General description

2′(3′)-O-(4-Benzoylbenzoyl)adenosine 5′-triphosphate is a photoreactive analog of ATP.

Application

2′(3′)-O-(4-Benzoylbenzoyl)adenosine 5′-triphosphate triethylammonium salt has been used as a P2X4 receptor agonist in rat kidney sections, type I diabetes induced rats and astrocyte−neuron coculture. It has also been used as a synthetic ATP analog in isotonic E3 medium.
Useful as a photoaffinity label for proteins and enzymes that bind ATP.

Biochem/physiol Actions

2′(3′)-O-(4-Benzoylbenzoyl)adenosine 5′-triphosphate triethylammonium salt is a selective purinergic receptor (P2X) agonist. It is more potent than ATP at homodimeric P2X7 receptors. It also effectively activates P2X1, P2X2, and P2X3 receptors. Useful as a photoaffinity label for proteins and enzymes that bind ATP.
Selective P2X purinergic agonist. It is more potent than ATP at homodimeric P2X7 receptors.

To assess the putative role of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) upon nitric oxide (NO) production in the hippocampus, we used as a model both rat hippocampal slices and isolated hippocampal neurons in culture, lacking glial cells. In hippocampal slices, additions of
