Abstract: 1 The human P2Y11 receptor is coupled to both the phosphoinositide and the cyclic AMP pathways. A pharmacological characterization of the recombinant human P2Y11 receptor has been conducted following stable expression in two different cell lines: the 1321N1 astrocytoma cells for inositol trisphosphate measurements and the CHO-K1 cells for cyclic AMP assays. The rank order of potency of a series of nucleotides was almost identical for the two pathways: ATPgammaS approximately BzATP > dATP > ATP > ADPbetaS > 2MeSATP. 2 ADPbetaS, AMPalphaS and A3P5PS behaved as partial agonists of the human P2Y11 receptor. At high concentrations, these three nucleotides were able to partially inhibit the ATP response. 3 Suramin was a more potent antagonist than reactive blue 2, whereas pyridoxal-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid was completely inactive. The P2Y11 receptor proved to be sensitive to suramin in a competitive way with an apparent Ki value of 0.82+/-0. 07 microM. 4 The ATP derivative AR-C67085 (2-propylthio-beta, gamma-dichloromethylene-D-ATP), a potent inhibitor of ADP-induced platelet aggregation, was the most potent agonist of the P2Y11 receptor, among the various nucleotides tested. 5 The pharmacological profile of the recombinant human P2Y11 receptor is closely similar to that of the cyclic AMP-coupled P2 receptor recently described in HL-60 cells, suggesting that it is the same receptor.
