In epithelial cells several intracellular signals regulate the secretion of larger molecules such as mucin via exocytosis and the transport of ions through channels and transporters. Using carbon-fiber amperometry, we previously reported that exocytosis of secretory granules in dog pancreatic duct epithelial cells (PDEC) can be stimulated by pharmacological activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) or protein kinase C (PKC), as well as by an increase of intracellular free Ca²⁺ ([Ca²⁺]_i). In this study, we examined whether exocytosis in these cells is modulated by activation of endogenous P2Y receptors, which increase cAMP and [Ca²⁺]_i. Low concentrations of ATP (<10 µM) induced intracellular Ca²⁺ oscillation but no significant exocytosis. In contrast, 100 µM ATP induced a sustained [Ca²⁺]_i rise and increased the exocytosis rate 7-fold. The contribution of Ca²⁺ or cAMP pathways to exocytosis was tested using the Ca²⁺ chelator, BAPTA, or the PKA inhibitors, H-89 or Rp-8-Br-cAMPS. Removal of [Ca²⁺]_i rise or inhibition of PKA each partially reduced exocytosis; when combined, they abolished exocytosis. In conclusion, ATP at concentrations >10 µM stimulates exocytosis from PDEC through both Ca²⁺ and cAMP pathways.
