The distribution of P2X1, P2X2, P2X3, P2X4, P2X5 and P2X6 receptors, a family of ATP-gated cation channels, in rat trigeminal, dorsal root, nodose, superior cervical, and coeliac ganglia was studied immunohistochemically. It was found that polyclonal antibodies for the six P2X receptor subtypes could label over 90% of neurones in these ganglia to different intensities. There was also considerab...
Changes in expression of P2X receptors (P2X1-7) during postnatal development of the rat cerebellum are described. At P3, immunoreactivity (ir) to all the P2X receptors, except for P2X3 receptors, was found in Purkinje cells and deep cerebellar nuclei, P2X5-ir being most prominent. Granular and microglial cells were labeled for P2X5 (weakly) and P2X4 receptors, respectively. At P7, expression of...
Nodose ganglion (NG) neurons are visceral primary sensory neurons. The transmission and regulation of visceral sensation is mediated mainly by the P2X purinoceptor (P2X receptor). Although the characteristics of different P2X receptor subunits in the NG have been studied previously, comprehensive analyses have not been performed. In this study, we used immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry,...
INTRODUCTION Cancer pain creates a poor quality of life and decreases survival. The basic neurobiology of cancer pain is poorly understood. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and the ATP ionotropic receptor subunits, P2X2 and P2X3, mediate cancer pain in animal models; however, it is unknown whether this mechanism operates in human, and if so, what the relative contribution of P2X2- and P2X3-containi...
From studies performed primarily in mammals, it is thought that the P2X(3) purinoreceptor is involved in mediating sensory and nociceptive signals in adult tissues. However, little is known concerning the expression or function of P2X family genes during early development. Here we describe the expression of a gene (p2x3) encoding a P2X(3) receptor during zebrafish development. We find that zebr...
P2X2/3 and P2X3 receptors contribute to the metaboreceptor component of the exercise pressor reflex.
The exercise pressor reflex is due to activation of thin fiber afferents within contracting muscle. These afferents are in part stimulated by ATP activation of purinergic 2X (P2X) receptors during contraction. Which of the P2X receptors contribute to the reflex is unknown; however, P2X2/3 and P2X3 receptor subtypes are good candidates because they are located on thin fiber afferents and are inv...
The aim of the present experiments was to clarify the subunit stoichiometry of P2X2/3 and P2X2/6 receptors, where the same subunit (P2X2) forms a receptor with two different partners (P2X3 or P2X6). For this purpose, four non-functional Ala mutants of the P2X2, P2X3, and P2X6 subunits were generated by replacing single, homologous amino acids particularly important for agonist binding. Co-expre...
The function of ATP-activated P2X3 receptors involved in pain sensation is modulated by desensitization, a phenomenon poorly understood. The present study used patch-clamp recording from cultured rat or mouse sensory neurons and kinetic modeling to clarify the properties of P2X3 receptor desensitization. Two types of desensitization were observed, a fast process (t1/2 = 50 ms; 10 microM ATP) fo...
Terminal differentiation of urothelium is a prerequisite for blood-urine barrier formation and enables normal sensory function of the urinary bladder. In this study, urothelial differentiation of normal human urothelium and of low and high grade papillary urothelial carcinomas was correlated with the expression and localization of purinergic receptors (P2X3, and P2X5) and transient receptor pot...
Double stranded, short interfering RNAs (siRNA) of 21-22 nt length initiate a sequence-specific, post-trancriptional gene silencing in animals and plants known as RNA interference (RNAi). Here we show that RNAi can block a pathophysiological pain response and provide relief from neuropathic pain in a rat disease model by down regulating an endogenous, neuronally expressed gene. Rats, intratheca...
