Although extracellular ATP is abundant at sites of inflammation, its role in
activating inflammasome signalling in neutrophils is not well characterized. In
the current study, we demonstrate that human and murine neutrophils express
functional cell-surface P2X7R, which leads to ATP-induced loss of intracellular
K(+), NLRP3 inflammasome activation and IL-1? secretion. ATP-induced P2X7R
activation caused a sustained increase in intracellular [Ca(2+)], which is
indicative of P2X7R channel opening. Although there are multiple polymorphic
variants of P2X7R, we found that neutrophils from multiple donors express P2X7R,
but with differential efficacies in ATP-induced increase in cytosolic [Ca(2+)].
Neutrophils were also the predominant P2X7R-expressing cells during Streptococcus
pneumoniae corneal infection, and P2X7R was required for bacterial clearance.
Given the ubiquitous presence of neutrophils and extracellular ATP in multiple
inflammatory conditions, ATP-induced P2X7R activation and IL-1? secretion by
neutrophils likely has a significant, wide ranging clinical impact.
