title: Different ATP effects on natriuretic peptide receptor subtypes in LLC-PK1 and NIH-3T3 cells.
abstract: We have observed different ATP interactions in two guanylate cyclase (GC)-coupled natriuretic peptide (NP) receptor subtypes, designated NPR-A and NPR-B. The NPR-A is selectively expressed by LLC-PK1 epithelial cells and the NPR-B by NIH-3T3 fibroblast cells. In LLC-PK1 membranes, ATP-Mg2+ potentiated ANP-stimulated GC activity (ANP-s-GC). In contrast, in NIH-3T3 membranes, ATP-Mg2+ inhibited ANP-s-GC but enhanced CNP-stimulated GC activity (CNP-s GC). ATP in the presence of Mn2+ inhibited LLC-PK1 and NIH-3T3 membrane ANP-s-GC and CNP-s-GC. These are the first data suggesting that the ATP-Mg2+ produces different effects between membrane NPR-A and -B subtypes. We have also demonstrated that GC of NPR-B is sensitive to methylene blue.
