Differential coupling of the human P2Y(11) receptor to phospholipase C and adenylyl cyclase.

ABSTRACT: 1. The human P2Y(11) (hP2Y(11)) receptor was stably expressed in two cell lines, 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells (1321N1-hP2Y(11)) and Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-hP2Y(11)), and its coupling to phospholipase C and adenylyl cyclase was assessed. 2. In 1321N1-hP2Y(11) cells, ATP promoted inositol phosphate (IP) accumulation with low microM potency (EC(50)=8.5+/-0.1 microM), whereas it was 15 fold less potent (130+/-10 microM) in evoking cyclic AMP production. 3. In CHO-hP2Y(11) cells, ATP promoted IP accumulation with slightly higher potency (EC(50)=3.6+/-1.3 microM) than in 1321N1-hP2Y(11) cells, but it was still 15 fold less potent in promoting cyclic AMP accumulation (EC(50)=62.4+/-15.6 microM) than for IP accumulation. Comparable differences in potencies for promoting the two second
