Abstract
The UDP-glucose receptor P2RY14, a rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), was previously described as receptor expressed in A-intercalated cells of the mouse kidney. Additionally, we found P2RY14 is abundantly expressed in mouse renal collecting duct principal cells of the papilla and epithelial cells lining the renal papilla. To better understand its physiological function in kidney, we took advantage of a P2ry14 reporter and gene-deficient (KO) mouse strain. Morphometric studies showed that the receptor function contributes to kidney morphology. KO mice had a broader cortex relative to the total kidney area than wild-type (WT) mice. In contrast, the area of the outer stripe of the outer medulla was larger in WT compared to KO mice. Transcriptome comparison of the papilla region of WT and KO mice revealed differences in the gene expression of extracellular matrix proteins (e.g., decorin, fibulin-1, fibulin-7) and proteins involved in sphingolipid metabolism (e.g., small subunit b of the serine palmitoyltransferase) and other related GPCRs (e.g., GPR171). Using mass spectrometry, changes in the sphingolipid composition (e.g., chain length) were detected in the renal papilla of KO mice. At the functional level, we found that KO mice had a reduced urine volume but an unchanged glomerular filtration rate under normal chow and salt diets. Our study revealed P2ry14 as a functionally important GPCR in collecting duct principal cells and cells lining the renal papilla and the possible involvement of P2ry14 in nephroprotection by regulation of decorin.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal disorders represent one of the main causes of disability worldwide, and their prevalence is predicted to increase in the coming decades. Stem cell therapy may be a promising option for the treatment of some of the musculoskeletal diseases. Although significant progress has been made in musculoskeletal stem cell research, osteoarthritis, the most-common musculoskeletal disorder, still lacks curative treatment. To fine-tune stem-cell-based therapy, it is necessary to focus on the underlying biological mechanisms. Ion channels and the bioelectric signals they generate control the proliferation, differentiation, and migration of musculoskeletal progenitor cells. Calcium- and voltage-activated potassium (KCa) channels are key players in cell physiology in cells of the musculoskeletal system. This review article focused on the big conductance (BK) KCa channels. The regulatory function of BK channels requires interactions with diverse sets of proteins that have different functions in tissue-resident stem cells. In this narrative review article, we discuss the main ion channels of musculoskeletal stem cells, with a focus on calcium-dependent potassium channels, especially on the large conductance BK channel. We review their expression and function in progenitor cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration and highlight gaps in current knowledge on their involvement in musculoskeletal diseases.

Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 114:109507. [PMID: 36462336 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2022.109507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2022] [Revised: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 11/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Acute gouty arthritis (AGA) has been classified as an autoinflammatory disease caused by deposition of monosodium urate crystals (MSU), accompanied by swellingofjoint and severe pain. Limited clinical therapy and highincidence indicate that the development of effective drugs for AGA is an urgent need. Our previous study found that P2Y14 receptor (P2Y14R) was a potential target in anti-gout treatment through regulating pyroptosis of macrophages under exposure of MSU. Based on previous work, we carried out further structure modifications and led to a more effective antagonist HQL6 with IC50 of 3.007 nM. Extensive profiling of HQL6 has demonstrated that its high selectivity, good pharmacokinetic properties, and reliable in vivo anti-gout efficacy. Moreover, P2Y14R has been demonstrated to be the key target of HQL6 since the diminished effects on adenylate cyclase inhibitor-induced acute gouty arthritis in P2Y14R knockout rats. More importantly, results of single point mutant experiments exhibited that HQL6 might interact with Lys277 as favorable residue in the binding pocket of P2Y14R. Therefore, we confirmed that P2Y14R was a promising drug target for AGA, and HQL6 would be an available candidate for further drug development.

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
Mechanosensing and mechanotransduction are vital processes in mechanobiology and play critical roles in regulating cellular behavior and fate. There is increasing evidence that purinergic P2 receptors, members of the purinergic family, play a crucial role in cellular mechanotransduction. Thus, information on the specific mechanism of P2 receptor-mediated mechanotransduction would be valuable. In this review, we focus on purinergic P2 receptor signaling pathways and describe in detail the interaction of P2 receptors with other mechanosensitive molecules, including transient receptor potential channels, integrins, caveolae-associated proteins and hemichannels. In addition, we review the activation of purinergic P2 receptors and the role of various P2 receptors in the regulation of various pathophysiological processes induced by mechanical stimuli.

Abstract
Bone is one of the major tissues that undergoes continuous remodeling throughout life, thus ensuring both organic body growth during development and protection of internal organs as well as repair of trauma during adulthood. Many endogenous substances contribute to bone homeostasis, including purines. Their role has increasingly emerged in recent decades as compounds which, by interacting with specific receptors, can help determine adequate responses of bone cells to physiological or pathological stimuli. Equally, it is recognized that the activity of purines is closely dependent on their interconversion or metabolic degradation ensured by a series of enzymes present at extracellular level as predominantly bound to the cell membrane or, also, as soluble isoforms. While the effects of purines mediated by their receptor interactions have sufficiently, even though not entirely, been characterized in many tissues including bone, those promoted by the extracellular enzymes providing for purine metabolism have not been. In this review, we will try to circumstantiate the presence and the role of these enzymes in bone to define their close relationship with purine activities in maintaining bone homeostasis in normal or pathological conditions.

Purinergic Signaling Mediates PTH and Fluid Flow-Induced Osteoblast Proliferation. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:6674570.

Abstract
Both parathyroid hormone (PTH) and mechanical signals are able to regulate bone growth and regeneration. They also can work synergistically to regulate osteoblast proliferation, but little is known about the mechanisms how PTH and mechanical signals interact with each other during this process. In this study, we investigated responses of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts to PTH and oscillatory fluid flow. We found that osteoblasts are more sensitive to mechanical signals in the presence of PTH according to ERK1/2 phosphorylation, ATP release, CREB phosphorylation, and cell proliferation. PTH may also reduce the osteoblast refractory period after desensitization due to mechanical signals. We further found that the synergistic responses of osteoblasts to fluid flow or ATP with PTH had similar patterns, suggesting that synergy between fluid flow and PTH may be through the ATP pathway. After we inhibited ATP effects using apyrase in osteoblasts, their synergistic responses to mechanical stimulation and PTH were also inhibited. Additionally, knocking down P2Y2 purinergic receptors can significantly attenuate osteoblast synergistic responses to mechanical stimulation and PTH in terms of ERK1/2 phosphorylation, CREB phosphorylation, and cell proliferation. Thus, our results suggest that PTH enhances mechanosensitivity of osteoblasts via a mechanism involving ATP and P2Y2 purinergic receptors.

Abstract
P2Y receptors, including eight subtypes, are G protein-coupled receptors that can be activated by extracellular nucleotides. Nearly all P2Y receptors are expressed in bone cells, suggesting their involvements in bone physiology and pathology. However, their exact roles in bone homeostasis are not entirely clear. Therefore, this mini review summarizes new research developments regarding individual P2Y receptors and their roles in bone biology, particularly detailing those which execute both anabolic and catabolic functions. This dual function has highlighted the conundrum of pharmacologically targeting these P2Y receptors in bone-wasting diseases. Further research in finding more precise targeting strategy, such as promoting anabolic effects via combining with physical exercise, should be prioritized.

Abstract
Ectonucleotidases are key for purinergic signaling. They control the duration of activity of purinergic receptor agonists. At the same time, they produce hydrolysis products as additional ligands of purinergic receptors. Due to the considerable diversity of enzymes, purinergic receptor ligands and purinergic receptors, deciphering the impact of extracellular purinergic receptor control has become a challenge. The first group of enzymes described were the alkaline phosphatases - at the time not as nucleotide-metabolizing but as nonspecific phosphatases. Enzymes now referred to as nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases and ecto-5'-nucleotidase were the first and only nucleotide-specific ectonucleotidases identified. And they were the first group of enzymes related to purinergic signaling. Additional research brought to light a surprising number of ectoenzymes with broad substrate specificity, which can also hydrolyze nucleotides. This short overview traces the development of the field and briefly highlights important results and benefits for therapies of human diseases achieved within nearly a century of investigations.
