“…Unlike other P2 receptors, the human P2Y 14 receptor is activated by UDP-Glc, UDP-GlcNAc, and other UDP-sugars but not by di-or triphosphonucleotides (3). P2Y 14 receptor transcripts are expressed in several human tissues, including placenta, stomach, intestine, adipose, brain, lung, spleen, heart, and circulating leukocytes (3,(5)(6)(7). UDPsugar-promoted signaling has been reported in astrocytes and microglial cells (8,9), lung epithelial cells (10), bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (11), and multiple types of peripheral immune cells, including neutrophils, lymphocytes, and dendritic cells (6,7,12,13).…”
