Extracellular ADP is known to play many important physiological roles. In this study, we identified the P2Y(13) receptor in a rat mast cell line (RBL-2H3) and explored the functional role of ADP, its endogenous agonist. ADP induced both intracellular calcium mobilization and release of hexosaminidase (Hex). In an assay of intracellular calcium, ADP was 100-fold less potent than and equally efficacious as the P2Y(1) receptor-selective agonist MRS2365. However, ADP was more potent and efficacious than MRS2365 in inducing Hex release and in enhancing antigen-induced Hex release. ADP-induced intracellular calcium mobilization was blocked by phospholipase C inhibitor U73122 and by P2Y(1) receptor-selective antagonist MRS2500, but not by pertussis toxin (PTX), suggesting a mechanism mediated by the G(q)-coupled P2Y(1) receptor, but not P2Y(13) (G(i)-coupled) or P2X receptors. ADP-induced Hex release was blocked by PTX and a selective P2Y(13) receptor antagonist MRS2211, but not by MRS2500 or P2Y(1) receptor-specific siRNA, suggesting a G(i)-coupled P2Y(13) receptor-related mechanism. Measurement of gene expression confirmed high expression of both P2Y(1) and P2Y(13) receptors (in comparison to a previously reported P2Y(14) receptor) in RBL-2H3 cells. Thus, we demonstrated that ADP-mediated intracellular calcium mobilization and Hex release in RBL-2H3 cells are via P2Y(1) and P2Y(13) receptors, respectively. Selective antagonists of the P2Y(13) receptor might be novel therapeutic agents for various allergic conditions.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008407 Mast Cells Granulated cells that are found in almost all tissues, most abundantly in the skin and the gastrointestinal tract. Like the BASOPHILS, mast cells contain large amounts of HISTAMINE and HEPARIN. Unlike basophils, mast cells normally remain in the tissues and do not circulate in the blood. Mast cells, derived from the bone marrow stem cells, are regulated by the STEM CELL FACTOR. Basophils, Tissue,Basophil, Tissue,Cell, Mast,Cells, Mast,Mast Cell,Tissue Basophil,Tissue Basophils
D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes. Coagulation Factor IV,Factor IV,Blood Coagulation Factor IV,Calcium-40,Calcium 40,Factor IV, Coagulation
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D000244 Adenosine Diphosphate Adenosine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate). An adenine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety at the 5'-position. ADP,Adenosine Pyrophosphate,Magnesium ADP,MgADP,Adenosine 5'-Pyrophosphate,5'-Pyrophosphate, Adenosine,ADP, Magnesium,Adenosine 5' Pyrophosphate,Diphosphate, Adenosine,Pyrophosphate, Adenosine
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm. Messenger RNA,Messenger RNA, Polyadenylated,Poly(A) Tail,Poly(A)+ RNA,Poly(A)+ mRNA,RNA, Messenger, Polyadenylated,RNA, Polyadenylated,mRNA,mRNA, Non-Polyadenylated,mRNA, Polyadenylated,Non-Polyadenylated mRNA,Poly(A) RNA,Polyadenylated mRNA,Non Polyadenylated mRNA,Polyadenylated Messenger RNA,Polyadenylated RNA,RNA, Polyadenylated Messenger,mRNA, Non Polyadenylated
D015550 Cell Degranulation The process of losing secretory granules (SECRETORY VESICLES). This occurs, for example, in mast cells, basophils, neutrophils, eosinophils, and platelets when secretory products are released from the granules by EXOCYTOSIS. Degranulation, Cell
