A state-of-the-art summary from leading laboratories around the world of our current knowledge of the molecular biology, the physiology, and the pharmacology of the P2 receptors. The authoritative contributions cover the major aspects of these receptors, describing the relationships between physiological and pharmacological effects of ATP and other nucleotides and the various cloned P2 receptors, as well as providing an historical perspective and discussing current issues of nomenclature. They also illuminate how P2 receptor structures contribute to their function, including the physical differences underlying the pharmacological and functional variations among P2 receptor subtypes.

It is well known that ATP acts as a classic neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It is stored in synaptic vesicles, released upon neuronal excitation, and activates both ion channel receptors (P2X) and G protein-coupled receptors (P2Y) on post-synaptic cells. In addition to its role as a neurotransmitter, ATP and other nucleotides are known to be released from injured or ischemic tissue and have been reported to affect inflammatory events in the brain and many other tissues, however, these inflammatory events as well as the subtype(s) of nucleotide receptor(s) influencing these events have not been well defined. This dissertation examines the expression patterns of P2X and P2Y nucleotide receptors in rat primary cultures of cortical neurons (rPCNs), in adult rodent brains, in cerebral ischemia and in collared rabbit carotid arteries. P2Y2R is up-regulated in response to cytokine stimulation in rPCNs in vitro and after collar transplantation around rabbit carotid arteries in vivo. Moreover, in vivo studies in the collared carotid artery model indicate the involvement of P2Y2Rs in the development of intimal hyperplasia. Based on these studies, particular emphasis was placed on delineating the role of the P2Y2 receptor subtype in neuronal inflammation and the P2X-- receptor subtype in neuronal apoptosis in the central nervous system. In the rat primary cultures of cortical neurons, activation of the P2Y2R and P2X--R caused á-secretase-dependent APP processing and caspase8/9/3-dependent apoptosis, respectively. These results suggest the important roles of P2 nucleotide receptors (P2Y2R and P2X--R) and their associated signaling pathways in regulating neuronal inflammation and apoptosis in brain disorders and neurodegeneration.

Extracellular nucleotides signaling through P2 nucleotide receptors expressed throughout the nervous system regulate a variety of neuronal functions. The characterization of nucleotide effects on neuronal differentiation, growth and survival are potentially important targets that may facilitate regeneration and survival of neurons after injury, disease, or age-related loss of function. Work in this thesis tested the hypothesis that extracellular nucleotides, acting through P2 receptor(s), alter neuronal differentiation, growth and survival. I characterized morphological changes that occur with nerve growth factor (NGF) differentiation and corresponding changes in ATP release. Target tissues, such as vascular endothelial and cardiac cells, were identified as sources of ATP release and promoters of differentiation of PC12 cells independent of NGF. The altered expression of P2X and P2Y receptors in differentiated versus non-differentiated PC12 cells, combined with the enhancement of NGF-stimulated differentiation by ATP and UTP led to the identification of P2Y2 receptors as mediating nucleotide-promoted neuronal differentiation and growth in primary cultured neurons and PC12 cells. Such effects occurred via increased NGF sensitivity and enhanced activation of the NGF receptor, TrkA. Endogenous co-localization and co-immunoprecipitation of P2Y2 and TrkA receptors requiring activated Src as a physical intermediate. In vivo treatment with ATP?S treatment enhanced a marker of neuronal growth. P2Y2 receptor activation, independent of NGF/TrkA, also mediated inhibition of neuronal apoptosis by ATP/UTP. In addition to effects on differentiation, P2Y2 inhibition of apoptosis occurred through Src-mediated activation of ERK and Akt. In other experiments I found that undifferentiated, compared to NGF-differentiated, PC12 cells had lower, briefer ATP?S-stimulated norepinephrine release and reuptake; only NGF-differentiated PC12 cells were capable of desensitization to ATP?S. These results identify a role for P2Y2 receptors in neurotrophin-dependent differentiation as well as neurotrophin-independent inhibition of neuronal apoptosis. P2Y2 receptors thus regulate neuronal differentiation, survival, and function in part via interaction with neurotrophin/receptor tyrosine kinase receptors. As such, P2Y2 receptors provide a new target for therapeutic intervention in neuropathological conditions.

This book aims to provide a brief update on the functions of purinergic receptors in various systems, in addition to the signaling pathway activated to mediate these functions. We address the influence of hypoxia by modulating the activity of these receptors under physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Additionally, we describe the mechanisms of induction of pain and inflammation in different systems. Finally, the book discusses some of the main bioinformatics tools currently used to improve or discover new prototypes capable of selectively acting on these receptors with estimated parameters of satisfactory solubility and toxicity for possible commercial implementation.

Purinergic signaling plays a unique role in the brain by integrating neuronal and glial cellular circuits. The metabotropic P1 adenosine receptors and P2Y nucleotide receptors and ionotropic P2X receptors control numerous physiological functions of neuronal and glial cells and have been implicated in a wide variety of neuropathologies. Emerging research suggests that purinergic receptor interactions between cells of the central nervous system (CNS) have relevance in the prevention and attenuation of neurodegenerative diseases resulting from chronic inflammation. CNS responses to chronic inflammation are largely dependent on interactions between different cell types (i.e., neurons and glia) and P2X and P2Y receptors. Whereas numerous P2 receptors contribute to functions of the CNS, the P2Y2R is believed to play an important role in neuroprotection under inflammatory conditions. While acute inflammation is necessary for tissue repair due to injury, chronic inflammation contributes to neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and occurs when glial cells undergo prolonged activation resulting in extended release of proinflammatory cytokines and nucleotides. This review describes cell-specific and tissue-integrated functions of P2 receptors in the CNS with an emphasis on P2Y2R signaling pathways in neurons, glia and endothelium and their role in neuroprotection.
