When added to intact C6 glioma cells in the micromolar range of concentrations, ADP and ATP induce an inhibition of the isoproterenol-elicited cAMP responses. ATP is rapidly hydrolyzed by the ectonucleotidases present on these cells, with an apparent Km of 50 microM and a Vmax of 1.1 nmol/min/10(6) cells. cAMP responses are also inhibited by millimolar concentrations of either ATP in the presence of an ATP-regenerating system to prevent ADP accumulation or AMP-PCP. These observations show that, in C6 glioma cells, ADP is a more potent inhibitor of cAMP production than ATP, the latter acting indirectly, via its rapid hydrolysis to ADP. The additive inhibition of isoproterenol-elicited cAMP responses induced, on one hand, by the treatment of the cells with a phorbol ester and by addition of ADP to the cells, and, on the other hand, by the progressive disappearance of the effects of ADP and ATP when cells are treated with increasing concentrations of Pertussis toxin, demonstrate that ADP and ATP exert their action in C6 glioma cells via a P2 purinoceptor probably negatively coupled to adenylate cyclase and a G regulatory protein.

3'-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl ATP (BzATP) was used as a photoaffinity analog of ATP to label potential ATP receptors in ciliated cells. Like ATP, without photoactivation, BzATP stimulated the ciliary beat frequency in tissue culture up to threefold. Irradiation of intact cells in the presence of [alpha-32P]BzATP followed by SDS-PAGE and autoradiography revealed two labeled proteins with molecular masses of 46 and 96 kDa (p46 and p96). Photolabeling of both proteins was susceptible to digestion with trypsin, implying that the labeled proteins are at least partially exposed on the extracellular surface of the plasma membrane. The dependence of 32P incorporation in both proteins on [alpha-32P]BzATP concentration was similar. Labeling of p46 but not p96 required Ca2+ or Mg2+. Various nucleotides stimulated the ciliary frequency, and inhibited the photolabeling of p46 and p96. The rank order of apparent affinity for p46 is: ATP approximately equal to ADP > GTP gamma S > ADP beta S, UTP, 2MeSATP, AMP-PNP > AMP-PCP > AMP > adenosine; for p96 it is: ADP approximately equal to ADP beta S > or = ATP >> AMP-PCP, AMP-PNP > GTP gamma S > or = AMP > 2MeSATP, UTP, adenosine. The rank of stimulation of ciliary beat frequency is: ADP beta S, UTP > or = 2MeSATP, GTP gamma S, AMP-PNP, ATP > or = ADP > AMP-PCP > adenosine > AMP. These results suggest the involvement of p46 in the stimulatory effect of extracellular ATP on the ciliary beat, as a P2 purinoceptor. On the other hand, p96 may represent a P2 purinoceptor or an ectonucleotidase.
