A P2X purinoceptor cDNA conferring a novel pharmacological profile

Bo, Xuenong, Zhang, Yi, Nassar, Mohammed, Burnstock, Geoffrey, Schoepfer, Ralf·1995·FEBS Letters

Abstract

We have cloned P2X 4, a member of the P2‐purinoceptor family, which has a new pharmacological profile. Rat P2X 4 is distantly related to P2X 1, P2X 2 and P2X 3 and is expressed in brain, spinal cord, lung, thymus, bladder, adrenal, testis and vas deferens. This ligand gated ion channel is activated by ATP and analogs with the potency order of ATP > ATP γ S > 2‐methylthio ATP > ADP ≈ αβ‐methylene ATP. However, none of the currently used P2X purinoceptor antagonists suramin, reactive blue 2 and PPADS blocked ATP evoked currents; in contrast their application resulted in potentiation of the agonist response. Due to lack of any known antagonist for P2X 4 it is unlikely that native P2X 4 has previously been recognized as a P2X purinoceptor.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
