Actions of Panx1 inhibitors on ATP-evoked currents in cells coexpressing
Panx1 and P2X7 receptor. A, examples of ATP-evoked currents in the
presence and absence of CBX, NPPB, and MFQ as indicated; currents were
slightly increased or unaltered. B, example of ATP-evoked currents in the
absence and presence of DIDS. C, summary of all experiments as illustrated in
A and B; results for NPPB and MFQ at each of the three P2X7Rs are
pooled because there was minimal or no effect, whereas inhibition by DIDS is
shown for each species, n = 5 to 18 for each point. DIDS
IC50 values were 90 ± 4, 130 ± 12, and 195 ±
21 μM for rat, mouse, and human P2X7R, respectively.
