ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal smooth muscle relaxation is accomplished by activation of P2Y1 receptors, therefore this receptor plays an important role in regulation of gut motility. Recently, BPTU was developed as a negative allosteric modulator of the P2Y1 receptor. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to assess the effect of BPTU on purinergic neurotransmission in pig and human gastrointestinal tissues. METHODS: Ca2+ imaging in tSA201 cells that express the human P2Y1 receptor, organ bath and microelectrodes in tissues were used to evaluate the effects of BPTU on purinergic responses. KEY RESULTS: BPTU concentration dependently (0.1 and 1 µmol L-1 ) inhibited the rise in intracellular Ca2+ evoked by ADP in tSA201 cells. In the pig small intestine, 30 µmol L-1 BPTU reduced the fast inhibitory junction potential by 80%. Smooth muscle relaxations induced by electrical field stimulation were reduced both in pig ileum (EC50  = 6 µmol L-1 ) and colon (EC50  = 35 µmol L-1 ), but high concentrations of BPTU (up to 100 µmol L-1 ) had no effect on human colonic muscle. MRS2500 (1 µmol L-1 ) abolished all responses. Finally, 10 µmol L-1 ADPßS inhibited spontaneous motility and this was partially reversed by 30 µmol L-1 BPTU in pig, but not human colonic tissue and abolished by MRS2500 (1 µmol L-1 ). CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES: BPTU blocks purinergic responses elicited via P2Y1 receptors in cell cultures and in pig gastrointestinal tissue. However, the concentrations needed are higher in pig tissue compared to cell cultures and BPTU was ineffective in human colonic tissue.
