Abstract
Regardless of improved biological insights and therapeutic advances, cancer is consuming multiple lives worldwide. Cancer is a complex disease with diverse cellular, metabolic, and physiological parameters as its hallmarks. This instigates a need to uncover the latest therapeutic targets to advance the treatment of cancer patients. Purines are building blocks of nucleic acids but also function as metabolic intermediates and messengers, as part of a signaling pathway known as purinergic signaling. Purinergic signaling comprises primarily adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and adenosine (ADO), their analogous membrane receptors, and a set of ectonucleotidases, and has both short- and long-term (trophic) effects. Cells release ATP and ADO to modulate cellular function in an autocrine or paracrine manner by activating membrane-localized purinergic receptors (purinoceptors, P1 and P2). P1 receptors are selective for ADO and have four recognized subtypes-A1, A2A, A2B, and A3. Purines and pyrimidines activate P2 receptors, and the P2X subtype is ligand-gated ion channel receptors. P2X has seven subtypes (P2X1-7) and forms homo- and heterotrimers. The P2Y subtype is a G protein-coupled receptor with eight subtypes (P2Y1/2/4/6/11/12/13/14). ATP, its derivatives, and purinoceptors are widely distributed in all cell types for cellular communication, and any imbalance compromises the homeostasis of the cell. Neurotransmission, neuromodulation, and secretion employ fast purinergic signaling, while trophic purinergic signaling regulates cell metabolism, proliferation, differentiation, survival, migration, invasion, and immune response during tumor progression. Thus, purinergic signaling is a prospective therapeutic target in cancer and therapy resistance.

Abstract
P2Y receptors (P2YRs) are a δ group of rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) with many essential functions in physiology and pathology, such as platelet aggregation, immune responses, neuroprotective effects, inflammation, and cellular proliferation. Thus, they are among the most researched therapeutic targets used for the clinical treatment of diseases (e.g., the antithrombotic drug clopidogrel and the dry eye treatment drug diquafosol). GPCRs transmit signals as dimers to increase the diversity of signalling pathways and pharmacological activities. Many studies have frequently confirmed dimerization between P2YRs and other GPCRs due to their functions in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular processes in vivo and in vitro. Recently, some P2YR dimers that dynamically balance physiological functions in the body were shown to be involved in effective signal transduction and exert pathological responses. In this review, we summarize the types, pharmacological changes, and active regulators of P2YR-related dimerization, and delineate new functions and pharmacological activities of P2YR-related dimers, which may be a novel direction to improve the effectiveness of medications.

Abstract
Eicosanoid signaling controls a wide range of biological processes from blood pressure homeostasis to inflammation and resolution thereof to the perception of pain and to cell survival itself. Disruption of normal eicosanoid signaling is implicated in numerous disease states. Eicosanoid signaling is facilitated by G-protein-coupled, eicosanoid-specific receptors and the array of associated G-proteins. This review focuses on the expression, characterization, regulation, and mechanism of action of non-prostanoid, eicosanoid receptors.

Abstract
Macrophages comprise a phenotypically and functionally diverse group of hematopoietic cells. Versatile macrophage subsets engage to ensure maintenance of tissue integrity. To perform tissue stress surveillance, macrophages express many different stress-sensing receptors, including purinergic P2X and P2Y receptors that respond to extracellular nucleotides and their sugar derivatives. Activation of G protein-coupled P2Y receptors can be both pro- and anti-inflammatory. Current examples include the observation that P2Y14 receptor promotes STAT1-mediated inflammation in pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages as well as the demonstration that P2Y11 receptor suppresses the secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and concomitantly promotes the release of soluble TNF receptors from anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages. Here, we review macrophage regulation by P2Y purinergic receptors, both in physiological and disease-associated inflammation. Therapeutic targeting of anti-inflammatory P2Y receptor signaling is desirable to attenuate excessive inflammation in infectious diseases such as COVID-19. Conversely, anti-inflammatory P2Y receptor signaling must be suppressed during cancer therapy to preserve its efficacy.

Lysophosphatidic Acid-Activated Calcium Signaling Is Elevated in Red Cells from Sickle Cell Disease Patients. Cells 2021; 10:456.

Abstract
(1) Background: It is known that sickle cells contain a higher amount of Ca2+ compared to healthy red blood cells (RBCs). The increased Ca2+ is associated with the most severe symptom of sickle cell disease (SCD), the vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC). The Ca2+ entry pathway received the name of Psickle but its molecular identity remains only partly resolved. We aimed to map the involved Ca2+ signaling to provide putative pharmacological targets for treatment. (2) Methods: The main technique applied was Ca2+ imaging of RBCs from healthy donors, SCD patients and a number of transgenic mouse models in comparison to wild-type mice. Life-cell Ca2+ imaging was applied to monitor responses to pharmacological targeting of the elements of signaling cascades. Infection as a trigger of VOC was imitated by stimulation of RBCs with lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). These measurements were complemented with biochemical assays. (3) Results: Ca2+ entry into SCD RBCs in response to LPA stimulation exceeded that of healthy donors. LPA receptor 4 levels were increased in SCD RBCs. Their activation was followed by the activation of Gi protein, which in turn triggered opening of TRPC6 and CaV2.1 channels via a protein kinase Cα and a MAP kinase pathway, respectively. (4) Conclusions: We found a new Ca2+ signaling cascade that is increased in SCD patients and identified new pharmacological targets that might be promising in addressing the most severe symptom of SCD, the VOC.

Abstract
The chapter is focused on the mechanism of action of metabotropic P2Y nucleotide receptors: P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y12, P2Y14 and the ionotropic P2X7 receptor in glioma C6 cells. P2Y1 and P2Y12 both respond to ADP, but while P2Y1 links to PLC and elevates cytosolic Ca2+ concentration, P2Y12 negatively couples to adenylate cyclase, maintaining cAMP at low level. In glioma C6, these two P2Y receptors modulate activities of ERK1/2 and PI3K/Akt signaling and the effects depend on physiological conditions of the cells. During prolonged serum deprivation, cell growth is arrested, the expression of the P2Y1 receptor strongly decreases and P2Y12 becomes a major player responsible for ADP-evoked signal transduction. The P2Y12 receptor activates ERK1/2 kinase phosphorylation (a known cell proliferation regulator) and stimulates Akt activity, contributing to glioma invasiveness. In contrast, P2Y1 has an inhibitory effect on Akt pathway signaling. Furthermore, the P2X7 receptor, often responsible for apoptotic fate, is not involved in Ca2+elevation in C6 cells. The shift in nucleotide receptor expression from P2Y1 to P2Y12 during serum withdrawal, the cross talk between both receptors and the lack of P2X7 activity shows the precise self-regulating mechanism, enhancing survival and preserving the neoplastic features of C6 cells.

Abstract
Microglial function is highly dependent on cell motility, with baseline motility required for homeostatic surveillance activity and directed motility to migrate towards a source of injury. Experimental evidence suggests impaired microglial motility in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and therefore we have investigated whether the expression of proteins associated with motility is altered in AD and affected by the Aβ immunotherapy using post-mortem brain tissue of 32 controls, 44 AD cases, and 16 AD cases from our unique group of patients immunised against Aβ42 (iAD). Sections of brain were immunolabelled and quantified for (i) the motility-related microglial proteins Iba1, cofilin 1 (CFL1), coronin-1a (CORO1A) and P2RY12, and (ii) pan-Aβ, Aβ42 and phosphorylated tau (ptau). The neuroinflammatory environment was characterised using Meso Scale Discovery multiplex assays. The expression of all four motility-related proteins was unmodified in AD compared with controls, whereas Iba1 and P2RY12, the homeostatic markers, were increased in the iAD group compared with AD. Iba1 and P2RY12 showed significant positive correlations with Aβ in controls but not in the AD or iAD groups. Pro- and anti-inflammatory proteins were increased in AD, whereas immunotherapy appears to result in a slightly less pro-inflammatory environment. Our findings suggest that as Aβ appears during the ageing process, the homeostatic Iba1 and P2RY12 –positive microglia respond to Aβ, but this response is absent in AD. Aβ-immunisation promoted increased Iba1 and P2RY12 expression, likely reflecting increased baseline microglial motility but without restoring the profile observed in controls.

ADP secreted by dying melanoma cells mediates chemotaxis and chemokine secretion of macrophages via the purinergic receptor P2Y12. Cell Death Dis 2019; 10:760.

Abstract
Melanoma immunotherapy is still not satisfactory due to immunosuppressive cell populations within the tumor stroma. Targeting tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) can help to restore an anti-tumor immunity. Previously, we could show that classical TAM markers expressed in vivo need a 7 day M-CSF/dexamethasone/IL-4 (MDI) stimulation for their induction in peripheral blood monocytes (pBM) in vitro. To identify possible novel therapeutic targets on TAM, gene expression analysis of MDI-treated pBM was performed. This identified up-regulation of the purinergic G-protein coupled receptor P2Y12, the therapeutic target of the clinically approved anti-thrombotic drugs cangrelor, clopidogrel, ticagrelor, and prasugrel. We generated a peptide antibody and validated its specificity using transgenic P2Y12+ U937 cells. With the help of this antibody, P2Y12 expression was confirmed on CD68+ CD163+ TAM of melanoma in situ. Functional analysis revealed that treatment of transgenic P2Y12+ U937 cells with the receptor agonist 2-MeSADP induced ERK1/2 and Akt phosphorylation and increased the secretion of the chemokines CXCL2, CXCL7, and CXCL8. These effects could be abolished with the P2Y12 antagonist PSB0739 or with Akt and ERK inhibitors. In addition, P2Y12+ macrophages migrated towards the ADP-rich culture medium of puromycin-treated dying B16F1 melanoma cells. Cangrelor treatment blocked migration. Taken together, our results indicate that P2Y12 is an important chemotaxis receptor, which triggers migration of macrophages towards nucleotide-rich, necrotic tumor areas, and modulates the inflammatory environment upon ADP binding.

Abstract
Ras-homologous (Rho)A/Rho-kinase pathway plays an essential role in many cellular functions, including contraction, motility, proliferation, and apoptosis, inflammation, and its excessive activity induces oxidative stress and promotes the development of cardiovascular diseases. Given its role in many physiological and pathological functions, targeting can result in adverse effects and limit its use for therapy. In this review, we have summarized the role of RhoGTPases with an emphasis on RhoA in vascular disease and its impact on endothelial, smooth muscle, and heart and lung fibroblasts. It is clear from the various studies that understanding the regulation of RhoGTPases and their regulators in physiology and pathological conditions is required for effective targeting of Rho.

Abstract
Objective The dorsal horn P2Y13 receptor is involved in the development of pain behavior induced by peripheral nerve injury. It is unclear whether the expression of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 at the spinal dorsal horn are influenced after the activation of P2Y13 receptor in rats with diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP). Methods A rat model of type 1 DNP was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ). We examined the expression of P2Y13 receptor, Iba-1, IL-1β, IL-6, JAK2, STAT3, pTyr1336, and pTyr1472 NR2B in rat spinal dorsal horn. Results Compared with normal rats, STZ-diabetic rats displayed obvious mechanical allodynia and the increased expression of P2Y13 receptor, Iba-1, IL-1β, and IL-6 in the dorsal spinal cord that was continued for 6 weeks in DNP rats. The data obtained indicated that, in DNP rats, administration of MRS2211 significantly attenuated mechanical allodynia. Compared with DNP rats, after MRS2211 treatment, expression of the P2Y13 receptor, Iba-1, IL-1β, and IL-6 were reduced 4 weeks after the STZ injection. However, MRS2211 treatment did not attenuate the expression of the P2Y13 receptor, Iba-1, IL-1β, and IL-6 at 6 weeks after the STZ injection. MRS2211 suppressed JAK2 and STAT3 expression in the early stage, but not in the later stage. Moreover, pTyr1336 NR2B was significantly decreased, whereas pTyr1472 NR2B was unaffected in the dorsal spinal cord of MRS2211-treated DNP rats. Conclusion Intrathecal MRS2211 produces an anti-nociceptive effect in early-stage DNP. A possible mechanism involved in MRS2211-induced analgesia is that blocking the P2Y13 receptor downregulates levels of IL-1β and IL-6, which subsequently inhibit the activation of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway. Furthermore, blocking the activation of the P2Y13 receptor can decrease NR2B-containing NMDAR phosphorylation in dorsal spinal cord neurons, thereby attenuating central sensitization in STZ-induced DNP rats.

Abstract
Objective P2 receptors have been implicated in the release of neurotransmitter and pro-inflammatory cytokines due to their response to neuroexcitatory substances in the microglia. Dorsal horn P2Y12 and P2Y13 receptors are involved in the development of pain behavior induced by peripheral nerve injury. However, it is not known whether P2Y12 and P2Y13 receptors activation is associated with the expression and the release of interleukin-1B (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in cultured dorsal spinal cord microglia. For this reason, we examined the effects of ADPβs (ADP analog) on the expression and the release of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. Methods and results In this study, we observed the effect of P2Y receptor agonist ADPβs on the expression and release of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α by using real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ADPβs induced the increased expression of Iba-1, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α at the level of messenger RNA (mRNA). ADPβs-evoked increase in Iba-1, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α mRNA expression was inhibited only partially by P2Y12 receptor antagonist MRS2395 or P2Y13 receptor antagonist MRS2211, respectively. Similarly, ADPβs-evoked release of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α was inhibited only partially by MRS2395 or MRS2211. Furthermore, ADPβs-evoked increased expression of Iba-1, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α mRNA, and release of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were nearly all blocked after co-administration of MRS2395 plus MRS2179. Further evidence indicated that P2Y12 and P2Y13 receptor-evoked increased gene expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were inhibited by Y-27632 (ROCK inhibitor), SB203580 (P38MAPK inhibitor) and PDTC (NF-κb inhibitor), respectively. Subsequently, P2Y12 and P2Y13 receptor-evoked release of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α, were also inhibited by Y-27632, SB203580 and PDTC, respectively. Conclusion These observations suggest that P2Y12 and P2Y13 receptor-evoked gene expression and release of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α are associated with ROCK/P38MAPK/NF-κb signaling pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE P2Y12 is a well-recognized receptor expressed on platelets and the target of thienopyridine-type antiplatelet drugs. However, recent evidence suggests that P2Y12 expressed in vessel wall plays a role in atherogenesis, but the mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, we examined the molecular mechanisms of how vessel wall P2Y12 mediates vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) migration and promotes the progression of atherosclerosis. APPROACH AND RESULTS Using a high-fat diet-fed apolipoprotein E-deficient mice model, we found that the expression of P2Y12 in VSMCs increased in a time-dependent manner and had a linear relationship with the plaque area. Moreover, administration of P2Y12 receptor antagonist for 12 weeks caused significant reduction in atheroma and decreased the abundance of VSMCs in plaque. In cultured VSMCs, we found that activation of P2Y12 receptor inhibited cAMP/protein kinase A signaling pathway, which induced cofilin dephosphorylation and filamentous actin disassembly, thereby enhancing VSMCs motility and migration. In addition, the number of P2Y12-positive VSMCs was decreased in the carotid artery plaque from patients receiving clopidogrel. CONCLUSIONS Vessel wall P2Y12 receptor, which promotes VSMCs migration through cofilin dephosphorylation, plays a critical role in the development of atherosclerotic lesion and may be used as a therapeutic target for atherosclerosis.

Inverse agonism at the P2Y12 receptor and ENT1 transporter blockade contribute to platelet inhibition by ticagrelor. Blood 2016; 128:2717-2728.

Abstract
Ticagrelor is a potent antagonist of the P2Y12 receptor (P2Y12R) and consequently an inhibitor of platelet activity effective in the treatment of atherothrombosis. Here, we sought to further characterize its molecular mechanism of action. Initial studies showed that ticagrelor promoted a greater inhibition of adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP)-induced Ca2+ release in washed platelets vs other P2Y12R antagonists. This additional effect of ticagrelor beyond P2Y12R antagonism was in part as a consequence of ticagrelor inhibiting the equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (ENT1) on platelets, leading to accumulation of extracellular adenosine and activation of Gs-coupled adenosine A2A receptors. This contributed to an increase in basal cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein phosphorylation (VASP-P). In addition, ticagrelor increased platelet cAMP and VASP-P in the absence of ADP in an adenosine receptor-independent manner. We hypothesized that this increase originated from a direct effect on basal agonist-independent P2Y12R signaling, and this was validated in 1321N1 cells stably transfected with human P2Y12R. In these cells, ticagrelor blocked the constitutive agonist-independent activity of the P2Y12R, limiting basal Gi-coupled signaling and thereby increasing cAMP levels. These data suggest that ticagrelor has the pharmacological profile of an inverse agonist. Based on our results showing insurmountable inhibition of ADP-induced Ca2+ release and forskolin-induced cAMP, the mode of antagonism of ticagrelor also appears noncompetitive, at least functionally. In summary, our studies describe 2 novel modes of action of ticagrelor, inhibition of platelet ENT1 and inverse agonism at the P2Y12R that contribute to its effective inhibition of platelet activation.

Abstract
The path to the discovery of the actoclampins began with efforts to define profilin's role in actin-based pathogen and endosome rocketing. That research identified a set of FPPPP-containing cargo proteins and FPPPP-binding proteins that are consistently stationed within the polymerization zone during episodes of active motility. The very same biophysical clues that forced us to abandon Brownian Ratchet models guided us to the Actoclampin Hypothesis, which asserts that every propulsive filament possesses a (+)-end-tracking motor that generates the forces cells need to crawl. Each actoclampin motor is a multi-arm oligomeric complex, employing one arm to recruit/deliver Profilin•Actin•ATP to a growth-site located at the (+)-end of the lagging subfilament, while a second arm maintains an affinity-modulated binding interaction with the extreme (+)-end of the other subfilament. The alternating actions of these arms define a true molecular motor, the processivity of which explains why propelling filaments maintain full possession of their cargo. The Actoclampin Hypothesis also suggests how the energetics of tracker interactions with the (+)-end determines whether a given actoclampin is a passive (low force-producing) or active (high force-producing) motor, the latter requiring the Gibbs free energy of ATP hydrolysis. Another aim of this review is to acknowledge an earlier notional model that emerged from efforts to comprehend profilin's pivotal role(s) in actin-based cell motility.

Abstract
Recent studies have indicated an important role of ATP receptors in spinal microglia, such as P2Y12 or P2Y13, in the development of chronic pain. However, intracellular signaling cascade of these receptors have not been clearly elucidated. We found that intrathecal injection of 2-(methylthio)adenosine 5'-diphosphate (2Me-SADP) induced mechanical hypersensitivity and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation in the spinal cord. Intrathecal administration of P2Y12/P2Y13 antagonists and Rho-associated coiled-coil-containing protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor H1152 suppressed not only p38 MAPK phosphorylation, but also mechanical hypersensitivity induced by 2Me-SADP. In the rat peripheral nerve injury model, intrathecal administration of antagonists for the P2Y12/P2Y13 receptor suppressed activation of p38 MAPK in the spinal cord. In addition, subarachnoidal injection of H1152 also attenuated nerve injury-induced spinal p38 MAPK phosphorylation and neuropathic pain behavior, suggesting an essential role of ROCK in nerve injury-induced p38 MAPK activation. We also found that the antagonists of the P2Y12/P2Y13 receptor and H1152 had inhibitory effects on the morphological changes of microglia such as retraction of processes in both 2Me-SADP and nerve injured rats. In contrast these treatments had no effect on the number of Iba1-positive cells in the nerve injury model. Collectively, our results have demonstrated roles of ROCK in the spinal microglia that is involved in p38 MAPK activation and the morphological changes. Inhibition of ROCK signaling may offer a novel target for the development of a neuropathic pain treatment.

Abstract
Inflammatory conditions are associated with the extracellular release of nucleotides, particularly ATP. In the extracellular compartment, ATP predominantly functions as a signalling molecule through the activation of purinergic P2 receptors. Metabotropic P2Y receptors are G-protein-coupled, whereas ionotropic P2X receptors are ATP-gated ion channels. Here we discuss how signalling events through P2 receptors alter the outcomes of inflammatory or infectious diseases. Recent studies implicate a role for P2X/P2Y signalling in mounting appropriate inflammatory responses critical for host defence against invading pathogens or tumours. Conversely, P2X/P2Y signalling can promote chronic inflammation during ischaemia and reperfusion injury, inflammatory bowel disease or acute and chronic diseases of the lungs. Although nucleotide signalling has been used clinically in patients before, research indicates an expanding field of opportunities for specifically targeting individual P2 receptors for the treatment of inflammatory or infectious diseases.

Abstract
P2Y receptors for extracellular nucleotides are coupled to activation of a variety of G proteins and stimulate diverse intracellular signaling pathways that regulate functions of cell types that comprise the central nervous system (CNS). There are 8 different subtypes of P2Y receptor expressed in cells of the CNS that are activated by a select group of nucleotide agonists. Here, the agonist selectivity of these 8 P2Y receptor subtypes is reviewed with an emphasis on synthetic agonists with high potency and resistance to degradation by extracellular nucleotidases that have potential applications as therapeutic agents. In addition, the recent identification of a wide variety of subtype-selective antagonists is discussed, since these compounds are critical for discerning cellular responses mediated by activation of individual P2Y receptor subtypes. The functional expression of P2Y receptor subtypes in cells that comprise the CNS is also reviewed and the role of each subtype in the regulation of physiological and pathophysiological responses is considered. Other topics include the role of P2Y receptors in the regulation of blood-brain barrier integrity and potential interactions between different P2Y receptor subtypes that likely impact tissue responses to extracellular nucleotides in the CNS. Overall, current research suggests that P2Y receptors in the CNS regulate repair mechanisms that are triggered by tissue damage, inflammation and disease and thus P2Y receptors represent promising targets for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
The chapter is focused on the mechanism of action of metabotropic P2Y nucleotide receptors: P2Y(1), P2Y(2), P2Y(12), P2Y(14) and the ionotropic P2X(7) receptor in glioma C6 cells. P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) both respond to ADP, but while P2Y(1) links to PLC and elevates cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration, P2Y(12) negatively couples to adenylate cyclase, maintaining cAMP at low level. In glioma C6, these two P2Y receptors modulate activities of ERK1/2 and PI3K/Akt signaling and the effects depend on physiological conditions of the cells. During prolonged serum deprivation, cell growth is arrested, the expression of the P2Y(1) receptor strongly decreases and P2Y(12) becomes a major player responsible for ADP-evoked signal transduction. The P2Y(12) receptor activates ERK1/2 kinase phosphorylation (a known cell proliferation regulator) and stimulates Akt activity, contributing to glioma invasiveness. In contrast, P2Y(1) has an inhibitory effect on Akt pathway signaling. Furthermore, the P2X(7) receptor, often responsible for apoptotic fate, is not involved in Ca(2+)elevation in C6 cells. The shift in nucleotide receptor expression from P2Y(1) to P2Y(12) during serum withdrawal, the cross talk between both receptors and the lack of P2X(7) activity shows the precise self-regulating mechanism, enhancing survival and preserving the neoplastic features of C6 cells.

Abstract
P2Y receptors are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that are activated by adenine and uridine nucleotides and nucleotide sugars. There are eight subtypes of P2Y receptors (P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y4, P2Y6, P2Y11, P2Y12, P2Y13, and P2Y14), which activate intracellular signaling cascades to regulate a variety of cellular processes, including proliferation, differentiation, phagocytosis, secretion, nociception, cell adhesion, and cell migration. These signaling cascades operate mainly by the sequential activation or deactivation of heterotrimeric and monomeric G proteins, phospholipases, adenylyl and guanylyl cyclases, protein kinases, and phosphodiesterases. In addition, there are numerous ion channels, cell adhesion molecules, and receptor tyrosine kinases that are modulated by P2Y receptors and operate to transmit an extracellular signal to an intracellular response.

Abstract
In the central nervous system, the formation of the myelin sheath and the differentiation of the myelinating cells, namely oligodendrocytes, are regulated by complex signaling networks that involve purinergic receptors and the extracellular matrix. However, the exact nature of the molecular interactions underlying these networks still needs to be defined. In this respect, the data presented here reveal a signaling mechanism that is characterized by an interaction between the purinergic P2Y(12) receptor and the matricellular extracellular matrix protein autotaxin (ATX), also known as ENPP2, phosphodiesterase-Iα/ATX, or lysoPLD. ATX has been previously described by us to mediate intermediate states of oligodendrocyte adhesion and to enable changes in oligodendrocyte morphology that are thought to be crucial for the formation of a fully functional myelin sheath. This functional property of ATX is mediated by ATX's modulator of oligodendrocyte remodeling and focal adhesion organization (MORFO) domain. Here, we show that the expression of the P2Y(12) receptor is necessary for ATX's MORFO domain to exert its effects on differentiating oligodendrocytes. In addition, our data demonstrate that exogenous expression of the P2Y(12) receptor can render cells responsive to the known effects of ATX's MORFO domain, and they identify Rac1 as an intracellular factor mediating the effect of ATX-MORFO-P2Y(12) signaling on the assembly of focal adhesions. Our data further support the idea that a physical interaction between ATX and the P2Y(12) receptor provides the basis for an ATX-MORFO-P2Y(12) signaling axis that is crucial for mediating cellular states of intermediate adhesion and morphological/structural plasticity.

Abstract
The contribution of P2Y(12,13) receptors to astroglial proliferation was investigated by testing the effects of two agonists with high affinity for these receptors, adenosine 5'-O-(2-thio)-diphosphate (ADPβS) and 2-methylthioadenosine-5'-diphosphate (2-MeSADP), in the incorporation of [(3)H]-thymidine. The effect of ATP, an endogenous inducer of astroglial proliferation, was also investigated. ADPβS and ATP (0.01-1 mM) increased astroglial proliferation up to 282%, an effect inhibited by the P2Y(1) receptor antagonist MRS 2179 (30 μM). The P2Y(12) receptor antagonists MRS 2395 (10 μM) and AR-C 66096 (10 μM) also reduced ADPβS proliferative effect, whereas the effect of ATP was attenuated by the A(2A) and A(2B) receptor antagonists SCH 58261 (30 nM) and MRS 1706 (10 nM), respectively. Studies of the signalling pathway activated showed that ADPβS effect was attenuated by pertussis toxin and by inhibition of phopholipase C (PLC), protein kinase C (PKC) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 (ERK1/2). The effect of ATP was also attenuated by inhibition of protein kinase A (PKA). The agonist 2-MeSADP (0.001-10 μM) had no effect in astroglial proliferation, but at higher concentrations (0.1-1 mM) it inhibited up to 63%, by mechanisms independent of P2Y(1,12,13) receptors activation. It was metabolised into 2-methylthioadenosine (2-MeSADO), the metabolite responsible for inhibition of astroglial proliferation. The effect of 2-MeSADO (0.1 mM) was attenuated by the A(3) receptors antagonist MRS 1523 (10 μM) and by the inhibitor of nucleoside transporters uridine (0.3 mM). 2-MeSADO did not induce apoptosis but increased lactate dehydrogenase release, an indicator of necrotic cell death. Astroglial proliferation induced by ADPβS was mediated by P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors, leading to activation of PLC-PKC-ERK1/2 signalling pathway. The ATP proliferative effect was also mediated by PKA, supporting the contribution of the A(2) receptors. 2-MeSADP inhibition of astroglial proliferation depended on its conversion into 2-MeSADO, which activated A(3) receptors, blocked [(3)H]-thymidine uptake by astrocytes and led to cell death.

Abstract
Antiplatelet drugs are important components in the management of atherothrombotic vascular disease. However, several limitations restrict the safety and efficacy of current antiplatelet therapy in clinical practice. Interpatient variability and resistance to aspirin and/or clopidogrel has spurred efforts for the development of novel agents. Indeed, several antiplatelet drugs are at various stages of evaluation; those at advanced stage of development are the focus of this review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The P2Y(12) receptor plays a crucial role in platelet aggregation and is the target of platelet aggregation inhibitors, including the thienopyridine compound prasugrel. OBJECTIVE The present study analyzed the effects of R-138727 (2-[1-[2-cyclopropyl-1-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-oxoethyl]-4-mercapto-3-piperidinylidene]acetic acid), the active metabolite of prasugrel, on recombinant wild-type and mutant human P2Y(12) receptors in order to identify the molecular site of action of R-138727. METHODS The function of wild-type and mutant P2Y(12) receptors stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells was assessed by measuring the 2-methylthio-ADP-mediated inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cellular cAMP production. RESULTS In cells expressing wild-type receptors, R-138727 potently inhibited receptor function with a half-maximal concentration below 1 microm. The mode of action was irreversible. The same effect of R-138727 was observed in cells expressing Cys17Ala/Cys270Ala constructs. In contrast, in cells expressing either a Cys97Ala construct or a Cys175Ala construct, R-138727 failed to inhibit the response to the agonist. When cells expressing wild-type receptors were pretreated with the P2 receptor antagonists ATP or suramin, no effect of R-138727 was observed. Similar experiments with N-acetylcysteine 10 microm showed no interference of N-acetylcysteine with R-138727. CONCLUSIONS The experiments demonstrate a potent and irreversible action of R-138727 at the recombinant human P2Y(12) receptor. The data suggest that R-138727 interacts with cysteine 97 (upper portion of the predicted third transmembrane region) and cysteine 175 (second extracellular loop) of the receptor, which are likely to form a disulfide bridge in native receptors. Moreover, the data also suggest that this site of action of R-138727 is close to the ligand-binding site of the receptor.

Abstract
We previously reported that extracellular ATP induces membrane ruffling and chemotaxis of microglia and suggested that their induction is mediated by the Gi/o-protein coupled P2Y(12) receptor (P2Y(12)R). Here we report discovering that the P2X(4) receptor (P2X(4)R) is also involved in ATP-induced microglial chemotaxis. To understand the intracellular signaling pathway downstream of P2Y(12)R that underlies microglial chemotaxis, we examined the effect of two phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors, wortmannin, and LY294002, on chemotaxis in a Dunn chemotaxis chamber. The PI3K inhibitors significantly suppressed chemotaxis without affecting ATP-induced membrane ruffling. ATP stimulation increased Akt phosphorylation in the microglia, and the increase was reduced by the PI3K inhibitors and a P2Y(12)R antagonist. These results indicate that P2Y(12)R-mediated activation of the PI3K pathway is required for microglial chemotaxis in response to ATP. We also found that the Akt phosphorylation was reduced when extracellular calcium was chelated, suggesting that ionotropic P2X receptors are involved in microglial chemotaxis by affecting the PI3K pathway. We therefore tested the effect of various P2X(4)R antagonists on the chemotaxis, and the results showed that pharmacological blockade of P2X(4)R significantly inhibited it. Knockdown of the P2X(4) receptor in microglia by RNA interference through the lentivirus vector system also suppressed the microglial chemotaxis. These results indicate that P2X(4)R as well as P2Y(12)R is involved in ATP-induced microglial chemotaxis.

Abstract
ADP is the endogenous agonist for both P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors, which are important therapeutic targets. It was previously demonstrated that ADP and a synthetic agonist, 2-methylthioadenosine 5'-diphosphate (2MeSADP), can induce apoptosis by activating the human P2Y(1) receptor heterologously expressed in astrocytoma cells. However, it was not known whether the P2Y(12) receptor behaved similarly. We demonstrated here that, unlike with the G(q)-coupled P2Y(1) receptor, activation of the G(i)-coupled P2Y(12) receptor does not induce apoptosis. Furthermore, activation of the P2Y(12) receptor by either ADP or 2MeSADP significantly attenuates the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha)-induced apoptosis in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells. This protective effect was blocked by the P2Y(12) receptor antagonist 2-methylthioAMP and by inhibitors of phospholipase C (U73122) and protein kinase C (chelerythrin), but not by the P2Y(1) receptor antagonist MRS2179. Toward a greater mechanistic understanding, we showed that hP2Y(12) receptor activation by 10nM 2MeSADP, activates Erk1/2, Akt, and JNK by phosphorylation. However, at a lower protective concentration of 100pM 2MeSADP, activation of the hP2Y(12) receptor involves only phosphorylated Erk1/2, but not Akt or JNK. This activation is hypothesized as the major mechanism for the protective effect induced by P2Y(12) receptor activation. Apyrase did not affect the ability of TNFalpha to induce apoptosis in hP2Y(12)-1321N1 cells, suggesting that the endogenous nucleotides are not involved. These results may have important implications for understanding the signaling cascades that follow activation of P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors and their opposing effects on cell death pathways.

Abstract
There have been many advances in our knowledge about different aspects of P2Y receptor signaling since the last review published by our International Union of Pharmacology subcommittee. More receptor subtypes have been cloned and characterized and most orphan receptors de-orphanized, so that it is now possible to provide a basis for a future subdivision of P2Y receptor subtypes. More is known about the functional elements of the P2Y receptor molecules and the signaling pathways involved, including interactions with ion channels. There have been substantial developments in the design of selective agonists and antagonists to some of the P2Y receptor subtypes. There are new findings about the mechanisms underlying nucleotide release and ectoenzymatic nucleotide breakdown. Interactions between P2Y receptors and receptors to other signaling molecules have been explored as well as P2Y-mediated control of gene transcription. The distribution and roles of P2Y receptor subtypes in many different cell types are better understood and P2Y receptor-related compounds are being explored for therapeutic purposes. These and other advances are discussed in the present review.

Abstract
Previously it was shown that stimulation of the P2Y12 receptor activates PKB signalling in C6 glioma cells [K. Van Kolen and H. Slegers, J. Neurochem. 89, 442.]. In the present study, the mechanisms involved in this response were further elucidated. In cells transfected with the Gbetagamma-scavenger beta-ARK1/GRK2 or Rap1GAPII, stimulation with 2MeSADP failed to enhance PKB phosphorylation demonstrating that the signalling proceeds through Gbetagamma-subunits and Rap1. Moreover, Rap1-GTP pull-down assays revealed that P2Y12 receptor stimulation induced a rapid activation of Rap1. Treatment of cells with the Ca2+ chelator BAPTA-AM and inhibition of Src and PLD2 with PP2 or 1-butanol, respectively, abrogated P2Y12 receptor-mediated activation of Rap1 and PKB. In addition inhibition of PKCzeta decreased basal and 2MeSADP-stimulated phosphorylation of PKB indicating a role for this PKC isoform in PKB signalling. Although the increased PKB phosphorylation was abolished in the presence of the IGF-I receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor AG 1024, 2MeSADP did not significantly increase receptor phosphorylation. Nevertheless, phosphorylation of a 120 kDa IGF-I receptor-associated protein was observed. The latter protein was identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS as the proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) that co-operates with Src in a PLD2-dependent manner. Consistent with the signalling towards Rap1 and PKB, activation of Pyk2 was abrogated by Ca2+ chelation, inhibition of PLD2 and IGF-I receptor tyrosine kinase activity. In conclusion, the data reveal a novel type of cross-talk between P2Y12 and IGF-I receptors that proceeds through Gbetagamma-, Ca2+-and PLD2-dependent activation of the Pyk2/Src pathway resulting in GTP-loading of Rap1 required for an increased PKB phosphorylation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelets (PLTs) contain purinergic receptors for ATP (P2X1) and ADP (P2Y1 and P2Y12) that rapidly desensitize upon stimulation with these nucleotides. In vivo, this is antagonized by ectonucleotidases on the surface of endothelial cells and white blood cells (WBCs). The receptor desensitization of ATP- and ADP-induced responses of PLTs stored in plasma without WBCs was investigated. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS ATP- and ADP-induced PLT shape change (shear-induced) aggregation and Ca2+ signaling were measured in the presence or absence of plasma. Degradation of nucleotides in plasma was quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS Washed PLTs became refractory for ATP and ADP in shape change, aggregation, and Ca2+ responses during a 90-minute incubation at 37 degrees C. The PLT responses mediated by P2X1, P2Y1, and P2Y12 receptors gradually reduced or disappeared. When plasma was present, however, the PLTs persistently showed high responses to ATP and ADP. Heat treatment of plasma abolished this effect. Also under conditions of flow and high shear, PLTs in plasma kept high P2X1 activity, mediating aggregate formation. In isolated plasma, not containing WBCs, nucleotides were degraded in the order of ADP/UDP>ATP/UTP. Degradation of ATP was partly inhibited by blocking the ecto-NTPDase CD39, whereas degradation of both ATP and ADP was inhibited by blocking ectopyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase activity. Part of the nucleotide-degrading activities appeared to be membrane-bound. CONCLUSION Ectonucleotidases in plasma preserve the functionality of P2X1 and P2Y receptors. Upon PLT storage, these plasma activities are essential to ensure adequate (shear-dependent) formation of aggregates and thrombi.

Abstract
The role of nucleotides in intracellular energy provision and nucleic acid synthesis has been known for a long time. In the past decade, evidence has been presented that, in addition to these functions, nucleotides are also autocrine and paracrine messenger molecules that initiate and regulate a large number of biological processes. The actions of extracellular nucleotides are mediated by ionotropic P2X and metabotropic P2Y receptors, while hydrolysis by ecto-enzymes modulates the initial signal. An increasing number of studies have been performed to obtain information on the signal transduction pathways activated by nucleotide receptors. The development of specific and stable purinergic receptor agonists and antagonists with therapeutical potential largely contributed to the identification of receptors responsible for nucleotide-activated pathways. This article reviews the signal transduction pathways activated by P2Y receptors, the involved second messenger systems, GTPases and protein kinases, as well as recent findings concerning P2Y receptor signalling in C6 glioma cells. Besides vertical signal transduction, lateral cross-talks with pathways activated by other G protein-coupled receptors and growth factor receptors are discussed.

Abstract
P2 receptors for extracellular nucleotides are divided into two categories: the ion channel receptors (P2X) and the G-protein-coupled receptors (P2Y). For the P2X receptors, signal transduction appears to be relatively simple. Upon activation by extracellular ATP, a channel comprised of P2X receptor subunits opens and allows cations to move across the plasma membrane, resulting in changes in the electrical potential of the cell that, in turn, propagates a signal. This regulated flux of ions across the plasma membrane has important signaling functions, especially in impulse propagation in the nervous system and in muscle contractility. In addition, P2X receptor activation causes the accumulation of calcium ions in the cytoplasm, which is responsible for activating numerous signaling molecules. For the P2Y receptors, signal transduction is more complex. Intracellular signaling cascades are the main routes of communication between G-protein-coupled receptors and regulatory targets within the cell. These signaling cascades operate mainly by the sequential activation or deactivation of heterotrimeric and monomeric G proteins, phospholipases, protein kinases, adenylyl and guanylyl cyclases, and phosphodiesterases that regulate many cellular processes, including proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, metabolism, secretion, and cell migration. In addition, there are numerous ion channels, cell adhesion molecules and receptor tyrosine kinases that are modulated by P2Y receptors and operate to transmit an extracellular signal to an intracellular response. These intracellular signaling pathways and their regulation by P2 receptors are discussed in this review.

Abstract
When nucleotide hydrolysis is prevented, agonists of the P2Y(12) receptor enhance the proliferation of C6 glioma cells by RhoA-dependent, protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway [Claes P, Grobben B, Van Kolen K, Roymans D & Slegers H (2001) Br J Pharmacol134, 402-408; Grobben B, Claes P, Van Kolen K, Roymans D, Fransen P, Sys SU & Slegers H (2001) J Neurochem78, 1325-1338]. In this study, we show that ERK1/2 phosphorylation was not affected by transfection of the cells with the Gbetagamma-subunit-scavenging adrenergic receptor kinase peptide [betaARK1-(495-689)] or with Rap1GAPII, indicating that P2Y(12) receptor stimulation enhances ERK1/2 phosphorylation by G(i)alpha subunit-mediated signaling independently of Rap1 activation. Inhibition of the RhoA downstream effector Rho-associated coiled-coil-containing kinase (ROCK) with Y-27632 did not affect the P2Y(12) receptor-induced increase in ERK1/2 phosphorylation but abrogated the mitogenic response. Involvement of growth factor receptor transactivation in the signaling towards ERK phosphorylation could be ruled out by the lack of an effect of PP2, AG1024, AG1296 or SU1498, inhibitors of Src, insulin-like growth factor receptor, platelet-derived growth factor receptor and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor kinase activity, respectively. Experiments with bisindolylmaleimide I and IX indicated the requirement of PKC activity. Classical and novel PKC isoforms could be excluded by treatment of the cells with Gö6976 and calphostin C, whereas addition of a myristoylated PKCzeta pseudosubstrate inhibitor completely abolished P2Y(12) receptor-induced ERK1/2 activation. Moreover, coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed PKCzeta/Raf1 and PKCzeta/ERK association, indicating the involvement of PKCzeta. From the data presented, we can conclude that the P2Y(12) receptor enhances cell proliferation by a G(i)alpha-dependent, RhoA-dependent PKCzeta/Raf1/MEK/ERK pathway that requires activation of ROCK, which is not involved in ERK1/2 signaling.

Abstract
ADP activates human platelets through two G-protein coupled receptors, P2Y1 and P2Y12, to induce a range of functional responses. Here we have addressed the role and mechanism of P2Y12 in modulating ADP-induced platelet shape change. Although the response depended upon activation of P2Y1, it was potentiated by P2Y12 as the P2Y12-selective antagonists AR-C69931MX and 2MeSAMP partially inhibited shape change in the later phase of the response. This was paralleled by inhibition of pseudopod formation, platelet spheration, actin polymerisation and myosin light chain phosphorylation. P2Y12 is known to couple to activation of PI3 kinase and inhibition of adenylate cyclase, but we showed that neither of these signalling events couples to regulation of shape change by this receptor. However, by assessment of phosphorylation of its major substrate myosin light chain phosphatase, we provide direct evidence for activation of Rho kinase by ADP, and that although P2Y1 is required for activation of Rho kinase, P2Y12 is able to potentiate its activity. We conclude that P2Y12 plays a potentiatory role in ADP-induced shape change through regulation of the Rho kinase pathway, potentiating both myosin phosphorylation and actin polymerisation, and this forms part of an important signalling pathway additional to its well-established Gi-coupled pathways.

Abstract
Membrane-bound P2-receptors mediate the actions of extracellular nucleotides in cell-to-cell signalling. P2X-receptors are ligand-gated ion channels, whereas P2Y-receptors belong to the superfamily of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). So far, the P2Y family is composed out of 8 human subtypes that have been cloned and functionally defined; species orthologues have been found in many vertebrates. P2Y1-, P2Y2-, P2Y4-, P2Y6-, and P2Y11-receptors all couple to stimulation of phospholipase C. The P2Y11-receptor mediates in addition a stimulation of adenylate cyclase. In contrast, activation of the P2Y12-, P2Y13-, and P2Y14-receptors causes an inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. The expression of P2Y1-receptors is widespread. The receptor is involved in blood platelet aggregation, vasodilatation and neuromodulation. It is activated by ADP and ADP analogues including 2-methylthio-ADP (2-MeSADP). 2'-Deoxy-N6-methyladenosine-3',5'-bisphosphate (MRS2179) and 2-chloro-N6-methyl-(N)-methanocarba-2'-deoxyadenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate (MRS2279) are potent and selective antagonists. P2Y2 transcripts are abundantly distributed. One important example for its functional role is the control of chloride ion fluxes in airway epithelia. The P2Y2-receptor is activated by UTP and ATP and blocked by suramin. The P2Y2-agonist diquafosol is used for the treatment of the dry eye disease. P2Y4-receptors are expressed in the placenta and in epithelia. The human P2Y4-receptor has a strong preference for UTP as agonist, whereas the rat P2Y4-receptor is activated about equally by UTP and ATP. The P2Y4-receptor is not blocked by suramin. The P2Y6-receptor has a widespread distribution including heart, blood vessels, and brain. The receptor prefers UDP as agonist and is selectively blocked by 1,2-di-(4-isothiocyanatophenyl)ethane (MRS2567). The P2Y11-receptor may play a role in the differentiation of immunocytes. The human P2Y11-receptor is activated by ATP as naturally occurring agonist and it is blocked by suramin and reactive blue 2 (RB2). The P2Y12-receptor plays a crucial role in platelet aggregation as well as in inhibition of neuronal cells. It is activated by ADP and very potently by 2-methylthio-ADP. Nucleotide antagonists including N6-(2-methylthioethyl)-2-(3,3,3-trifluoropropylthio)-beta,gamma-dichloromethylene-ATP (=cangrelor; AR-C69931MX), the nucleoside analogue AZD6140, as well as active metabolites of the thienopyridine compounds clopidogrel and prasugrel block the receptor. These P2Y12-antagonists are used in pharmacotherapy to inhibit platelet aggregation. The P2Y13-receptor is expressed in immunocytes and neuronal cells and is again activated by ADP and 2-methylthio-ADP. The 2-chloro-5-nitro pyridoxal-phosphate analogue 6-(2'-chloro-5'-nitro-azophenyl)-pyridoxal-alpha5-phosphate (MRS2211) is a selective antagonist. mRNA encoding for the human P2Y14-receptor is found in many tissues. However, a physiological role of the receptor has not yet been established. UDP-glucose and related analogues act as agonists; antagonists are not known. Finally, UDP has been reported to act on receptors for cysteinyl leukotrienes as an additional agonist--indicating a dual agonist specificity of these receptors.

The novel suramin analogue NF864 selectively blocks P2X1 receptors in human platelets with potency in the low nanomolar range. Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol 2005; 372:1-13. [PMID: 16158305 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-005-1085-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2005] [Accepted: 07/14/2005] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
The role of ATP-stimulated P2X1 receptors in human platelets is still unclear. They may act alone or in synergy with other pathways, such as P2Y1 or P2Y12 receptors, to accelerate and enhance calcium mobilisation, shape change and aggregation. To date very few pharmacological means of selectively inhibiting platelet P2X1 receptors have been described, although recent work has shown that suramin is a useful lead compound for the development of high-affinity P2X1 antagonists. We therefore investigated the effects of a series of bivalent and tetravalent suramin analogues on alphabeta meATP (P2X1 receptors)-induced or ADP (P2Y1 receptors)-induced intracellular calcium increases and shape change, as well as on ADP-induced aggregation (P2Y1 & P2Y12 receptors) in human platelets. Changes in intracellular calcium were measured using standard fluorescence techniques, while shape change and aggregation were determined by turbidimetry. The novel tetravalent compound NF864 (8,8',8'',8'''-(carbonylbis(imino-5,1,3-benzenetriyl-bis(carbonylimino)))tetrakis-naphthalene-1,3,5-trisulfonic acid-dodecasodium salt) proved to be the most potent platelet P2X1 antagonist reported to date, blocking alphabeta meATP-induced Ca2+ increases and shape change in a concentration-dependent manner, with a pA2 of 8.17 and 8.49, respectively. The ability to inhibit the platelet P2X1 receptor displayed the following order : NF864 > NF449 > or = NF110 > NF023 = MK-HU1 = suramin. A different antagonistic profile was observed for ADP-induced Ca2+ increases, shape change and aggregation; however, overall four compounds showed sufficient ability to selectively inhibit P2X1 responses, with the order NF110 > NF449 > or = NF864 > or = MK-HU1. Therefore, these compounds should prove useful tools for investigating the functional significance of platelet P2X1 receptors in thrombosis and haemostasis, NF864 being the most promising compound.

Abstract
The platelet surface membrane possesses three P2 receptors activated by extracellular adenosine nucleotides; one member of the ionotropic receptor family (P2X(1)) and two members of the G-protein-coupled receptor family (P2Y(1) and P2Y(12)). P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors have firmly established roles in platelet activation during thrombosis and haemostasis, whereas the importance of the P2X(1) receptor has been more controversial. However, recent studies have demonstrated that P2X(1) receptors can generate significant functional platelet responses alone and in synergy with other receptor pathways. In addition, studies in transgenic animals indicate an important role for P2X(1) receptors in platelet activation, particularly under conditions of shear stress and thus during arterial thrombosis. This review discusses the background behind discovery of P2X(1) receptors in platelets and their precursor cell, the megakaryocyte, and how signalling via these ion channels may participate in platelet activation.
