Acetylcholine and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) raise intracellular Ca2+ concentration via muscarinic receptors and P-2U purinoceptors by releasing Ca2+ from intracellular Ca2+ stores in the neural retina of early embryonic chick. The signal transduction mechanisms for the muscarinic and purinergic Ca2+ responses were studied with fura-2 fluorescence measurements. Li+ (1 mM), which inhibits phosphatidylinositol metabolism, enhanced both the Ca2+ rises to carbamylcholine (CCh, 30 mu M), a muscarinic agonist, and ATP (200 mu M). Thapsigargin (250 nM), an inhibitor of Ca2+-ATPase of inositol trisphosphate (IP3)-sensitive Ca2+ stores, abolished both the Ca2+ rises to CCh (100 mu M) and ATP (500 mu M). U-73122 (2 mu M), an inhibitor of phospholipase C beta, suppressed the Ca2+ rise to ATP (500 mu M), but its analog U-73343 (2 mu M) did not suppress it. In contrast, both U-73122 and U-73343 suppressed the Ca2+ rise to CCh (100 mu M). Pertussis toxin (250 ng/ml) suppressed the ATP-induced Ca2+ rise at least partly, whereas no inhibition was observed on the CCh-induced Ca2+ rise. Cross-talk occurred between the muscarinic and purinergic Ca2+ mobilizations but they were not occlusive. This study suggests that the muscarinic and purinergic Ca2+ mobilizations utilize IP3-sensitive Ca2+ stores, but different signal transduction pathways are involved in between the muscarinic and purinergic Ca2+ responses.
