The effect of extracellular nucleotides applied on the apical side of polarised A6 cells grown on permeant filters was investigated by measuring the changes in (i) the 36Cl efflux through the apical membranes, (ii) the intracellular chloride concentrations (aCli, measured with N-(6-methoxyquinolyl) acetoethyl ester, MQAE), (iii) ICl, the short-circuit current in the absence of Na+ transport and (iv) the characteristics of the apical chloride channels using a patch-clamp approach.


ATP or UTP (0·1-500 µM) transiently stimulated ICl. The sequence of purinergic agonist potencies was UTP = ATP > ADP >> the P2X-selective agonist beta,gamma-methylene ATP = the P2Y-selective agonist 2-methylthioATP. Suramin (100 µM) as the P2Y antagonist Reactive Blue 2 (10 µM) had no effect on the UTP (or ATP)-stimulated current. These findings are consistent with the presence of P2Y2-like receptors located on the apical membranes of A6 cells. Apical application of adenosine also transiently increased ICl. This effect was blocked by theophylline while the UTP-stimulated ICl was not. The existence of a second receptor, of the P1 type is proposed.


ATP (or UTP)-stimulated ICl was blocked by apical application of 200 µM N-phenylanthranilic acid (DPC) or 100 µM niflumic acid while 100 µM glibenclamide was ineffective.


Ionomycin and thapsigargin both transiently stimulated ICl; the nucleotide stimulation of ICl was not suppressed by pre-treatment with these agents. Chlorpromazin (50 µM), a Ca2+-calmodulin inhibitor strongly inhibited the stimulation of ICl induced either by apical UTP or by ionomycin application. BAPTA-AM pre-treatment of A6 cells blocked the UTP-stimulated ICl. Niflumic acid also blocked the ionomycin stimulated ICl.


A fourfold increase in 36Cl effluxes through the apical membranes was observed after ATP or UTP application. These increases of the apical chloride permeability could also be observed when following aCli changes. Apical application of DPC (1 mM) or 5-nitro-2(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB; 500 µM) produced an incomplete inhibition of 36Cl effluxes through the apical membranes in ATP-stimulated and in untreated monolayers.


In single channel patch-clamp experiments, an apical chloride channel with a unitary single channel conductance of 7·3 ± 0·6 pS (n = 12) was usually observed. ATP application induced the activation of one or more of these channels within a few minutes.


These results indicate that multiple purinergic receptor subtypes are present in the apical membranes of A6 cells and that nucleotides can act as modulators of Cl- secretion in renal cells.
