An exact solution for the concentration profile in tubes with surface reaction coupled with permeation have been obtained in terms of fast converging confluent hypergeometric function that gives accurate results. An excellent agreement between the experimental and theoretical results of the intracellular calcium ion concentration in the calf aorta endothelial cells and the extracellular ATP concentration provides yet another example in support of the mass transfer model for intracellular calcium response of the endothelial cells.

SummaryHuman platelets are thought to possess at least two subtypes of purinoceptor, one of which, coupled to G-proteins, could be the P2Y1 receptor (Léon et al. 1997). However, it has been suggested that the unique rapid calcium influx induced by ADP in platelets could involve P2X1 ionotropic receptors (MacKenzie et al. 1996) and the aim of this study was thus to investigate the presence of P2X purinoceptors in platelets and megakaryoblastic cells. Using PCR experiments, we found P2X1 mRNA to be present in human platelets and megakaryoblastic cell lines. In platelets, the selective P2X1 agonist αβMeATP induced a rise in intracellular calcium only in the presence of external calcium and this effect was antagonized by suramin and PPADS. Repeated addition of a�MeATP desensitized the P2X1 purinoceptor but only slightly affected the ADP response, while no calcium response to αβMeATP was observed in megakaryoblastic cells. These results support the existence of functional P2X1 purinoceptors on human platelets and the presence of P2X1 transcripts in megakaryoblastic cell lines.
