## Abstract Guanosine has many trophic effects in the CNS, including the stimulation of neurotrophic factor synthesis and release by astrocytes, which protect neurons against excitotoxic death. Therefore, we questioned whether guanosine protected astrocytes against apoptosis induced by staurosporin
ATP-induced phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis was studied in cultured astrocytes. To characterize the Pz purinergic receptor-mediated effects of ATP, the subtype-specific agonists 2-methylthio ATP (2-MeSATP1, UTP, and a,P-methylene ATP were compared. ATP, UTP, or 2-MeSATP induced a dose-dependent inc
