Abstract
Osteocytes are considered the primary mechanical sensor in bone tissue and orchestrate the coupled bone remodeling activity of adjacent osteoblast and osteoclast cells.In vivoinvestigation of mechanically induced signal propagation through networks of interconnected osteocytes is confounded by their confinement within the mineralized bone matrix, which cannot be modeled in conventional culture systems. In this study, we developed a new model that mimics thisin vivoconfinement using gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) hydrogel or GelMA mineralized using osteoblast-like model cells. This model also enables real-time optical examination of osteocyte calcium (Ca2+) signaling dynamics in response to fluid shear stimuli cultured under confined conditions. Using this system, we discovered several distinct and previously undescribed patterns of Ca2+responses that vary across networks of interconnected osteocytes as a function of space, time and connectivity. Heterogeneity in Ca2+signaling may provide new insights into bone remodeling in response to mechanical loading. Overall, such a model can be extended to study signaling dynamics within cell networks exposed to flow-induced mechanical stimuli under confined conditions.

Abstract
Adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) mediates a variety of biological functions following nerve-evoked release, via activation of either G-protein-coupled P2Y- or ligand-gated P2X receptors. In smooth muscle, ATP, acting via P2Y receptors (P2YR), may act as an inhibitory neurotransmitter. The underlying mechanism(s) remain unclear, but have been proposed to involve the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] by phospholipase C (PLC), to evoke Ca2+ release from the internal store and stimulation of Ca2+-activated potassium (KCa) channels to cause membrane hyperpolarization. This mechanism requires Ca2+ release from the store. However, in the present study, ATP evoked transient Ca2+ increases in only ~10% of voltage-clamped single smooth muscle cells. These results do not support activation of KCa as the major mechanism underlying inhibition of smooth muscle activity. Interestingly, ATP inhibited Ins(1,4,5)P3-evoked Ca2+ release in cells that did not show a Ca2+ rise in response to purinergic activation. The reduction in Ins(1,4,5)P3-evoked Ca2+ release was not mimicked by adenosine and therefore, cannot be explained by hydrolysis of ATP to adenosine. The reduction in Ins(1,4,5)P3-evoked Ca2+ release was, however, also observed with its primary metabolite, ADP, and blocked by the P2Y1R antagonist, MRS2179, and the G protein inhibitor, GDPβS, but not by PLC inhibition. The present study demonstrates a novel inhibitory effect of P2Y1R activation on Ins(1,4,5)P3-evoked Ca2+ release, such that purinergic stimulation acts to prevent Ins(1,4,5)P3-mediated increases in excitability in smooth muscle and promote relaxation.

Abstract
Oxidative stress, the result of cellular production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), has been implicated in causing many renal diseases. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an important extracellular signal in the regulation of many intracellular processes in normal tubular cells as well as in the pathogenesis of cell injury. This study investigated the effect of ATP on H(2)O(2)-induced increase of cyclin kinase inhibitors (CKI) expression and its related signal molecules in primary cultured renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs). H(2)O(2) inhibited DNA synthesis in a concentration- (>50 microM) and time-dependent manner (>2 h), as determined by thymidine and BrdU incorporation, and by increase in the p21(WAF/Cip1) and p27(Kip1) expression levels. In contrast, ATP increased the level of thymidine, BrdU incorporation (>10(-5) M), and decreased the p21(WAF/Cip1) and p27(Kip1) expression levels, suggesting that ATP has a protective effect against H(2)O(2)-induced oxidative damage. Suramin, reactive blue 2 (RB-2), MRS 2159, and MRS 2179 did block the reversing effect of ATP. In addition, AMP-CPP or 2-methylthio-ATP blocked H(2)O(2)-induced inhibition of DNA synthesis, suggesting all these P2 purinoceptors may be potentially involved. ATP-induced stimulation of DNA synthesis was blocked by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and Akt inhibitors. These results suggest the involvement of P2 purinoceptors-mediated PI3K/Akt signal pathway in the protective effect of ATP against H(2)O(2)-induced oxidative damage. Indeed, pre-treatment with PI3K or Akt inhibitors did not protect H(2)O(2)-induced lipid peroxide (LPO) production and inhibition of thymidine incorporation. In conclusion, ATP, in part, blocked H(2)O(2)-induced increase of p21(WAF1/Cip1) and p27(Kip1) expression through PI3K and Akt signal pathway in renal PTCs.

Abstract
Although ATP has been shown to act as a modulator in various kidney functions, its effect on renal proximal tubule cell (PTC) proliferation has not been elucidated. This study investigated the effect of ATP on cell proliferation and the effect of its related signal pathways on primary cultured PTCs. Treatment with >10(-5) M ATP for 1 h stimulated incorporation of thymidine and bromodeoxyuridine. ATP (10(-4) M)-induced stimulation of thymidine incorporation was blocked by suramin (a P2X and P2Y receptor antagonist), reactive blue 2 (a P2Y receptor antagonist), MRS-2159 (a P2X1 receptor antagonist), and MRS-2179 (a P2Y1 receptor antagonist). ATP increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration, which was blocked by suramin, methoxyverapamil, and EGTA. ATP-induced stimulation of cell proliferation was also blocked by EGTA (an extracellular Ca2+ chelator), methoxyverapamil (a Ca2+ antagonist), and nifedipine (an L-type Ca2+ channel blocker), suggesting a role for Ca2+ influx. ATP-induced phosphorylation of p38 and p44/42 MAPKs was blocked by nifedipine. ATP increased expression levels of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)-2, CDK-4, and cyclin E, which were blocked by suramin, reactive blue 2, MRS-2179, MRS-2159, and nifedipine. However, ATP decreased expression levels of p21WAF1/Cip1 and p27kip1. ATP-induced stimulation of thymidine incorporation and increase of CDK-2 and CDK-4 expression were blocked by SB-203580 (a p38 MAPK inhibitor) and PD-98059 (an MEK inhibitor), but not by SP-600125 (a JNK inhibitor). In conclusion, ATP stimulates proliferation by increasing intracellular Ca2+ concentration and activating p38, p44/42 MAPKs, and CDKs in PTCs.

Abstract
Renal ischemic/reperfusion injury in vivo results in a significant increase of acute renal failure (ARF) and death. Nevertheless, there are many limitations in using in vivo models of renal ischemic injury to elucidate the detailed mechanisms of renal injury. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an extracellular signal, has been shown to be an important factor in regulation of epithelial cell function. Thus, the present study was performed to establish in vitro ischemic model using primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs) and to examine the effect of ATP in this model. We established an in vitro model of ischemic injury, causing severe depletion of intracellular ATP by using the combination of a mitochondrial respiration inhibitor (antimycin A), non-metabolizable glucose analog (2-deoxyglucose), and calcium ionophore (A23187) in PTCs. Indeed, this ischemic injury significantly increased LDH release, a marker of structural damage, and ATP blocked ischemic injury-induced LDH release. 2-Methylthio-ATP and ATP-gamma-S (P2Y purinoceptor agonists) also blocked ischemic injury-induced LDH release, whereas AMP-CPP (P2X purinoceptor agonist) did not block it. In experiments to examine the relationship between ischemic injury and NF-kappaB activation, ischemic injury increased NF-kappaB translocation, DNA binding activity, and CAT activity. On the other hand, ATP, ATP-gamma-S, or 2-methylthio-ATP protected ischemic injury-induced NF-kappaB activation. These results suggest that the protective effect of ATP on ischemic injury is, in part, related to inhibition of NF-kappaB activation via P2Y receptor in PTCs.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP triggers changes in intracellular Ca(2+), ion channel function, and membrane trafficking in adipocytes. The aim of the present study was to determine which P2 receptors might mediate the Ca(2+) signaling and membrane trafficking responses to ATP in brown fat cells. RT-PCR was used to determine which P2 receptors are expressed in brown fat cells. Responses to nucleotide agonists and antagonists were characterized using fura-2 fluorescence imaging of Ca(2+) responses, and FM 1-43 fluorescence imaging and membrane capacitance measurements to assess membrane trafficking. The pharmacology of the Ca(2+) responses fits the properties of the P2Y receptors for which mRNA is expressed, but the agonist and antagonist sensitivity of the membrane-trafficking response was not consistent with any P2 receptor described to date. Brown adipocytes expressed mRNA for P2Y(2), P2Y(6), and P2Y(12) metabotropic receptors and P2X(1), P2X(2), P2X(3), P2X(4), P2X(5), and P2X(7) ionotropic receptors. The agonists ATP, ADP, UTP, UDP and 2', 3'-(benzoylbenzoyl) ATP (BzATP) increased intracellular Ca(2+), while 100 microM: suramin, pyridoxal-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2' 4'-disulfonic acid (PPADS), or Reactive Blue 2 partially blocked Ca(2+) responses. ATP, but not ADP, UTP, UDP or BzATP activated membrane trafficking. The membrane response could be blocked completely with 1 microM: PPADS but not by the antagonist MRS2179. We conclude that multiple P2 receptors mediate the ATP responses of brown fat cells, and that membrane trafficking is regulated by a P2 receptor showing unusual properties.

Abstract
Using immunohistological techniques and available polyclonal antibodies, we have identified several ATP-sensitive P2 receptor subtypes in specific structures of the normal rat kidney. Of the P2 receptor subtypes examined, P2X1, P2X2 and P2Y1 receptors were found in the smooth muscle layer of intrarenal vessels. The P2Y1 receptor was also found on glomerular mesangial cells, the brush border membrane of the proximal straight tubule and on peritubular fibroblasts. In the cortex, P2Y4 receptors were found on the tubule epithelium of the proximal convoluted tubule, and P2Y2 receptors on glomerular epithelial cells (podocytes). P2X4 and P2X6 receptors were present throughout the renal tubule epithelium from the proximal tubule to the collecting duct. P2X5 receptors were expressed on medullary collecting duct cells and the apical membrane of the S3 segment of the proximal tubule. Possible functions of these receptor subtypes in normal rat kidney are discussed.
