It has recently been reported that activation of P2Y(1) receptor, one of the purine receptors, by extracellular nucleotides induces cytoprotection against oxidative stress. In this study, we examined the protective effect of ATP on the cell damage in human epidermal keratinocyte HaCaT cells exposed to H(2)O(2) via the P2Y receptor-mediated induction of intracellular antioxidants. The cells were damaged by exposure to H(2)O(2) in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The damage induced by 7.5 mM H(2)O(2) was blocked by pretreatment of the cells with ATP (1-10 µM). The protective effect of ATP was significantly reduced by P2Y receptor antagonists. Exogenously added ATP induced various intracellular antioxidants, including thiol-containing proteins, Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD) and thioredoxin-1, in HaCaT cells. In conclusion, it was found that ATP protected the cells from the H(2)O(2)-induced cell damages via the P2Y receptor-mediated induction of intracellular antioxidants.
