The initial microglial responses that occur after brain injury and
in various neurological diseases are characterized by microglial accumulation in the affected sites of brain that results from the
migration and proliferation of these cells. The early-phase signal
responsible for this accumulation is likely to be transduced by rapidly
diffusible factors. In this study, the possibility of ATP released from
injured neurons and nerve terminals affecting cell motility was
determined in rat primary cultured microglia. Extracellular ATP and ADP
induced membrane ruffling and markedly enhanced chemokinesis in Boyden
chamber assay. Further analyses using the Dunn chemotaxis chamber
assay, which allows direct observation of cell movement, revealed that
both ATP and ADP induced chemotaxis of microglia. The elimination of
extracellular calcium or treatment with
pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid,
suramin, or adenosine-3'-phosphate-5'-phosphosulfate did not
inhibit ATP- or ADP-induced membrane ruffling, whereas AR-C69931MX or
pertussis toxin treatments clearly did so. As an intracellular
signaling molecule underlying these phenomena, the small G-protein Rac
was activated by ATP and ADP stimulation, and its activation was also inhibited by pretreatment with pertussis toxin. These results strongly
suggest that membrane ruffling and chemotaxis of microglia induced by
ATP or ADP are mediated by Gi/o-coupled P2Y receptors.
Key words:
microglia; ATP; ADP; membrane ruffling; chemotaxis; Gi/o-coupled P2Y receptors
