The patch-clamp
technique was used to determine the ionic conductances activated by ATP
in murine colonic smooth muscle cells. Extracellular ATP, UTP, and
2-methylthioadenosine 5'-triphosphate (2-MeS-ATP) increased
outward currents in cells with amphotericin B-perforated patches. ATP
(0.5-1 mM) did not affect whole cell currents of cells dialyzed
with solutions containing ethylene glycol-bis(
-aminoethyl
ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic
acid. Apamin (3 × 10
7
M) reduced the outward current activated by ATP by 32 ± 5%. Single channel recordings from cell-attached patches showed that ATP, UTP, and
2-MeS-ATP increased the open probability of small-conductance, Ca2+-dependent
K+ channels with a slope
conductance of 5.3 ± 0.02 pS. Caffeine (500 µM) enhanced the open
probability of the small-conductance K+ channels, and ATP had no effect
after caffeine. Pyridoxal phosphate 6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid tetrasodium (PPADS,
10
4 M), a nonselective
P2 receptor antagonist, prevented
the increase in open probability caused by ATP and 2-MeS-ATP. PPADS had
no effect on the response to caffeine. ATP-induced hyperpolarization in
the murine colon may be mediated by
P2y-induced release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and
activation of the 5.3-pS
Ca2+-activated
K+ channels.
