Abstract excerpt
The P2Y11 nucleotide receptor detects high extracellular ATP concentrations. Mutations of the human P2RY11 gene can play a role in brain autoimmune responses, and the P2Y11 receptor alanine-87-threonine (A87T) polymorphism has been suggested to affect immune-system functions. We investigated receptor functionality of the P2Y11 A87T mutant using HEK293 and 1321N1 astrocytoma cells. In HEK293 cells, the P2Y11...
