Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** P2Y6 is a GPCR that belongs to the Class A/1 (rhodopsin-like receptors) subfamily. It is a heterotrimeric receptor composed of three subunits: α, β, and γ. The receptor is activated by binding of pyrimidine-containing compounds, such as adenosine and uridine, which triggers a conformational change in the receptor, leading to activation of G proteins and downstream signaling pathways. P2Y6 is widely expressed in various tissues, including the nervous system, placenta, colon, and immune cells, and has been implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, including inflammation, immune responses, and cardiovascular diseases. **Pathways and Functions:** P2Y6 activation leads to the activation of phospholipase C (PLC) activity, which in turn triggers the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). IP3 mediates the release of calcium from intracellular stores, while DAG activates protein kinase C (PKC), leading to various downstream signaling events. P2Y6 has also been implicated in the regulation of smooth muscle cell migration, vascular associated smooth muscle cell proliferation, and transepithelial chloride transport. Furthermore, P2Y6 has been shown to modulate immune responses, including the activation of innate lymphoid cells and the regulation of inflammatory responses. **Clinical Significance:** P2Y6 has been implicated in various diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. In inflammatory bowel disease, P2Y6 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of inflammation and immune responses. In cardiovascular disease, P2Y6 has been implicated in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration. In cancer, P2Y6 has been shown to promote tumor growth and metastasis. Therefore, P2Y6 represents a promising target for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for these diseases. **Significantly Expressed Cells:** P2Y6 is widely expressed in various tissues, including: * Neural progenitor cells * Placental villous trophoblast * Colon goblet cells * Immature innate lymphoid cells * Enterocytes of the epithelium of large intestine * Cardiac endothelial cells * Enterocytes of the colon * Enterocytes of the epithelium of small intestine * Cardiac muscle myoblasts * Myeloid leukocytes In conclusion, P2Y6 is a complex GPCR that plays a crucial role in various physiological and pathological processes. Its involvement in inflammation, immune responses, and cardiovascular disease makes it a promising target for the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms of P2Y6 and its clinical significance.
