Abstract
Extracellular adenine nucleotides interact with cell surface receptors to produce a myriad of physiological effects in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues (Burnstock, 1978; Gordon, 1986; Burnstock and Kennedy, 1986; Fleetwood and Gordon, 1987). Burnstock proposed in 1978 that these responses are mediated by two major receptor types: those physiologically activated by adenosine, called P1-purinergic receptors, and exhibiting a potency order of adenosine > AMP > ATP, and those activated by ATP or ADP, called P2-purinergic receptors, and exhibiting the potency order of ATP > ADP > AMP > adenosine. Subsequent studies proved that at least two subtypes of P1-purinergic receptors exist (A1- and A2- purinergic receptors) (Van Calker et al., 1979; Stiles, 1986; Williams, 1987). Subclassification of P2-purinergic receptors proved more difficult, since in contrast to the receptors for adenosine, no good antagonists of P2-purinergic receptors are available, and cell surface hydrolases readily metabolize ATP and ADP to adenosine, which can then produce physiological effects through P1-purinergic receptors. However, the development of relatively non-hydrolyzable analogs of ATP helped resolve this issue, and the observation of differential effects of a large number of ATP and ADP analogs led Burnstock and Kennedy to propose in 1985 that subypes of P2-purinergic receptors exist. P2X-purinergic receptors exhibit the potency order of Ap(CH2)pp > App(CH2)p > ADP > 2-methylthio ATP (2MeSATP) and P2Y-purinergic receptors exhibit the potency order of 2MeSATP > ATP > Ap(CH2)pp = App(CH2)p.
