## Abstract ATP is the dominant messenger for astrocyteโtoโastrocyte calciumโmediated communication. Definition of the exact ATP/P2 receptors in astrocytes and of their coupling to intracellular calcium ([Ca^2+^]~i~) has important implications for brain physiology and pathology. We show that, with
G protein-coupled P2Y nucleotide receptors have been described in cells of the immune system, including neutrophils, monocytes, macrophages, B-and T-lymphocytes, granulocytes, and myeloblasts. In the monocyte/macrophage lineage, a P2Y 2 receptor subtype activated equipotently by adenosine 5โฒ-triphos
