pubmed:abstractText
The stimulation of calcium efflux from Swiss 3T6 mouse fibroblasts by extracellular ATP was studied. It was found that the cells could be desensitized to ATP by a previous exposure to the nucleotide, lending support to the theory that this is a receptor mediated process. Another ATP-receptor mediated process in Swiss 3T6 cells, that is also subject to desensitization, causes the permeabilization of the plasma membrane to nucleotides and other normally impermeant compounds [Gonzalez et al., J. Cell. Physiol. 139:109 (1989)]. Here we demonstrate that selective desensitization of the ATP-dependent calcium mobilization pathway can be achieved without affecting ATP-induced permeabilization. Data are presented in support of the existence of multiple ATP-receptors (purinoceptors) in Swiss 3T6 cells.
