    Endothelial <t>P2Y</t> <t>6</t> <t>R</t> activation failed to increase monocyte adhesion during schistosomiasis. A. Monocyte adhesion induced by UDP 100 µM was blocked by the selective P2Y 6 R antagonist (MRS2578 1 µM) in the control group (white bars). B. UDP 100 µM stimulus did not increase monocyte adhesion in the infected group (gray bars). ARL67156 100 µM = ectonucleotidase inhibitor (added 30 min before). Data were expressed as mean and SEM of n independent experiments performed in triplicate for each condition. ***p < 0.001 (One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test, n = 4 animals for each group)

    Endothelial P2Y 6 R mRNA and protein levels are reduced during schistosomiasis. A. Immunocytochemistry staining of cultured mesenteric endothelial cells from control (top line) and infected (bottom line) groups using anti-P2Y 6 R antibody (1:500, overnight), followed by Alexa Fluor 488 secondary antibody (1:300, 1 h, green) and nuclear fluorescence using DAPI (blue) (scale bar = 20 μm; × 400) (see methods). B. The fluorescence intensity was quantified and then expressed as arbitrary units (a.u.). P2Y 6 R mRNA levels were lower in the infected (gray bars) than in the control (white bars) group. C. The P2Y 6 R mRNA levels were normalized by the endogenous gene β-actin. Data were expressed as mean and SEM of n independent cultures performed with different animals for each condition. ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01 (unpaired t -test, n = 3–4 animals for each group)

    Endothelial P2Y 6 R downregulation is mediated by proteosome degradation during schistosomiasis. A. Treatment with the ectonucleotidase inhibitor ( ARL67156 100 µM, 24 h) followed by a wash step and UDP 100 µM (5 h); treatment with apyrase 2 U/L (24 h) followed by washing and UDP 100 µM (5 h). B. Treatment with the proteosome inhibitor MG132 (1 µM, 1 h) followed by UDP (100 µM, 5 h). Data were expressed as mean and SEM of n independent cultures in triplicate for each condition. ***p < 0.001, *p < 0.05 (One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test, n = 3 animals for each group).

    Proposed mechanism of proteasomal-dependent P2Y 6 receptor downregulation pathway in mesenteric endothelial cells in a preclinical model of intestinal schistosomiasis. The mesenteric endothelial cells primed by infection showed a proteasome-dependent P2Y 6 receptor downregulation under conditions of oxidative stress (1) triggering post-translational modifications protein such as polyubiquitination (2), which targets the receptor to the proteasomal degradation pathway (3–4), ultimately resulting in reduced endothelial P2Y 6 R expression and diminished proinflammatory effect (5)

G . Co-localization of the P2Y 13 receptor (red) in NSCs with SOX2 (white) and GFAP (green) in the adult SEZ (scale bar 30 µm). H. SEZ-derived cell populations expressing the P2Y 13 receptor in a FACs analysis using a P2Y 13 -GFP conjugated antibody. Note how the expression is mainly associated with the qNSC fraction (n=3). All graphs show the mean ±SEM: *p<0.05, **p<0.01, and ***p<0.001 (T-test).

    Proposed mechanism of proteasomal-dependent P2Y 6 receptor downregulation pathway in mesenteric endothelial cells in a preclinical model of intestinal schistosomiasis. The mesenteric endothelial cells primed by infection showed a proteasome-dependent P2Y 6 receptor downregulation under conditions of oxidative stress (1) triggering post-translational modifications protein such as polyubiquitination (2), which targets the receptor to the proteasomal degradation pathway (3–4), ultimately resulting in reduced endothelial P2Y 6 R expression and diminished proinflammatory effect (5)

    Working model of P2Y 11 crosstalk with IL-1R and chemokine receptors summarizing current findings and knowledge. P2Y 11 couples to G q and G s proteins. While G q activates phospholipase Cß and thus initiates the mobilization of Ca 2+ (via inositol triphosphate, IP 3 ) as well as the activation of protein kinase C (PKC, via diacylglycerol, DAG), G s activates adenylyl cyclase (AC) to increase the levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP). P2Y 11 upregulates CXCR4 and via IL-1R also CXCR7. Upregulation of IL-1R, CXCR7 and CCL20 depends on cyclic AMP. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) supports upregulation of CXCR7, which serves as an EGFR activator potentiating its signaling capacity, generating a feed-forward loop. Thus, CXCR7 stimulates its own expression with the help of EGFR. By coupling to G i , which blocks the cyclic AMP-generating enzyme AC, and by recruiting the cyclic AMP-degrading enzyme PDE4 via ß-arrestin, CXCR4 serves as a perfectly suited sentinel of intracellular cyclic AMP levels and thus as a regulatory checkpoint of P2Y 11 /IL-1R induced and EGFR/CXCR7-mediated responses (dashed inhibitory arrow) such as the selective activation of CCL20 secretion. Once CXCR7 is fully activated by TC14012, it takes control and eliminates CXCR4 expression (inhibitory arrow) and thus also the need for rolipram-mediated PDE4 inhibition

    Effect of the P2Y 13 receptor on NSC self-renewal. A .

B. Proportion of GFAP + /SOX2 + NSCs relative to the total number of cells in the culture according to the following labels: “Initial” indicates the proportion of GFAP + /SOX2 + in the culture and the “Quiescent” cells are the fraction of the initial cells that remain quiescent throughout the live imaging experiments. The “Clones” reflect the fraction of the initial cells that undergo lineage progression (Control and 2MeSADP n=5 and 2MeSADP+MRS2211 n = 4). C. The models represent the stereotypic behavior of NSCs under control conditions and when exposed to 2MeSADP or 2MeSADP+MRS211. Note how 2MeSADP increases the speed in the cell cycle while impeding self-renewal divisions. By contrast, MRS2211 instructs NSCs to remain quiescent. D.

    The P2Y 13 receptor is active in SEZ-derived NSCs in culture. NSCs in culture and loaded with the calcium dye Fura-2 were stimulated with 2MeSADP and after a washout period, they were re-exposed to 2MeSADP in the presence of either the P2Y1 receptor antagonist MRS2179 A or the P2Y 13 receptor antagonist MRS2179 B . All compounds were tested at a concentration of 10 μM and representative traces of the F340/F380 fluorescence ratios recorded from single cells are shown. C . Immunocytochemistry identifying GFAP (green) and SOX2 (red) double positive NSCs that respond to the selective agonist of the P2Y 13 receptor, 2MeSADP (yellow arrowheads). Conversely, the intracellular calcium levels of GFAP positive parenchymal astrocytes (white arrow) does not change. D . Effects of 2MeSADP on voltage-gated currents in SEZ-derived NSCs in culture. Outward currents evoked by a depolarising pulse (+10 mV, 100 ms from a Vh of −80 mV) were increased in the presence of 2MeSADP (10 µM, 2 min). Subsequent exposure to MRS221 (10 µM, 2 min) partially reversed the potentiating effect of 2MeSADP (upper panel). At variance, exposure to MRS2179 (10 µM, 2 min) of 2MeSADP with MRS2179 (10 µM, 2 min) did not have any effect on outward current increase elicited by 2MeSADP (10 µM, 2 min) (lower panel). E . Scatter plot of outward current charges from the experiments shown in ( D ), in the presence or absence of 2MeSADP (10 µM, 2 min: left panel), and following co-incubation (right panels) with MRS2211 (upper right) or MRS2179 (lower right). The values are the means ± SEM of the number of cells indicated between parentheses; the statistical significance was assessed using the student’s T-test for paired samples: *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.

    Effect of the P2Y 13 receptor on NSC self-renewal. A . Quantification of the symmetric lineage trees (generating only neuroblasts) and the asymmetric lineage trees (generating neuroblasts and new NSCs through self-renewal events) in control conditions, or on exposure to 2MeSADP or 2MeSADP + MRS2211 (n=4). B. Proportion of GFAP + /SOX2 + NSCs relative to the total number of cells in the culture according to the following labels: “Initial” indicates the proportion of GFAP + /SOX2 + in the culture and the “Quiescent” cells are the fraction of the initial cells that remain quiescent throughout the live imaging experiments. The “Clones” reflect the fraction of the initial cells that undergo lineage progression (Control and 2MeSADP n=5 and 2MeSADP+MRS2211 n = 4). C. The models represent the stereotypic behavior of NSCs under control conditions and when exposed to 2MeSADP or 2MeSADP+MRS211. Note how 2MeSADP increases the speed in the cell cycle while impeding self-renewal divisions. By contrast, MRS2211 instructs NSCs to remain quiescent. D. Cell Cycle length within the complex trees tracked (≥4 rounds of division). E . Cell Cycle length for the first division within the complex trees tracked (≥4 rounds of division, n= 5). Note that this first division is normally associated with slow-dividing astroglia, yet 2MeSADP significantly increase the speed of the cell cycle (n=5).
