ATP, an Agonist at the Rat P2Y4 Receptor, Is an Antagonist at the Human P2Y4 Receptor

Charles Kennedy, Ai-Dong Qi, Christopher L. Herold, T. Kendall Harden, and Robert A. Nicholas

Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Great Britain (C.K.); and Department of Pharmacology, University of North Carolina, School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, North Carolina (A.-D.Q., C.L.H., T.K.H., K.H., R.A.N.)

The nucleotide selectivities of the human P2Y4 (hP2Y4) and rat P2Y4 (rP2Y4) receptor stably expressed in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells were determined by measuring increases in intracellular [Ca2+] under conditions that minimized metabolism, bioconversion, and endogenous nucleotide release. In cells expressing the hP2Y4 receptor, UTP, GTP, and ITP all increased intracellular [Ca2+] with a rank order of potency of UTP (0.55) > GTP (6.59) = ITP (7.38), (EC50, µM). ATP, CTP, xanthine 5'-triphosphate (XTP), and diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A), all at 100 µM, were inactive at the hP2Y4 receptor. In cells expressing the rP2Y4 receptor, all seven nucleotides increased intracellular [Ca2+] with similar maximal effects and a rank order of potency of UTP (0.20) > ATP (0.51) > Ap4A (1.24) approx  ITP (1.82) approx  GTP (2.28) > CTP (7.24) > XTP (22.9). Because ATP is inactive at the hP2Y4 receptor, we assessed whether ATP displayed antagonist activity. When coapplied, ATP shifted the concentration-response curve to UTP rightward in a concentration-dependent manner, with no change in the maximal response. A Schild plot derived from these data gave a pA2 value of 6.15 (KB = 708 nM) and a slope near unity. Additionally, CTP and Ap4A (each at 100 µM) inhibited the response to an EC50 concentration of UTP by ~40 and ~50%, respectively, whereas XTP had no effect. The inhibitory effects of ATP, CTP, and Ap4A were reversible on washout. Thus, ATP is a potent agonist at the rP2Y4 receptor but is a competitive antagonist with moderate potency at the hP2Y4 receptor.
