Existence of high and low affinity dinucleotides pentaphosphate-induced calcium responses in individual synaptic terminals and lack of correlation with the distribution of P2X1-7 subunits. Neurochemistry international, 2007, Volume: 50, Issue:4 Individual analysis of synaptic terminals calcium responses, induced by dinucleotides pentaphosphate, Ap(5)A or Gp(5)G, demonstrates the presence of two main groups considering the concentration required for stimulation. The first group corresponds to those responding to Ap(5)A or Gp(5)G at nanomolar concentration, representing 16% and 12%, respectively, and the second one responds to micromolar concentration and represents, respectively, 17% and 14%, of the total functional synaptosomal population in rat midbrain. Dose-response curves in single terminals showed an Ap(5)A EC(50) values of 0.9+/-0.2 nM and 11.8+/-0.9 microM, being the maximal intrasynaptosomal calcium increase of 200+/-0.3 and 125+/-0.2 nM for the high and low affinity responding terminals, respectively.

Individual analysis of synaptic terminals calcium responses, induced by dinucleotides pentaphosphate, Ap(5)A or Gp(5)G, demonstrates the presence of two main groups considering the concentration required for stimulation.
