Ca2+ release and activation of K+ and Cl- currents by extracellular ATP in distal nephron epithelial cells

Abstract: We have measured ionic currents and changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) induced by extracellular ATP in single epithelial cells of the distal nephron from toad (A6 cells). ATP increased [Ca2+]i and concomitantly activated ionic currents. The ATP concentration for half-maximal increase in [Ca2+]i was approximately 10 microM. Current activation and elevation of [Ca2+]i also occurred in Ca(2+)-free bath solutions but were abolished by loading the cells via the patch pipette with 10 mM 1,2-bis(2-… Show more

“…However, it should be noted that a 10-min incubation in a calcium-free medium could also have depleted the Ca2 , stores, thus ren dering a final interpretation of these experiments difficult. In order to investigate this, we observed the effects o f ATP which as recently been shown to increase Ca2 , by releasing Ca2', [30]. As shown in figure 7.…”

“…However, many of the studies of distal tubule cells have been carried out on cell lines such as A6 (derived from Xenopus kidney) and Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell. ATP activates both Cl − and K + channels in distal nephron epithelial cells from the cell line A6 by a Ca 2+ -dependent mechanism [243,257,315], probably via P2Y 2 receptors [19, 250,251] and also in a rabbit distal convoluted tubule cell line [26]. The high-affinity Ca 2+ channel of the distal tubule luminal membrane is regulated by ATP, and ATP plays a crucial role in the integrity of the cytoskeleton, which is also involved in the control of Ca 2+ channels in this membrane [35,284].…”

“…Activation of purinergic receptors by ATP induces the release of Ca 2+ from the ER. The key mechanism for ATP-mediated chloride secretion is intracellular Ca 2+ release, which in turn will active calcium-activated chloride channels (CaCC) [34]. In fact, a truncated form of PC1 has been shown to enhance ATP-stimulated chloride secretion in the mouse collecting duct cells [44].…”
