P2Y receptors are a class of G protein-coupled receptors activated primarily by ATP, UTP, and UDP. Five mammalian P2Y receptors have been cloned so far including P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y4, P2Y6, and P2Y11. P2Y1, P2Y2, and P2Y6 couple to the activation of phospholipase C, whereas P2Y4 and P2Y11 couple to the activation of both phospholipase C and the adenylyl cyclase pathways. Additional ADP receptors linked to Galpha(i) have been described but have not yet been cloned. SP1999 is an orphan G protein-coupled receptor, which is highly expressed in brain, spinal cord, and blood platelets. In the present study, we demonstrate that SP1999 is a Galpha(i)-coupled receptor that is potently activated by ADP. In an effort to identify ligands for SP1999, fractionated rat spinal cord extracts were assayed for Ca(2+) mobilization activity against Chinese hamster ovary cells transiently transfected with SP1999 and chimeric Galpha subunits (Galpha(q/i)). A substance that selectively activated SP1999-transfected cells was identified and purified through a series of chromatographic steps. Mass spectral analysis of the purified material definitively identified it as ADP. ADP was subsequently shown to inhibit forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity through selective activation of SP1999 with an EC(50) of 60 nM. Other nucleotides were able to activate SP1999 with a rank order of potency 2-MeS-ATP = 2-MeS-ADP > ADP = adenosine 5'-O-2-(thio)diphosphate > 2-Cl-ATP > adenosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate). Thus, SP1999 is a novel, Galpha(i)-linked receptor for ADP.

P2Y receptor activation in many cell types leads to phospholipase C activation and accumulation of inositol phosphates, while in blood platelets, C6-2B glioma cells, and in B10 microvascular endothelial cells a P2Y receptor subtype, which couples to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase, historically termed P2Y(AC), (P2T(AC) or P(2T) in platelets) has been identified. Recently, this receptor has been cloned and designated P2Y(12) in keeping with current P2 receptor nomenclature. Three selective P(2T) receptor antagonists, with a range of affinities, inhibited ADP-induced aggregation of washed human or rat platelets, in a concentration-dependent manner, with a rank order of antagonist potency (pIC(50), human: rat) of AR-C78511 (8.5 : 9.1)>AR-C69581 (6.2 : 6.0)>AR-C70300 (5.4 : 5.1). However, these compounds had no effect on ADP-induced platelet shape change. All three antagonists had no significant effect on the ADP-induced inositol phosphate formation in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells stably expressing the P2Y(1) receptor, when used at concentrations that inhibit platelet aggregation. These antagonists also blocked ADP-induced inhibition of adenylyl cyclase in rat platelets and C6-2B cells with identical rank orders of potency and overlapping concentration - response curves. RT - PCR and nucleotide sequence analyses revealed that the C6-2B cells express the P2Y(12) mRNA. These data demonstrate that the P2Y(AC) receptor in C6-2B cells is pharmacologically identical to the P2T(AC) receptor in rat platelets.

ADP plays a critical role in modulating thrombosis and hemostasis. ADP initiates platelet aggregation by simultaneous activation of two G protein-coupled receptors, P2Y1 and P2Y12. Activation of P2Y1 activates phospholipase C and triggers shape change, while P2Y12 couples to Gi to reduce adenylyl cyclase activity. P2Y12 has been shown to be the target of the thienopyridine drugs, ticlopidine and clopidogrel. Recently, we cloned a human orphan receptor, SP1999, highly expressed in brain and platelets, which responded to ADP and had a pharmacological profile similar to that of P2Y12. To determine whether SP1999 is P2Y12, we generated SP1999-null mice. These mice appear normal, but they exhibit highly prolonged bleeding times, and their platelets aggregate poorly in responses to ADP and display a reduced sensitivity to thrombin and collagen. These platelets retain normal shape change and calcium flux in response to ADP but fail to inhibit adenylyl cyclase. In addition, oral clopidogrel does not inhibit aggregation responses to ADP in these mice. These results demonstrate that SP1999 is indeed the elusive receptor, P2Y12. Identification of the target receptor of the thienopyridine drugs affords us a better understanding of platelet function and provides tools that may lead to the discovery of more effective antithrombotic therapies.

We have investigated the role of secretion and intracellular signalling events in aggregation induced by the glycoprotein (GP)VI-selective snake venom toxin convulxin and by collagen. We demonstrate that aggregation induced by threshold concentrations of convulxin undergoes synergy with ADP acting via the P2Y12 receptor whereas there is no synergy via the P2Y1 receptor or with thromboxanes. On the other hand, apyrase, the P2Y12 receptor antagonist, AR-C67085, and indomethacin only marginally inhibit aggregation induced by convulxin. In comparison, these inhibitors severely attenuate the response to collagen. In order to investigate whether the weak inhibitory action against convulxin is due to release of agonists other than ADP from dense granules, experiments were performed on murine platelets deficient in this organelle (pearl mice platelets). A slightly greater reduction in aggregation induced by convulxin was observed in pearl platelets than in the presence of inhibitors of ADP, but a maximal response was still attained. Importantly, inhibition of protein kinase C further reduced the response to convulxin in pearl platelets demonstrating a direct role for the kinase in aggregation. Chelation of intracellular Ca2+ with 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (acetoxymethyl)ester (BAPTA-AM) abolished aggregation induced by convulxin under all conditions. Activation of phospholipase C by convulxin was potentiated by ADP acting through the P2Y12 receptor. In conclusion, we show that Ca2+ and protein kinase C, but not release of the secondary agonists ADP and thromboxane A2, are required for full aggregation induced by convulxin, whereas the response induced by collagen shows a much greater dependence on secretion of secondary agonists.

With the cloning of the P2Y12 receptor, the molecular basis for ADP-induced platelet aggregation is seemingly complete. Two platelet-bound ADP receptors, P2Y1 and P2Y12, operate through unique pathways to induce and sustain platelet aggregation via the glycoprotein (GP)IIb-IIIa integrin. P2Y1 operates via a glycoprotein q (Gq) pathway, activates phospholipase C, induces platelet shape change and is responsible for intracellular calcium mobilisation. P2Y12 inhibits adenylyl cyclase through a glycoprotein i (Gi)-dependent pathway, and is the target of the clinically used thienopyridines, ticlopidine (Ticlid, F. Hoffman-La Roche) and clopidogrel (Plavix, Bristol-Myers Squibb/Sanofi-Synthelabo). In addition, the receptor is targeted by the ADP analogue AR-C66096, which is currently in Phase IIb clinical trials, as well as other non-nucleoside-based preclinical leads.

ADP is the cognate agonist of the P2Y1, P2Y12, and P2Y13 receptors. With the goal of identifying a high potency agonist that selectively activates the P2Y1 receptor, we examined the pharmacological selectivity of the conformationally constrained non-nucleotide analog (N)-methanocarba-2MeSADP [(1'S,2'R, 3'S,4'R,5'S)-4-[(6-amino-2-methylthio-9H-purin-9-yl)-1-diphosphoryloxymethyl]bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,3-diol] among the three ADP-activated receptors. Each P2Y receptor was expressed transiently in COS-7 cells, and inositol lipid hydrolysis was quantified as a measure of receptor activity. In the case of the Gi-linked P2Y12 and P2Y13 receptors, a chimeric G protein, Galphaq/i, was coexpressed to confer a capacity of these Gi-linked receptors to activate phospholipase C. 2MeSADP (2-methylthio-ADP) was a potent agonist at all three receptors exhibiting EC50 values in the sub to low nanomolar range. In contrast, whereas (N)-methanocarba-2MeSADP was an extremely potent (EC50=1.2 +/- 0.2 nM) agonist at the P2Y1 receptor, this non-nucleotide analog exhibited no agonist activity at the P2Y12 receptor and very low activity at the P2Y13 receptor. (N)-Methanocarba-2MeSADP also failed to block the action of 2MeSADP at the P2Y12 and P2Y13 receptors, indicating that the (N)-methanocarba analog is not an antagonist at these receptors. The P2Y1 receptor selectivity of (N)-methanocarba-2MeSADP was confirmed in human platelets where it induced the shape change promoted by P2Y1 receptor activation without inducing the sustained platelet aggregation that requires simultaneous activation of the P2Y12 receptor. These results provide the first demonstration of a high-affinity agonist that discriminates among the three ADP-activated P2Y receptors, and therefore, introduce a potentially important new pharmacological tool for delineation of the relative biological action of these three signaling proteins.

Binding of thrombopoietin (TPO) to the cMpl receptor on human platelets potentiates aggregation induced by a number of agonists, including ADP. In this work, we found that TPO was able to restore ADP-induced platelet aggregation upon blockade of the G(q)-coupled P2Y1 purinergic receptor but not upon inhibition of the G(i)-coupled P2Y12 receptor. Moreover, TPO triggered platelet aggregation upon co-stimulation of G(z) by epinephrine but not upon co-stimulation of G(q) by the thromboxane analogue U46619. Platelet aggregation induced by TPO and G(i) stimulation was biphasic, and cyclooxygenase inhibitors prevented the second but not the first phase. In contrast to ADP, TPO was unable to induce integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) activation, as evaluated by binding of both fibrinogen and PAC-1 monoclonal antibody. However, ADP-induced activation of integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) was blocked by antagonists of the G(q)-coupled P2Y1 receptor but was completely restored by the simultaneous co-stimulation of cMpl receptor by TPO. Inside-out activation of integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) induced by TPO and G(i) stimulation occurred independently of thromboxane A(2) production and was not mediated by protein kinase C, MAP kinases, or Rho-dependent kinase. Importantly, TPO and G(i) activation of integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) was suppressed by wortmannin and Ly294002, suggesting a critical regulation by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. We found that TPO did not activate phospholipase C in human platelets and was unable to restore ADP-induced phospholipase C activation upon blockade of the G(q)-coupled P2Y1 receptor. TPO induced a rapid and sustained activation of the small GTPase Rap1B through a pathway dependent on phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. In ADP-stimulated platelets, Rap1B activation was reduced, although not abolished, upon blockade of the P2Y1 receptor. However, accumulation of GTP-bound Rap1B in platelets activated by co-stimulation of cMpl and P2Y12 receptor was identical to that induced by the simultaneous ligation of P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptor by ADP. These results indicate that TPO can integrate G(i), but not G(q), stimulation and can efficiently support integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) activation platelet aggregation by an alternative signaling pathway independent of phospholipase C but involving the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and the small GTPase Rap1B.

We have synthesized a series of derivatives of the known P2 receptor antagonist PPADS (pyridoxal-5'-phosphate-6-azo-phenyl-2,4-disulfonate) and examined their ability to inhibit functional activity of the recombinant human P2Y13 nucleotide receptor expressed in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells co-expressing G(alpha)16 protein (AG32). Analogues of PPADS modified through substitution of the phenylazo ring, including halo and nitro substitution, and 5'-alkyl phosphonate analogues were synthesized and tested. A 6-benzyl-5'-methyl phosphonate analogue was prepared to examine the effect of stable replacement of the azo linkage. The highest antagonistic potency was observed for 6-(3-nitrophenylazo) derivatives of pyridoxal-5'-phosphate. The 2-chloro-5-nitro analogue (MRS 2211) and 4-chloro-3-nitro analogue (MRS 2603) inhibited ADP (100 nM)-induced inositol trisphosphate (IP3) formation with pIC50 values of 5.97 and 6.18, respectively, being 45- and 74-fold more potent than PPADS. The antagonism of MRS 2211 was competitive with a pA2 value of 6.3. MRS2211 and MRS2603 inhibited phospholipase C (PLC) responses to 30 nM 2-methylthio-ADP in human P2Y1 receptor-mediated 1321N1 astrocytoma cells with IC50 values of >10 and 0.245 microM, respectively. Both analogues were inactive (IC50>10 microM) as antagonists of human P2Y12 receptor-mediated PLC responses in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells. Thus, MRS2211 displayed >20-fold selectivity as antagonist of the P2Y13 receptor in comparison to P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptors, while MRS2603 antagonized both P2Y1 and P2Y13 receptors.

Membrane-bound P2-receptors mediate the actions of extracellular nucleotides in cell-to-cell signalling. P2X-receptors are ligand-gated ion channels, whereas P2Y-receptors belong to the superfamily of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). So far, the P2Y family is composed out of 8 human subtypes that have been cloned and functionally defined; species orthologues have been found in many vertebrates. P2Y1-, P2Y2-, P2Y4-, P2Y6-, and P2Y11-receptors all couple to stimulation of phospholipase C. The P2Y11-receptor mediates in addition a stimulation of adenylate cyclase. In contrast, activation of the P2Y12-, P2Y13-, and P2Y14-receptors causes an inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. The expression of P2Y1-receptors is widespread. The receptor is involved in blood platelet aggregation, vasodilatation and neuromodulation. It is activated by ADP and ADP analogues including 2-methylthio-ADP (2-MeSADP). 2'-Deoxy-N6-methyladenosine-3',5'-bisphosphate (MRS2179) and 2-chloro-N6-methyl-(N)-methanocarba-2'-deoxyadenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate (MRS2279) are potent and selective antagonists. P2Y2 transcripts are abundantly distributed. One important example for its functional role is the control of chloride ion fluxes in airway epithelia. The P2Y2-receptor is activated by UTP and ATP and blocked by suramin. The P2Y2-agonist diquafosol is used for the treatment of the dry eye disease. P2Y4-receptors are expressed in the placenta and in epithelia. The human P2Y4-receptor has a strong preference for UTP as agonist, whereas the rat P2Y4-receptor is activated about equally by UTP and ATP. The P2Y4-receptor is not blocked by suramin. The P2Y6-receptor has a widespread distribution including heart, blood vessels, and brain. The receptor prefers UDP as agonist and is selectively blocked by 1,2-di-(4-isothiocyanatophenyl)ethane (MRS2567). The P2Y11-receptor may play a role in the differentiation of immunocytes. The human P2Y11-receptor is activated by ATP as naturally occurring agonist and it is blocked by suramin and reactive blue 2 (RB2). The P2Y12-receptor plays a crucial role in platelet aggregation as well as in inhibition of neuronal cells. It is activated by ADP and very potently by 2-methylthio-ADP. Nucleotide antagonists including N6-(2-methylthioethyl)-2-(3,3,3-trifluoropropylthio)-beta,gamma-dichloromethylene-ATP (=cangrelor; AR-C69931MX), the nucleoside analogue AZD6140, as well as active metabolites of the thienopyridine compounds clopidogrel and prasugrel block the receptor. These P2Y12-antagonists are used in pharmacotherapy to inhibit platelet aggregation. The P2Y13-receptor is expressed in immunocytes and neuronal cells and is again activated by ADP and 2-methylthio-ADP. The 2-chloro-5-nitro pyridoxal-phosphate analogue 6-(2'-chloro-5'-nitro-azophenyl)-pyridoxal-alpha5-phosphate (MRS2211) is a selective antagonist. mRNA encoding for the human P2Y14-receptor is found in many tissues. However, a physiological role of the receptor has not yet been established. UDP-glucose and related analogues act as agonists; antagonists are not known. Finally, UDP has been reported to act on receptors for cysteinyl leukotrienes as an additional agonist--indicating a dual agonist specificity of these receptors.

We have previously shown that ADP-induced thromboxane generation in platelets requires signalling events from the G(q)-coupled P2Y1 receptor (platelet ADP receptor coupled to stimulation of phospholipase C) and the G(i)-coupled P2Y12 receptor (platelet ADP receptor coupled to inhibition of adenylate cyclase) in addition to outside-in signalling. While it is also known that extracellular calcium negatively regulates ADP-induced thromboxane A2 generation, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In the present study we sought to elucidate the signalling mechanisms and regulation by extracellular calcium of ADP-induced thromboxane A2 generation in platelets. ERK (extracllular-signal-regulated kinase) 2 activation occurred when outside-in signalling was blocked, indicating that it is a downstream event from the P2Y receptors. However, blockade of either P2Y1 or the P2Y12 receptors with corresponding antagonists completely abolished ERK phosphorylation, indicating that both P2Y receptors are required for ADP-induced ERK activation. Inhibitors of Src family kinases or the ERK upstream kinase MEK [MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase)/ERK kinase] abrogated ADP-induced ERK phosphorylation and thromboxane A2 generation. Finally ADP- or G(i)+G(z)-induced ERK phosphorylation was blocked in the presence of extracellular calcium. The present studies show that ERK2 is activated downstream of P2Y receptors through a complex mechanism involving Src kinases and this plays an important role in ADP-induced thromboxane A2 generation. We also conclude that extracellular calcium blocks ADP-induced thromboxane A2 generation through the inhibition of ERK activation.
