Abstract
Ferroptosis, a regulated cell death hallmarked by excessive lipid peroxidation, is implicated in various (patho)physiological contexts. During ferroptosis, lipid peroxidation leads to a diverse change in membrane properties and the dysregulation of ion homeostasis via the cation channels, ultimately resulting in plasma membrane rupture. This review illuminates cellular membrane dynamics and cation handling in ferroptosis regulation.

Tewari M, Michalski S, Egan TM. Modulation of Microglial Function by ATP-Gated P2X7 Receptors: Studies in Rat, Mice and Human. Cells 2024; 13:161.

Abstract
P2X receptors are a family of seven ATP-gated ion channels that trigger physiological and pathophysiological responses in a variety of cells. Five of the family members are sensitive to low concentrations of extracellular ATP, while the P2X6 receptor has an unknown affinity. The last subtype, the P2X7 receptor, is unique in requiring millimolar concentrations to fully activate in humans. This low sensitivity imparts the agonist with the ability to act as a damage-associated molecular pattern that triggers the innate immune response in response to the elevated levels of extracellular ATP that accompany inflammation and tissue damage. In this review, we focus on microglia because they are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system, and they activate in response to ATP or its synthetic analog, BzATP. We start by introducing purinergic receptors and then briefly consider the roles that microglia play in neurodevelopment and disease by referencing both original works and relevant reviews. Next, we move to the role of extracellular ATP and P2X receptors in initiating and/or modulating innate immunity in the central nervous system. While most of the data that we review involve work on mice and rats, we highlight human studies of P2X7R whenever possible.

Requirement of Xk and Vps13a for the P2X7-mediated phospholipid scrambling and cell lysis in mouse T cells. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2022; 119:2119286119.

Abstract
A high extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentration rapidly and reversibly exposes phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) in T cells by binding to the P2X7 receptor, which ultimately leads to necrosis. Using mouse T cell transformants expressing P2X7, we herein performed CRISPR/Cas9 screening for the molecules responsible for P2X7-mediated PtdSer exposure. In addition to Eros, which is required for the localization of P2X7 to the plasma membrane, this screening identified Xk and Vps13a as essential components for this process. Xk is present at the plasma membrane, and its paralogue, Xkr8, functions as a phospholipid scramblase. Vps13a is a lipid transporter in the cytoplasm. Blue-native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that Xk and Vps13a interacted at the membrane. A null mutation in Xk or Vps13a blocked P2X7-mediated PtdSer exposure, the internalization of phosphatidylcholine, and cytolysis. Xk and Vps13a formed a complex in mouse splenic T cells, and Xk was crucial for ATP-induced PtdSer exposure and cytolysis in CD25+CD4+ T cells. XK and VPS13A are responsible for McLeod syndrome and chorea-acanthocytosis, both characterized by a progressive movement disorder and cognitive and behavior changes. Our results suggest that the phospholipid scrambling activity mediated by XK and VPS13A is essential for maintaining homeostasis in the immune and nerve systems.

Abstract
P2X7 receptor, a purinergic receptor family member, is abundantly expressed on many cells, including immune, muscle, bone, neuron, and glia. It acts as an ATP-activated cation channel that permits the influx of Ca2+, Na+ and efflux of K+ ions. The P2X7 receptor plays crucial roles in many physiological processes including cytokine and chemokine secretion, NLRP3 inflammasome activation, cellular growth and differentiation, locomotion, wound healing, transcription factors activation, cell death and T-lymphocyte survival. Past studies have demonstrated the up-regulation and direct association of this receptor in many pathophysiological conditions such as cancer, diabetics, arthritis, tuberculosis (TB) and inflammatory diseases. Hence, targeting this receptor is considered a worthwhile approach to lessen the afflictions associated with the disorders mentioned above by understanding the receptor architecture and downstream signalling processes. Here, in the present review, we have dissected the structural and functional aspects of the P2X7 receptor, emphasizing its role in various diseased conditions. This information will provide in-depth knowledge about the receptor and help to develop apt curative methodologies for the betterment of humanity in the coming years.

Abstract
In response to extracellular ATP, the purinergic receptor P2X7 mediates various biological processes, including phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) exposure, phospholipid scrambling, dye uptake, ion transport, and IL-1β production. A genome-wide CRISPR screen for molecules responsible for ATP-induced PtdSer exposure identified a transmembrane protein, essential for reactive oxygen species (Eros), as a necessary component for P2X7 expression. An Eros-null mouse T cell line lost the ability to expose PtdSer, to scramble phospholipids, and to internalize a dye YO-PRO-1 and Ca2+ ions. Eros-null mutation abolished the ability of an LPS-primed human THP-1 macrophage cell line and mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages to secrete IL-1β in response to ATP. Eros is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum and functions as a chaperone for NADPH oxidase components. Similarly, Eros at the endoplasmic reticulum transiently associated with P2X7 to promote the formation of a stable homotrimeric complex of P2X7. These results indicated that Eros acts as a chaperone not only for NADPH oxidase, but also for P2X7, and contributes to the innate immune reaction.

Abstract
Invariant NKT (iNKT) cells provide rapid innate T cell responses to glycolipid Ags from host cells and microbes. The numbers of CD1d-restricted iNKT cells are tightly controlled in mucosal tissues, but the mechanisms have been largely unclear. We found that vitamin A is a dominant factor that controls the population size of mucosal iNKT cells in mice. This negative regulation is mediated by the induction of the purinergic receptor P2X7 on iNKT cells. The expression of P2X7 is particularly high on intestinal iNKT cells, making iNKT cells highly susceptible to P2X7-mediated cell death. In vitamin A deficiency, iNKT cells fail to express P2X7 and are, therefore, resistant to P2X7-mediated cell death, leading to iNKT cell overpopulation. This phenomenon is most prominent in the intestine. We found that iNKT cells are divided into CD69+ sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1P1)- tissue resident and CD69- S1P1+ nonresident iNKT cells. The CD69+ S1P1- tissue-resident iNKT cells highly express P2X7 and are effectively controlled by the P2X7 pathway. The regulation of iNKT cells by vitamin A by the P2X7 pathway is important to prevent aberrant expansion of effector cytokine-producing iNKT cells. Our findings identify a novel role of vitamin A in regulating iNKT cell homeostasis in many tissues throughout the body.

Abstract
Immune cells of myeloid origin show robust expression of ATP-gated P2X7 receptors, two-transmembrane ion channels permeable to Na+, K+, and Ca2+ Receptor activation promotes inflammasome activation and release of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18. In this study, we show that ATP generates facilitating cationic currents in monocyte-derived human macrophages and permeabilizes the plasma membrane to polyatomic cationic dyes. We find that antagonists of PLA2 and Cl- channels abolish P2X7 receptor-mediated current facilitation, membrane permeabilization, blebbing, phospholipid scrambling, inflammasome activation, and IL-1β release. Our data demonstrate significant differences in the actions of ATP in murine and human macrophages and suggest that PLA2 and Cl- channels mediate innate immunity downstream of P2X7 receptors in human macrophages.

Abstract
The P2X7 receptor is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-gated cation channel that is expressed by several cells of the immune system. P2X7 is best known for its proinflammatory role in promoting inflammasome formation and release of mature interleukin (IL)-1β by innate immune cells. Mounting evidence indicates that P2X7 is also an important regulatory receptor of murine and human T cell functions. Murine T cells express a sensitive splice variant of P2X7 that can be activated either by non-covalent binding of ATP or, in the presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, by its covalent ADP-ribosylation catalyzed by the ecto-ADP-ribosyltransferase ARTC2.2. Prolonged activation of P2X7 by either one of these pathways triggers the induction of T cell death. Conversely, lower concentrations of ATP can activate P2X7 to enhance T cell proliferation and production of IL-2. In this review, we will highlight the molecular and cellular consequences of P2X7 activation on mouse T cells and its versatile role in T cell homeostasis and activation. Further, we will discuss important differences in the function of P2X7 on human and murine T cells.

Abstract
Purinergic P2X7 receptors (P2X7R) are fundamental to innate immune response. In macrophages, transient stimulation of P2X7R activates several transport mechanisms and induces the scrambling of phospholipids with subsequent membrane blebbing and apoptosis. These processes support phagocytosis and subsequent killing of phagocytosed bacteria. Here we demonstrate that the stimulation of P2X7 receptors activates anoctamin 6 (ANO6, TMEM16F), a protein that functions as Ca(2+) dependent phospholipid scramblase and Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) channel. Inhibition or knockdown of ANO6 attenuates ATP-induced cell shrinkage, cell migration and phospholipid scrambling. In mouse macrophages, Ano6 produces large ion currents by stimulation of P2X7 receptors and contributes to ATP-induced membrane blebbing and apoptosis, which is largely reduced in macrophages from Ano6-/- mice. ANO6 supports bacterial phagocytosis and killing by mouse and human THP-1 macrophages. Our data demonstrate that anoctamin 6 is an essential component of the immune defense by macrophages.

Abstract
Apoptosis, a type of genetically controlled cell death, is a fundamental cellular mechanism utilized by multicellular organisms for disposal of cells that are no longer needed or potentially detrimental. Given the crucial role of apoptosis in physiology, deregulation of apoptotic machinery is associated with various diseases as well as abnormalities in development. Acquired resistance to apoptosis represents the common feature of most and perhaps all types of cancer. Therefore, repairing and reactivating apoptosis represents a promising strategy to fight cancer. Accumulated evidence identifies ion channels as essential regulators of apoptosis. However, the contribution of specific ion channels to apoptosis varies greatly depending on cell type, ion channel type and intracellular localization, pathology as well as intracellular signaling pathways involved. Here we discuss the involvement of major types of ion channels in apoptosis regulation. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Membrane channels and transporters in cancers.

Abstract
The P2X7 receptor is a trimeric ATP-gated cation channel important in health and disease. We have observed that the specific phospholipase D (PLD)1 antagonist, CAY10593 impairs P2X7-induced shedding of the 'low affinity' IgE receptor, CD23. The current study investigated the mode of action of this compound on P2X7 activation. Measurements of ATP-induced ethidium(+) uptake revealed that CAY10593 impaired P2X7-induced pore formation in human RPMI 8226 B cells, P2X7-transfected HEK-293 cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Concentration response curves demonstrated that CAY10593 impaired P2X7-induced pore formation in RPMI 8226 cells more potently than the PLD2 antagonist CAY10594 and the non-specific PLD antagonist halopemide. Electrophysiology measurements demonstrated that CAY10593 also inhibited P2X7-induced inward currents. Notably, RT-PCR demonstrated that PLD1 was absent in RPMI 8226 cells, while choline-Cl medium or 1-butanol, which block PLD stimulation and signalling respectively did not impair P2X7 activation in these cells. This data indicates that CAY10593 impairs human P2X7 independently of PLD1 stimulation and highlights the importance of ensuring that compounds used in signalling studies downstream of P2X7 activation do not affect the receptor itself.

Abstract
Cell death proceeds by way of a variety of “cell death subroutines,” including several types of “apoptosis,” “regulated necrosis,” and others. “Accidental necrosis” due to profound adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletion or oxidative stress is distinguished from regulated necrosis by the absence of death receptor signaling. However, both accidental and regulated necrosis have in common the process of “oncosis,” a physiological process characterized by Na+ influx and cell volume increase that, in necrotic cell death, is required to produce the characteristic features of membrane blebbing and membrane rupture. Here, we review emerging evidence that the monovalent cation channel, transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4), is involved in the cell death process of oncosis. Potential involvement of TRPM4 in oncosis is suggested by the fact that the two principal regulators of TRPM4, intracellular ATP and Ca2+, are both altered during necrosis in the direction that causes TRPM4 channel opening. Under physiological conditions, activation of TRPM4 promotes Na+ influx and cell depolarization. Under pathological conditions, unchecked activation of TRPM4 leads to Na+ overload, cell volume increase, blebbing and cell membrane rupture, the latter constituting the irreversible end stage of necrosis. Emerging data indicate that TRPM4 plays a crucial role as end executioner in the accidental necrotic death of ATP-depleted or redox-challenged endothelial and epithelial cells, both in vitro and in vivo. Future studies will be needed to determine whether TRPM4 also plays a role in regulated necrosis and apoptosis.

Abstract
The presence of P2X7 on erythroid cells is well established, but its physiological role remains unclear. The current study aimed to determine if P2X7 activation induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation in murine erythroleukaemia (MEL) cells, a commonly used erythroid cell line. ATP induced ROS formation in a time- and concentration-dependent fashion. The most potent P2X7 agonist, 2'(3')-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)ATP, but not UTP or ADP, also induced ROS formation. The P2X7 antagonist, A-438079, impaired ATP-induced ROS formation. The ROS scavenger, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, and the ROS inhibitor, diphenyleneiodonium, also impaired P2X7-induced ROS formation, but use of enzyme-specific ROS inhibitors failed to identify the intracellular source of P2X7-induced ROS formation. P2X7-induced ROS formation was impaired partly by physiological concentrations of Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) and almost completely in cells in N-methyl-D-glucamine chloride medium. The p38 MAPK inhibitors SB202190 and SB203580, and the caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK, but not N-acetyl-L-cysteine, impaired P2X7-induced MEL cell apoptosis. ATP also stimulated p38 MAPK and caspase activation, both of which could be impaired by A-438079. In conclusion, these findings indicate that P2X7 activation induces ROS formation in MEL cells and that this process may be involved in events downstream of P2X7 activation, other than apoptosis, in erythroid cells.

Abstract
In hair cells of the inner ear, phosphatidylserine (PS), detected with fluorescent annexin V labeling, was rapidly exposed on the external leaflet of apical plasma membranes upon dissection of the organ of Corti. PS externalization was unchanged by caspase inhibition, suggesting that externalization did not portend apoptosis or necrosis. Consistent with that conclusion, mitochondrial membrane potential and hair-cell nuclear structure remained normal during externalization. PS externalization was triggered by forskolin, which raises cAMP, and blocked by inhibitors of adenylyl cyclase. Blocking Na(+) influx by inhibiting the mechanoelectrical transduction channels and P2X ATP channels also inhibited external PS externalization. Diminished PS externalization was also seen in cells exposed to LY 294002, which blocks membrane recycling in hair cells by inhibiting phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. These results indicate that PS exposure on the external leaflet, presumably requiring vesicular transport, results from elevation of intracellular cAMP, which can be triggered by Na(+) entry into hair cells.

Abstract
The loss of cell volume or cell shrinkage has been a morphological hallmark of the programmed cell death process known as apoptosis. This isotonic loss of cell volume has recently been term apoptotic volume decrease or AVD to distinguish it from inherent volume regulatory responses that occurs in cells under anisotonic conditions. Recent studies examining the intracellular signaling pathways that result in this unique cellular characteristic have determined that a fundamental movement of ions, particularly monovalent ions, underlie the AVD process and plays an important role on controlling the cell death process. An efflux of intracellular potassium was shown to be a critical aspect of the AVD process, as preventing this ion loss could protect cells from apoptosis. However, potassium plays a complex role as a loss of intracellular potassium has also been shown to be beneficial to the health of the cell. Additionally, the mechanisms that a cell employs to achieve this loss of intracellular potassium vary depending on the cell type and stimulus used to induce apoptosis, suggesting multiple ways exist to accomplish the same goal of AVD. Additionally, sodium and chloride have been shown to play a vital role during cell death in both the signaling and control of AVD in various apoptotic model systems. This review examines the relationship between this morphological change and intracellular monovalent ions during apoptosis.

Abstract
Activation of cation channels causes erythrocyte phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure and cell shrinkage. Human erythrocytes express the P2X(7) receptor, an ATP-gated cation channel. The two most potent P2X(7) agonists, BzATP and ATP, stimulated PS exposure in human erythrocytes. Other nucleotides also induced erythrocyte PS exposure with an order of agonist potency of BzATP>ATP>2MeSATP>ATPgammaS; however neither ADP nor UTP had an effect. ATP induced PS exposure in erythrocytes in a dose-dependent fashion with an EC(50) of approximately 75 microM. BzATP- and ATP-induced erythrocyte PS exposure was impaired by oxidised ATP, as well as in erythrocytes from subjects who had inherited loss-of-function polymorphisms in the P2X(7) receptor. ATP-induced PS exposure in erythrocytes was not significantly altered in the presence of EGTA excluding a role for extracellular Ca(2+). These results show that P2X(7) activation by extracellular ATP can induce PS exposure in erythrocytes.

Abstract
Apoptosis is characterized by the programmed activation of specific biochemical pathways leading to the organized demise of cells. To date, aspects of the intracellular signaling machinery involved in this phenomenon have been extensively dissected and characterized. However, recent studies have elucidated a novel role for changes in the intracellular milieu of the cells as important modulators of the cell death program. Specially, intracellular ionic homeostasis has been reported to be a determinant in both the activation and progression of the apoptotic cascade. Several apoptotic insults trigger specific changes in ionic gradients across the plasma membrane leading to depolarization of the plasma membrane potential (PMP). These changes lead to ionic imbalance early during apoptosis. Several studies have also suggested the activation and/or modulation of specific ionic transport mechanisms including ion channels, transporters and ATPases, as mediators of altered intracellular ionic homeostasis leading to PMP depolarization during apoptosis. However, the role of PMP depolarization and of the changes in ionic homeostasis during the progression of apoptosis are still unclear. This review summarizes the current knowledge regarding the causes and consequences of PMP depolarization during apoptosis. We also review the potential electrogenic ion transport mechanisms associated with this event, including the net influx/efflux of cations and anions. An understanding of these mechamisms could lead to the generation of new therapeutic approaches for a variety of diseases involving apoptosis.

Abstract
Platelet membrane phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure that regulates the production of thrombin represents an important link between platelet activation and the coagulation cascade. Here, we have evaluated the involvement of the Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) in this process in human platelets. PS exposure induced in human platelets by thrombin, TRAP, collagen or TRAP+ collagen was abolished in a Na+ -free medium. Inhibition of the Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) by 5-(N-Ethyl-N-Isopropyl) Amiloride (EIPA) reduced significantly PS exposure, whereas monensin or nigericin, which mimic or cause activation of NHE, respectively, reproduced the agonist effect. These data suggest a role for Na+ influx through NHE activation in the mechanism of PS exposure. This newly identified pathway does not discount a role for Ca2+, whose cytosolic concentration varies together with that of Na+ after agonist stimulation. Ca2+ deprivation from the incubation medium only attenuated PS exposure induced by thrombin, measured from the uptake of FM1-43 (a marker of phospholipid scrambling independent of external Ca2+). Surprisingly, removal of external Ca2+ partially reduced FM1-43 uptake induced by A23187, known as a Ca2+ ionophore. The residual effect can be attributed to an increase in [Na+]i mediated by the ionophore due to a lack of its specificity. Finally, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), previously reported as a target for Ca2+ in the induction of phospholipid scrambling, was involved in PS exposure through a regulation of NHE activity. All these results would indicate that the mechanism that results in PS exposure uses redundant pathways inextricably linked to the physio-pathological requirements of this process.

Abstract
Thymocytes were reported to undergo apoptosis in the presence of extracellular ATP through the activation of the purinergic receptors P2 X 1R, P2 X 7R or both. We investigated the identity of the P2 X R and the signaling pathways involved in ATP-mediated apoptosis. Apoptosis elicited by ATP was prevented by inhibition of P2 X 7R, or in thymocytes bearing a mutated P2 X 7R, and reproduced with a P2 X 7R agonist, but not with a P2 X 1R agonist. Stimulation of thymocytes with either ATP or a P2 X 7R agonist was found to stimulate a late de novo ceramide synthesis and mitochondrial alterations. Inhibition of either processes attenuated apoptosis. Interestingly, stimulation with either ATP or a P2 X 1R agonist induced an early ceramide accumulation and a weak caspases-3/7 activation that did not lead to apoptosis. In conclusion, de novo ceramide generation and mitochondrial alterations, both resulting from P2 X 7R activation, were implicated in ATP-induced thymocyte apoptosis.

Abstract
Although the identification of events that occur during apoptosis is a fundamental goal of apoptotic cell death research, little is know about the precise sequence of changes in total elemental composition during apoptosis. We evaluated total elemental composition (Na, Mg, P, Cl, S, and K) in relation to molecular and morphological features in human U937 cells induced to undergo apoptosis with staurosporine, an intrinsic pathway activator. To evaluate total elemental content we used electron probe X-ray microanalysis to measure simultaneously all elements from single, individual cells. We observed two phases in the changes in elemental composition (mainly Na, Cl and K). The early phase was characterized by a decrease in intracellular K (P<0.001) and Cl (P<0.001) content concomitant with cell shrinkage, and preceded the increase in proteolytic activity associated with the activation of caspase-3. The later phase started with caspase-3 activation, and was characterized by a decrease in the K/Na ratio (P<0.001) as a consequence of a significant decrease in K and increase in Na content. The inversion of intracellular K and Na content was related with the inhibition of Na+/K+ ATPase. This later phase was also characterized by a significant increase (P<0.001) in intracellular Cl with respect to the early phase. In addition, we found a decrease in S content and an increase in the P/S ratio. These distinctive changes coincided with chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation. Together, these findings support the concept that changes in total elemental composition take place in two phases related with molecular and morphological features during staurosporine-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
The effect of ATP on mitochondrial membrane depolarization in rat submandibular glands was investigated. Exposure of the cell suspension to high concentrations of ATP induced a sustained depolarization of mitochondrial membrane. This effect was blocked in the presence of magnesium and reproduced by low concentrations of 2',3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)adenosine 5'-triphosphate (BzATP), suggesting the implication of the P2X(7) purinergic receptor. This point was confirmed by comparison of the response to ATP by wild-type and P2X(7) knock-out (P2X(7)R(-/-)) mice. Mitochondria took up calcium after ATP stimulation but the depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane by ATP was not affected by the removal of calcium from the extracellular medium. It was nearly fully suppressed in the absence of sodium and partially blocked by the mitochondrial Na/Ca exchanger inhibitor 7-chloro-5-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,5-dihydro-4,1-benzothiazepin-2(3H)-one (CGP-37157). Both ATP and monensin increased the uptake of extracellular sodium (as shown by the depolarization of the plasma membrane) but the sodium ionophore did not affect the mitochondrial membrane potential. It is concluded that the activation of P2X(7) receptors depolarizes the mitochondrial membrane. The uptake of extracellular sodium is necessary but not sufficient to induce this response.

Abstract
The P2X7 plasma membrane receptor is an intriguing molecule that is endowed with the ability to kill cells, as well as to activate many responses and even stimulate proliferation. Here, the authors give an overview on the multiplicity and complexity of P2X7-mediated responses, discussing recent information on this receptor. Particular attention has been paid to early and late signs of apoptosis and necrosis linked to activation of the receptor and to the emerging field of P2X7 function in carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Canine erythrocytes are known to undergo a reversible increase in cation permeability when incubated with extracellular ATP. We have examined the expression and function of P2X receptors on human erythrocytes using confocal microscopy and a panel of anti-P2X(1-7) antibodies and have measured monovalent cation fluxes in the presence of various nucleotide agonists. Human erythrocytes expressed P2X7 receptors on all cells examined from eight of eight subjects, as well as P2X2 at a far lower staining intensity in six of eight subjects. ATP stimulated the efflux of 86Rb+ (K+) from human erythrocytes in a dose-dependent fashion with an EC50 of approximately 95 microM. Other nucleotides also induced an efflux of 86Rb+ from erythrocytes with an order of agonist potency of 2'- and 3'-O(4-benzoylbenzoyl) ATP (BzATP) > ATP > 2-methylthio-ATP (2MeSATP) > adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATPgammaS), whereas ADP or UTP had no effect. ATP-induced efflux of 86Rb+ from erythrocytes was inhibited by extracellular Na+ and oxidized ATP, as well as by KN-62, an antagonist specific for the human P2X7 receptor. When erythrocytes were incubated in isotonic KCl medium, the addition of ATP stimulated an 86Rb+ influx approximately equal in magnitude to ATP-stimulated 86Rb+ efflux from the same cells. BzATP also stimulated the influx of 22Na+ into erythrocytes incubated in isotonic NaCl medium. Both ATP-induced efflux and influx of 86Rb+ and 22Na+ were impaired in erythrocytes from subjects who had inherited loss-of-function polymorphisms in the P2X7 receptor. These results suggest that the reversible permeabilization of erythrocytes by extracellular ATP is mediated by the P2X7 receptor.
