Abstract
Increasing evidence indicated that purinergic signalling involved in electroacupuncture (EA)-induced analgesia. Whether purinergic P2Y14 receptor contributes to EA-mediated analgesia remains unclear. Here, we report that the expression of P2Y14 receptor in the hindlimb region of the primary somatosensory cortex (S1HL) was significantly upregulated on Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA)-induced pain model mice, while was downregulated after EA treatment (2 Hz frequency, 1 mA intensity, and 30 min duration) at "Zusanli" (also named ST36 acupoint). EA-mediated analgesia could be reversed by injection of P2RY14 agonist uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPG) into the bilateral S1HL, while prolonged by injection of P2RY14 antagonist pyridoxal phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid (PPTN). It suggested that EA may alleviate inflammatory pain by downregulating the expression of P2RY14 in the S1HL.
期刊介绍：
Nucleotides and nucleosides are primitive biological molecules that were utilized early in evolution both as intracellular energy sources and as extracellular signalling molecules. ATP was first identified as a neurotransmitter and later as a co-transmitter with all the established neurotransmitters in both peripheral and central nervous systems. Four subtypes of P1 (adenosine) receptors, 7 subtypes of P2X ion channel receptors and 8 subtypes of P2Y G protein-coupled receptors have currently been identified. Since P2 receptors were first cloned in the early 1990’s, there is clear evidence for the widespread distribution of both P1 and P2 receptor subtypes in neuronal and non-neuronal cells, including glial, immune, bone, muscle, endothelial, epithelial and endocrine cells.
