Table 1.

In vitro pharmacological data for UDPG 1, UDP 3, and their analogues (nonsugar β-phosphoesters and other derivatives of UDP) in the inhibition of cAMP formation at recombinant hP2Y14 receptors expressed in HEK-293 cells stably transfected with the hP2Y14 and in the stimulation of PLC at recombinant hP2Y6 receptors stably expressed in 1321N1 cells. Unless noted: X, Y = O, Z = H.

a

Agonist potencies reflect stimulation of phospholipase C, unless noted, and were calculated using a four-parameter logistic equation and the GraphPad software package (GraphPad, San Diego, CA). EC50 values (mean ± standard error) represent the concentration at which 50% of the maximal effect is achieved. Relative efficacies (%) were determined by comparison with the effect produced by a maximal effective concentration of reference agonist (UDP-glucose, 1) in the same experiment. If no maximal effect is given, then 100% efficacy was achieved. N = 3.

Potency at P2Y6 receptor reported in Maruoka et al.,15 Besada et al.,17 and Ko et al.18 Potency at P2Y14 receptor reported in Ko et al.12,13

c

<50% effect at 10 μM.
