Xiong, Keming, Robert W. Peoples, Jennifer P. Montgomery, Yisheng Chiang, Randall R. Stewart, Forrest F. Weight, and Chaoying Li. Differential Modulation by Copper and Zinc of P2X2 and P2X4 Receptor Function. J. Neurophysiol. 81: 2088-2094, 1999.Differential Modulation by Copper and Zinc of P2X2 and P2X4 Receptor Function. The modulation by Cu2+ and Zn2+ of P2X2 and P2X4 receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes was studied with the two-electrode, voltage-clamp technique. In oocytes expressing P2X2 receptors, both Cu2+ and Zn2+, in the concentration range 1-130 µM, reversibly potentiated current activated by submaximal concentrations of ATP. The Cu2+ and Zn2+ concentrations that produced 50% of maximal potentiation (EC50) of current activated by 50 µM ATP were 16.3 ± 0.9 (SE) µM and 19.6 ± 1.5 µM, respectively. Cu2+ and Zn2+ potentiation of ATP-activated current was independent of membrane potential between -80 and +20 mV and did not involve a shift in the reversal potential of the current. Like Zn2+, Cu2+ increased the apparent affinity of the receptor for ATP, as evidenced by a parallel shift of the ATP concentration-response curve to the left. However, Cu2+ did not enhance ATP-activated current in the presence of a maximally effective concentration of Zn2+, suggesting a common site or mechanism of action of Cu2+ and Zn2+ on P2X2 receptors. For the P2X4 receptor, Zn2+, from 0.5 to 20 µM enhanced current activated by 5 µM ATP with an EC50 value of 2.4 ± 0.2 µM. Zn2+ shifted the ATP concentration-response curve to the left in a parallel manner, and potentiation by Zn2+ was voltage independent. By contrast, Cu2+ in a similar concentration range did not affect ATP-activated current in oocytes expressing P2X4 receptors, and Cu2+ did not alter the potentiation of ATP-activated current produced by Zn2+. The results suggest that Cu2+ and Zn2+ differentially modulate the function of P2X2 and P2X4 receptors, perhaps because of differences in a shared site of action on both subunits or the absence of a site for Cu2+ action on the P2X4 receptor.
