It belongs to the family of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and responds to extracellular nucleotides such as ATP and UTP. P2Y2 is mainly expressed in tissues including the lung kidney heart and immune cells. It plays a significant role in mediating cellular responses to external stimuli through nucleotide binding.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe P2Y2 receptor serves key functions in cellular signaling especially in processes like inflammation and tissue repair. It acts by coupling with G-protein complexes to initiate intracellular signaling cascades. Activation of P2Y2 can lead to the release of calcium from intracellular stores and activation of protein kinase pathways contributing to the regulation of cell proliferation migration and cytokine release. This receptor does not exist as part of a larger protein complex but interacts dynamically with other cellular machinery to regulate physiological functions.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nP2Y2 receptor engagement triggers responses in the phosphoinositide pathway and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. These pathways modulate cell growth and stress responses. P2Y2 receptor activity is interlinked with other receptors like P2Y1 and P2Y4 sharing similar downstream signaling effects. This interaction system allows for integrated cellular responses to various extracellular nucleotide concentrations making it critical for coordinated cellular responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nAltered P2Y2 expression or function associates with conditions like cystic fibrosis and atherosclerosis. In cystic fibrosis abnormal P2Y2 activity impacts chloride ion transport and mucus clearance due to its role in epithelial cell signaling. During atherosclerosis P2Y2 receptor modulates inflammatory response and vascular remodelling contributing to plaque formation. Its interaction with proteins such as CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) in cystic fibrosis and integrins in atherosclerosis exemplifies its involvement in disease mechanisms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854068142249,"sku":"ab272891","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab272891","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
