1 P2Y12 receptor modulation of ADP-evoked intracellular Ca2+ signalling in THP-1 human monocytic cells. Adenosine Diphosphate purinergic receptor P2Y12 Homo sapiens
2 BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The Gi -coupled, ADP-activated P2Y12 receptor is well characterized as playing a key role in platelet activation via crosstalk with the P2Y1 receptor in ADP-evoked intracellular Ca2+ responses. Adenosine Diphosphate purinergic receptor P2Y12 Homo sapiens
3 However, there is limited knowledge on the role of P2Y12 receptors in ADP-evoked Ca2+ responses in other blood cells. Adenosine Diphosphate purinergic receptor P2Y12 Homo sapiens
4 Here, we investigated the role of P2Y12 receptor activation in the modulation of ADP-evoked Ca2+ responses in human THP-1 monocytic cells. Adenosine Diphosphate purinergic receptor P2Y12 Homo sapiens
5 ADP-evoked responses were attenuated either with pertussis toxin treatment, or P2Y12 receptor inhibition with two chemically distinct antagonists (ticagrelor, IC50 5.3 muM; PSB-0739, IC50 5.6 muM). Adenosine Diphosphate purinergic receptor P2Y12 Homo sapiens
6 ADP-evoked responses were suppressed following siRNA-mediated P2Y12 gene knockdown. Adenosine Diphosphate purinergic receptor P2Y12 Homo sapiens
