changes in apical laminar flow. During fluid passage, the renal epithelial cells are subjected to various mechanical stimuli in addition to changes in the laminar flow rate. In the distal part of the collecting duct, the epithelial cells are exposed to pressure changes and possibly distension during papillary contractions. The aim of the present study was to determine whether nucleotide release contributes to mechanosensation in kidney epithelial cells, thereby establishing whether pressure changes are sufficient to produce nucleotide-mediated responses. Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells grown on permeable supports were mounted in a closed double perfusion chamber on an inverted microscope. The intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) was monitored with the Ca(2+)-sensitive fluorescence probe fluo 4. Transepithelial pressure pulses of 30-80 mm Hg produced a transient increase in [Ca(2+)](i) of MDCK cells. This response is independent of the primary cilium, since it is readily observed in immature cells that do not yet express primary cilia. The amplitudes of the pressure-induced Ca(2+) transients varied with the applied chamber pressure in a quantity-dependent manner. The ATPase apyrase and the P2Y antagonist suramin significantly reduced the pressure-induced Ca(2+) transients. Applying apyrase or suramin to both sides of the preparation simultaneously nearly abolished the pressure-induced Ca(2+) response. In conclusion, these observations suggest that rapid pressure changes induce both apical and basolateral nucleotide release that contribute to mechanosensation in kidney epithelial cells.

Abstract
ATP is an extracellular regulator in numerous physiological and pathologic processes. Recently, 7 different subtypes of purinoceptors were identified on either the basolateral or the luminal membrane of pancreatic duct cells. However, the in vivo regulatory role of ATP in pancreatic function has not been established. We investigated the possible regulatory role of endogenous ATP in pancreatic function by measuring ATP concentrations and ATPase activity in pancreatic juice obtained from anesthetized rats and guinea pigs and from human patients undergoing endoscopy. Juice was collected from the main pancreatic duct in rats and guinea pigs under basal conditions or during stimulation with CCK, bombesin, or secretin. In guinea pigs, CCK, bombesin, and secretin did not affect ATP output, although they did stimulate fluid secretion. ATPase activity in the juice was evaluated by measuring the rate of hydrolysis of added ATP. Consistent with the low ATP concentrations in rat pancreatic juice, we found high levels of ATPase activity in this species. This was confirmed by HPLC, which also showed the metabolites of ATP hydrolysis. Ecto-ATPase activity was demonstrated by enzyme histochemistry in both the pancreatic acini and ducts in rats, but it was not detectable in guinea pigs and humans. These differences in ATP levels and ATPase expression may indicate significant species differences in the purinergic regulation of pancreatic secretion.

Abstract
Extracellular nucleotides activate P2Y receptors, thereby increasing cAMP formation in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK-D(1)) cells, which express P2Y(1), P2Y(2), and P2Y(11) receptors (Post, S. R., Rump, L. C., Zambon, A., Hughes, R. J., Buda, M. D., Jacobson, J. P., Kao, C. C., and Insel, P. A. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 23093-23097). The cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin (indo) eliminates UTP-promoted cAMP formation (i.e. via P2Y(2) receptors) but only partially blocks ATP-promoted cAMP formation. The latter response is completely blocked by the nonselective P2Y receptor antagonist suramin. We have sought to identify the mechanism for this P2Y receptor-mediated, indo-resistant cAMP formation. The agonist rank order potencies for cAMP formation were: ADP beta S > or = MT-ADP > 2-MT-ATP > ADP, ATP, ATP gamma S > UTP, AMP, adenosine. We found a similar rank order in MDCK-D(1) cells overexpressing cloned green fluorescent protein-tagged P2Y(11) receptors, but the potency of the agonists was enhanced, consistent with a P2Y(11) receptor-mediated effect. cAMP generation by the P2Y(1) and P2Y(11) receptor agonist ADP beta S was not inhibited by several P2Y(1)-selective antagonists (PPADS, A2P5P, and MRS 2179). Forskolin synergistically enhanced cAMP generation in response to ADP beta S or PGE(2), implying that, like PGE(2), ADP beta S activates adenylyl cyclase via G(s), a conclusion supported by results showing ADP beta S and MT-ADP promoted activation of adenylyl cyclase activity in MDCK-D(1) membranes. We conclude that nucleotide-promoted, indo-resistant cAMP formation in MDCK-D(1) cells occurs via G(s)-linked P2Y(11) receptors. These data describing adenylyl cyclase activity via endogenous P2Y(11) receptors define a mechanism by which released nucleotides can increase cAMP in MDCK-D(1) and other P2Y(11)-containing cells.

Abstract
Nucleotides have diverse effects on water and electrolyte reabsorption within the distal tubule of the nephron. As the distal tubule is important in control of renal Mg(2+) balance, we determined the effects of ATP on cellular Mg(2+) uptake in this segment. The effects of ATP on immortalized mouse distal convoluted tubule (MDCT) cells were studied by measuring Mg(2+) uptake with fluorescence techniques. The mean basal Mg(2+) uptake rate was 165 +/- 6 nM/s. ATP inhibited basal Mg(2+) uptake and hormone-stimulated Mg(2+) entry by 40%. Both P2X (P2X1-P2X5 subtypes) and P2Y2 receptor subtypes were identified in MDCT cells using differential RT-PCR. Activation of both receptor subtypes with selective agonists increased intracellular Ca(2+) concentration, P2X purinoceptors by ionotropic-gated channels, and P2Y receptors via G protein-mediated intracellular Ca(2+) release. The more relatively selective P2X agonists [beta,gamma-methylene ATP (beta,gamma-Me-ATP) and 2'- and -3'-O-(4-benzoyl-benzoyl)-ATP] inhibited arginine vasopressin (AVP)- and parathyroid hormone (PTH)-mediated Mg(2+) uptake whereas agonists more selective for P2Y purinoceptors (UTP, ADP, and 2-methylthio-ATP) were without effect. Removal of extracellular Ca(2+) diminished beta,gamma-Me-ATP-mediated increase in intracellular Ca(2+) and inhibition of AVP-stimulated Mg(2+) entry. We conclude from this information that ATP inhibited Mg(2+) uptake in MDCT cells through P2X purinoceptors expressed in this distal convoluted tubule cell line.

Abstract
Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells release ATP upon mechanical or biochemical activation, initiating P2Y receptor signaling that regulates basal levels of multiple second messengers, including cAMP (J Biol Chem 275: 11735--11739, 2000). Data shown here document inhibition of cAMP formation by Gd(3+) and niflumic acid, channel inhibitors that block ATP release. cAMP production is stimulated via Ca(2+)-dependent activation of cytosolic phospholipase A(2), release of arachidonic acid (AA), and cyclooxygenase (COX)-dependent production of prostaglandins, which activate prostanoid receptors coupled to G(s) and adenylyl cyclase. In the current investigation, we assessed the expression and functional role of the two known isoforms of COX, COX-1 and COX-2. Treatment of cells with either a COX-1-selective inhibitor, SC-560, or COX-2-selective inhibitors, SC-58125 or NS-398, inhibited basal and UTP-stimulated cAMP levels. COX inhibitors also decreased forskolin-stimulated cAMP formation, implying this response is in part attributable to an action of AA metabolites. These findings imply an important role for the inducible form of COX, COX-2, under basal conditions. Indeed, COX-2 expression was readily detectable by immunoblot, and treatments that induce or reduce COX-2 expression in other cells (interleukin-1beta, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, phorbol ester, or dexamethasone) had minimal or no effect on the levels of COX-2 immunoreactivity. RT-PCR using isoform-specific primers detected COX-2 mRNA. We conclude that COX-2 is constitutively expressed in MDCK-D(1) cells and participates in basal and P2Y(2)-mediated signaling, implying a key role for COX-2 in regulation of epithelial cell function.

Abstract
The P2Y(11) receptor is hypothesized to link to both G(s) and G(q), although this proposition is based on expression and separate assays of G(s) and G(q) function in different cell types [J Biol Chem 1997;272:31969-31973]. We have cloned and characterized a canine P2Y(11)-like (cP2Y(11)) receptor from cultured Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK-D1) cells. When cP2Y(11) receptors are expressed in canine thymocyte (CF2Th) cells that normally lack functional purinergic responses, ADP beta S stimulates phosphatidylinositol (PI) hydrolysis, Ca(2+) mobilization, and cAMP accumulation. Pharmacologic analysis indicates that the stimulation of cAMP production is direct and not a result of eicosanoid synthesis, activation of PKC, or elevation of cell Ca(2+). The rank order of potency for stimulation of PI hydrolysis by cP2Y(11) receptors (adenosine 5'-(2-O-thio) diphosphate = 2-methylthio-ADP >/= 2-methylthio-ATP >> ADP > ATP) differs from that of hP2Y(11) receptors. Microscopic examination of MDCK-D1 cells expressing carboxyl-terminal green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged cP2Y(11) (cP2Y(11)-GFP) receptors indicates primarily basolateral (BL) targeting. BL addition of 200 microM ADP beta S to confluent monolayers of MDCK-D1 cells produces an increase in short circuit current (I(sc)) (11.6 +/- 1.6 microA/cm(2)) whereas apical addition of agonist has no effect, confirming targeting of functional endogenous P2Y(11) receptors to the BL surface. In contrast, when either cP2Y(11) or cP2Y(11)-GFP is overexpressed in MDCK-D1 cells, the sensitivity of I(sc) to BL agonist increases by nearly 2 orders of magnitude, as if receptor density normally limited agonist potency; moreover, apical addition of ADP beta S now produces an increase in I(sc) but with low potency. The data support the BL localization of cP2Y(11) receptors and receptor coupling to changes in I(sc) in MDCK-D1 cells except in cases in which receptors are overexpressed; receptor overexpression leads to altered sensitivities and sites of coupling to physiologic responses.

Abstract
During the past two decades, several cell membrane receptors, which preferentially bind extracellular nucleotides, and their analogs have been identified. These receptors, collectively known as nucleotide receptors or "purinergic" receptors, have been characterized and classified on the basis of their biological actions, their pharmacology, their molecular biology, and their tissue and cell distribution. For these receptors to have biological and physiological relevance, nucleotides must be released from cells. The field of extracellular ATP release and signaling is exploding, as assays to detect this biological process increase in number and ingenuity. Studies of ATP release have revealed a myriad of roles in local regulatory (autocrine or paracrine) processes in almost every tissue in the body. The regulatory mechanisms that these receptors control or modulate have physiological and pathophysiological roles and potential therapeutic applications. Only recently, however, have ATP release and nucleotide receptors been identified along the renal epithelium of the nephron. This work has set the stage for the study of their physiological and pathophysiological roles in the kidney. This review provides a comprehensive presentation of these issues, with a focus on the renal epithelium.

Abstract
We previously demonstrated that extracellular ATP stimulated macrophage death and mycobacterial killing within Mycobacterium bovis Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-infected human macrophages. ATP increases the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration in macrophages by mobilizing intracellular Ca(2+) via G protein-coupled P2Y receptors, or promoting the influx of extracellular Ca(2+) via P2X purinoceptors. The relative contribution of these receptors and Ca(2+) sources to ATP-stimulated macrophage death and mycobacterial killing was investigated. We demonstrate that 1) ATP mobilizes Ca(2+) in UTP-desensitized macrophages (in Ca(2+)-free medium) and 2) UTP but not ATP fails to deplete the intracellular Ca(2+) store, suggesting that the pharmacological properties of ATP and UTP differ, and that a Ca(2+)-mobilizing P2Y purinoceptor in addition to the P2Y(2) subtype is expressed on human macrophages. ATP and the Ca(2+) ionophore, ionomycin, promoted macrophage death and BCG killing, but ionomycin-mediated macrophage death was inhibited whereas BCG killing was largely retained in Ca(2+)-free medium. Pretreatment of cells with thapsigargin (which depletes inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate-mobilizable intracellular stores) or 1,2-bis-(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N, N, N',N'-tetraacetic acid acetoxymethyl ester (an intracellular Ca(2+) chelator) failed to inhibit ATP-stimulated macrophage death but blocked mycobacterial killing. Using the acidotropic molecular probe, 3-(2,4-dinitroanilino)-3'-amino-N-methyl dipropylamine, it was revealed that ATP stimulation promoted the acidification of BCG-containing phagosomes within human macrophages, and this effect was similarly dependent upon Ca(2+) mobilization from intracellular stores. We conclude that the cytotoxic and bactericidal effects of ATP can be uncoupled and that BCG killing is not the inevitable consequence of death of the host macrophage.

Abstract
Pancreatic duct epithelial cells (PDEC) mediate the exocrine secretion of fluid and electrolytes. We previously reported that ATP and UTP interact with P2Y(2) receptors on nontransformed canine PDEC to increase intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+](i)) and stimulate Ca2+-activated Cl- and K+ channels. We now report that ATP interacts with additional purinergic receptors to increase cAMP and activate Cl- channels. ATP, 2-methylthio-ATP, and ATP-gamma-S stimulated a 4- to 10-fold cAMP increase with EC(50) of 10-100 microM. Neither UTP nor adenosine stimulated a cAMP increase, excluding a role for P2Y(2) or P1 receptors. Although UTP stimulated an (125)I(-) efflux that was fully inhibited by 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetra(acetoxymethyl) ester (BAPTA-AM), ATP stimulated a partially resistant efflux, suggesting activation of additional Cl- conductances through P2Y(2)-independent and Ca2+-independent pathways. In Ussing chambers, increased cAMP stimulated a much larger short-circuit current (I(sc)) increase from basolaterally permeabilized PDEC monolayers than increased [Ca2+](i). Luminal ATP and UTP and serosal UTP stimulated a small Ca2+-type I(sc) increase, whereas serosal ATP stimulated a large cAMP-type I(sc) response. Serosal ATP effect was inhibited by P2 receptor blockers and unaffected by BAPTA-AM, supporting ATP activation of Cl- conductances through P2 receptors and a Ca2+-independent pathway. RT-PCR confirmed the presence of P2Y(11) receptor mRNA, the only P2Y receptor acting via cAMP.

Abstract
ATP, besides an intracellular energy source, is an agonist when applied to a variety of different cells including cardiomyocytes. Sources of ATP in the extracellular milieu are multiple. Extracellular ATP is rapidly degraded by ectonucleotidases. Today ionotropic P2X(1--7) receptors and metabotropic P2Y(1,2,4,6,11) receptors have been cloned and their mRNA found in cardiomyocytes. On a single cardiomyocyte, micromolar ATP induces nonspecific cationic and Cl(-) currents that depolarize the cells. ATP both increases directly via a G(s) protein and decreases Ca(2+) current. ATP activates the inward-rectifying currents (ACh- and ATP-activated K(+) currents) and outward K(+) currents. P2-purinergic stimulation increases cAMP by activating adenylyl cyclase isoform V. It also involves tyrosine kinases to activate phospholipase C-gamma to produce inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange to induce a large transient acidosis. No clear correlation is presently possible between an effect and the activation of a given P2-receptor subtype in cardiomyocytes. ATP itself is generally a positive inotropic agent. Upon rapid application to cells, ATP induces various forms of arrhythmia. At the tissue level, arrhythmia could be due to slowing of electrical spread after both Na(+) current decrease and cell-to-cell uncoupling as well as cell depolarization and Ca(2+) current increase. In as much as the information is available, this review also reports analog effects of UTP and diadenosine polyphosphates.

Abstract
ATP has been shown to activate the phospholipase C/diacylglycerol/protein kinase C (PKC) pathway. However, little is known about the downstream signaling events. The present study was designed to examine the effect of ATP on activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway and its physiological role in human granulosa-luteal cells. Western blot analysis, using a monoclonal antibody that detected the phosphorylated forms of extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1 and -2 (p42(mapk) and p44 (mapk), respectively), demonstrated that ATP activated MAPK in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Treatment of the cells with suramin (a P2 purinoceptor antagonist), neomycin (a phospholipase C inhibitor), staurosporin (a PKC inhibitor), or PD98059 (an MAPK/ERK kinase inhibitor) significantly attenuated the ATP-induced activation of MAPK. In contrast, ATP-induced MAPK activation was not significantly affected by pertussis toxin (a G(i) inhibitor). To examine the role of G(s) protein, the intracellular cAMP level was determined after treatment with ATP or hCG. No significant elevation of intracellular cAMP was noted after ATP treatment. To determine the role of MAPK in steroidogenesis, human granulosa-luteal cells were treated with ATP, hCG, or ATP plus hCG in the presence or absence of PD98059. RIA revealed that ATP alone did not significantly affect the basal progesterone concentration. However, hCG-induced progesterone production was reduced by ATP treatment. PD98059 reversed the inhibitory effect of ATP on hCG-induced progesterone production. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of ATP-induced activation of the MAPK signaling pathway in the human ovary. These results support the idea that the MAPK signaling pathway is involved in mediating ATP actions in the human ovary.

Abstract
1. Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, a well- differentiated renal epithelial cell line derived from distal tubule/collecting duct, respond to extracellular nucleotides by altering ion flux and the production of arachidonic acid-derived products, in particular prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). Our work has defined the receptors and signalling events involved in such responses. 2. We have found evidence for expression of at least three P2Y receptor subtypes (P2Y1, P2Y2 and P2Y11) in MDCK-D1 cells, a subclone from parental MDCK. 3. These receptors appear to couple to increases in calcium and protein kinase C activity, probably via a Gq/G11-mediated activation of phospholipase C. 4. In addition, P2Y receptor activation can promote a prominent increase in cAMP. This includes both a P2Y2 receptor-mediated cyclo-oxygenase (COX)-dependent component and another COX-independent component mediated by other P2Y receptors. 5. We have documented that changing media in which cells are grown releases ATP and, in turn, activates P2Y receptors. Such release of ATP contributes in a major way to basal cAMP levels in these cells. 6. The data indicate that MDCK cells are a useful model to define the regulation of epithelial cells by extracellular nucleotides. Of particular note, spontaneous or stretch-induced release of ATP and subsequent activation of one or more P2Y receptors contributes to establishing the basal activity of signalling pathways.

Abstract
This study was attempted to characterize pharmacologically the P2Y receptors triggering phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) activation in ampulla from frog semicircular canal. A microassay was developed to screen the abilities of UTP analogs to stimulate [(3)H]arachidonic acid release by labeled ampullas. At 26 degrees C UTP induced a dose-dependent and saturable increase of PLA(2) activity (apparent activation constant 1.3 +/- 0.4 microM, Hill coefficient 0.9 +/- 0.2, maximal stimulating factor 2.0 +/- 0.1). The rank order of potency of agonists for PLA(2) activation was UTP > or = UDP > adenosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) = adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) > or = ATP = 2-methylthio-ATP > or = ADP = diadenosine tetraphosphate > or = alpha,beta-methylene-ATP = CTP > 2' and 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)-ATP > or = AMP = UMP >> uridine and adenosine. UTP- and 2-methylthio-ATP-induced PLA(2) activations were inhibited by U-73122, GF-109203X, and methyl arachidonyl fluorophosphate. Basal activity was stimulated by phorbol ester and epinephrine and reduced by vasotocin, isoproterenol, prostaglandin E(2), cAMP, and forskolin. H-89 restored the cAMP- and forskolin-inhibited PLA(2) activities. Results indicate that P2Y receptor-mediated PLA(2) stimulation requires phopholipase C and protein kinase C activations and basal activity is inhibited by agonist-stimulated cAMP-dependent mechanisms.

Abstract
Renin secretion can be stimulated by ATP via purinergic P2Y receptors. ATP is a cotransmitter with norepinephrine and is released from the cytosol during cell damage. Such release could account for the de novo renin expression seen in the proximal tubule in renal disease and in myocardial infarct borders. Whereas most P2Y purinoceptor subtypes utilize phosphoinositide signal-transduction pathways, the effector mechanisms of the subtype P2Y(11) also involve increases in cAMP, a well-known renin secretagogue and stimulus to renin production. The present study tested the effect of ATP on human renin gene (REN) promoter activity and the role of P2Y(11). By means of reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, we found that renin-expressing Calu-6 cells express P2Y(11) mRNA. Expression was also detected in the brain, kidney, testis, muscle, liver, and spleen. We made a novel cell line (Calu-6/P2Y11) in which P2Y(11) cDNA, under the control of a strong promoter, was stably integrated into genomic DNA. These cells produced P2Y(11) mRNA during culture. Treatment of Calu-6/P2Y11 cells with 1 mmol/L ATP caused a 3-fold increase in renin mRNA and protein over 36 hours. Transient transfection of Calu-6/P2Y11 cells with constructs containing 896 bp of human REN 5'-flanking DNA linked to the luciferase reporter gene led to a 5.8+/-0.6-fold increase (mean+/-SEM) in reporter activity in response to ATP (P=0.0015). In contrast, UTP produced only a 1.4+/-0.1-fold increase (P=0.016). For ADP, it was 1.7+/-0.1-fold (P=0.011). The response profile was ATP>ADP>AMP=adenosine=0, consistent with a P2Y(11) effect. Mutation of the cAMP response element (CRE) located at -222 in the REN promoter DNA abolished the effect of ATP. Furthermore, ATP induced a rapid, time-dependent increase in the phosphorylation of CRE binding protein (CREB) and activating transcription factor-1. These data implicate a cAMP pathway in mediation of the P2Y(11) effect. In conclusion, we have made a novel cell line that overexpresses the P2Y(11) purinoceptor. Stimulation of these cells by ATP activates a cAMP signal-transduction pathway that phosphorylates CREB and stimulates renin promoter activity via the CRE at -222. The data raise the possibility of a contribution of ATP/P2Y(11) effects to sympathetic stimulation of renin, as well as to responses in renin seen after tissue damage, such as in kidney disease and myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK)-D1 cells, a canine renal epithelial cell line, co-express at least three different P2Y receptor subtypes: P2Y(1), P2Y(2), and P2Y(11) (24). Stimulation of P2Y receptors in these cells results in the release of arachidonic acid (AA) and metabolites and the elevation of intracellular cAMP. To define in more precise terms the signaling contributed by the MDCK-D1 P2Y(2) (cP2Y(2)) receptor, we have cloned and heterologously expressed it in CF2Th (canine thymocyte) cells, a P2Y(2)-null cell. Analysis by RT-PCR indicated that canine P2Y(2) receptors are expressed in skeletal muscle, spleen, kidney, lung, and liver. When expressed in CF2Th cells, cP2Y(2) receptors promoted phospholipase C-mediated phosphatidylinositol (PI) hydrolysis [uridine 5'-triphosphate > or = ATP > adenosine 5'-diphosphate > 2MT-ATP] and mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+). In contrast to their actions in MDCK-D1 cells, cP2Y(2) receptors did not stimulate formation of cAMP or AA release when expressed in CF2Th cells. The data indicate that cell setting plays an essential role in the ability of P2Y receptors to regulate AA release and cAMP formation. In particular, renal epithelial cells preferentially express components critical for cP2Y(2)-induced cAMP formation, including the expression of enzymes involved in the generation and metabolism of AA and receptors that respond to PGE(2).

Abstract
Sympathetic activation of brown fat thermogenesis stimulates adrenergic and purinergic receptors. We examined the effects of extracellular ATP and beta-adrenergic agonists on voltage-activated K currents (IKv) in voltage-clamped rat brown adipocytes. ATP or the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol increased the development of IKv inactivation during depolarizing voltage steps in perforated patch-clamped cells. The effects on inactivation developed slowly in the presence of agonist and continued to increase for long times following agonist washout. 8-bromo-cAMP or forskolin had similar effects on IKv inactivation. Development of IKv inactivation during depolarizations was consistently enhanced by ATP or beta-adrenergic stimulation in perforated-patch voltage-clamped cells but was not altered by these agents in whole cell recordings, suggesting that cytosolic factors are necessary for inactivation modulation. In either recording configuration, ATP or isoproterenol shifted the activation voltage dependence of IKv to more negative potentials, indicating the activation effect is mediated by a different pathway. Since both P2 purinergic and beta-adrenergic signaling pathways generate fatty acids, we tested whether fatty acids could reproduce these modulations of IKv. Linoleic or arachidonic acid applied in whole cell recordings had effects similar to those of ATP or isoproterenol in perforated-patch experiments. These results are consistent with the possibility that beta-adrenergic and P2 receptor stimulation modulate IKv through generation of fatty acids.

Abstract
Priming of NB4 promyelocytic cells with all-trans retinoic acid, followed by extracellular ATP in the presence of a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, elevated cAMP and activated protein kinase A. The order of potency for cAMP production was ATP (EC50 = 95 +/- 13 micromol/L) > ADP > AMP = adenosine. The order of potency of ATP analogues was 2'- and 3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)-ATP (EC50 = 54 +/- 15 micromol/L) = adenosine 5'-O-(3-thio) triphosphate (EC50 = 66 +/- 4 micromol/L) > ATP > beta,gamma-methylene ATP (EC50 = 200 +/- 55 micromol/L). Adenosine 5'-O-thiomonophosphate and adenosine 5'-O-(2-thio) diphosphate inhibited ATP-induced cAMP production. Differentiation also occurred as measured by increased expression of CD11b and N-formyl peptide receptor and changes in cell morphology. UTP did not elevate cAMP or induce differentiation, indicating that P2Y2, P2Y4, and P2Y6 receptors were not involved. The P2Y11 receptor, a cAMP-linked receptor on promyelocytic HL-60 cells, was detected in NB4 cells by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and northern blotting. This receptor has the same order of potency with respect to cAMP production as that observed in HL-60 cells.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP promotes a wide range of physiological effects in many tissues. Of particular interest is the effect of ATP on leukaemia-derived HL-60 and NB4 cell lines, which are induced to mature to neutrophil-like cells. The differentiation process appears to be mediated by ATP binding to a cell-surface purinergic P2Y receptor, resulting in the stimulation of adenylyl cyclase, elevation of cAMP levels and activation of protein kinase A. In 1997, a novel ATP-selective P2Y receptor, P2Y11, was cloned and shown to be linked to both cAMP and Ca2+ signalling pathways. The pharmacological profile of ATP analogues used by P2Y11 for cAMP production in transfected cells is reviewed in the present paper and shown to be closely similar to the profiles for cAMP production and differentiation of myeloblastic HL-60 cells and promyelocytic NB4 cells, both of which express P2Y11. Additional data are provided showing that HL-60 mature to neutrophil-like cells in response to extracellular ATP, as measured by upregulation of the N-formyl peptide receptor, N-formyl peptide-mediated actin polymerization and superoxide production. It is proposed that P2Y11 is responsible for the ATP-mediated differentiation of these cells lines and that this receptor may play a role in the maturation of granulocytic progenitors in the bone marrow.

Abstract
We have used the patch-clamp technique to study the effects of changing extracellular ATP concentration on the activity of the small-conductance potassium channel (SK) on the apical membrane of the mouse cortical collecting duct. In cell-attached patches, the channel conductance and kinetics were similar to its rat homologue. Addition of ATP to the bathing solution of split-open single cortical collecting ducts inhibited SK activity. The inhibition of the channel by ATP was reversible, concentration dependent (K(i) = 64 microM), and could be completely prevented by pretreatment with suramin, a specific purinergic receptor (P(2)) blocker. Ranking of the inhibitory potency of several nucleotides showed strong inhibition by ATP, UTP, and ATP-gamma-S, whereas alpha, beta-Me ATP, and 2-Mes ATP failed to affect channel activity. This nucleotide sensitivity is consistent with P(2)Y(2) purinergic receptors mediating the inhibition of SK by ATP. Single channel analysis further demonstrated that the inhibitory effects of ATP could be elicited through activation of apical receptors. Moreover, the observation that fluoride mimicked the inhibitory action of ATP suggests the activation of G proteins during purinergic receptor stimulation. Channel inhibition by ATP was not affected by blocking phospholipase C and protein kinase C. However, whereas cAMP prevented channel blocking by ATP, blocking protein kinase A failed to abolish the inhibitory effects of ATP. The reduction of K channel activity by ATP could be prevented by okadaic acid, an inhibitor of protein phosphatases, and KT5823, an agent that blocks protein kinase G. Moreover, the effect of ATP was mimicked by cGMP and blocked by L-NAME (N(G)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester). We conclude that the inhibitory effect of ATP on the apical K channel is mediated by stimulation of P(2)Y(2) receptors and results from increasing dephosphorylation by enhancing PKG-sensitive phosphatase activity.
