Diinosine pentaphosphate: an antagonist which discriminates between recombinant P2X3 and P2X2/3 receptors and between two P2X receptors in rat sensory neurones

Abstract: 1 We have compared the antagonist activity of trinitrophenyl-ATP (TNP-ATP) and diinosine pentaphosphate (Ip 5 I) on recombinant P2X receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes with their actions at native P2X receptors in sensory neurones from dorsal root and nodose ganglia. 2 Slowly-desensitizing responses to a,b-methylene ATP (a,b-meATP) recorded from oocytes expressing P2X 2/3 receptors were inhibited by TNP-ATP at sub-micromolar concentrations. However, Ip 5 I at concentrations up to 30 mM was without e ect. 3 … Show more

“…DRG of rat and mouse are well studied in regard to the function of P2X receptors (see Dunn et al 2000). ATP depolarizes DRG neurons by eliciting fast-and slow-inactivat- n, number of P2X1-7-or P2Y1,2,4-positive cell profiles and the total number of cell profiles counted.…”

“…2Ai). This response has been attributed to the activation of homomeric P2X 3 receptors [Grubb and Evans, 1999;Dunn et al, 2000]. Application of the same concentration of MRS 2312 to these neurones failed to evoke a detectable response.…”

“…2 It will also be interesting to evaluate 7b at P2X receptors, at which diinosine polyphosphates are potent antagonists. 16 A receptor for guanosine was proposed, 17 based on neuroprotective effects observed for this nucleoside. However, the guanosine analogues here were examined only for interaction with ARs.…”
