Astrogliosis in response to injury usually represents up-regulation of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), hypertrophy, and proliferation. Following pathological events in brain tissue, purine nucleotides and nucleosides are released into the extracellular space. The (patho)physiological importa

## Abstract ATP is the dominant messenger for astrocyte‐to‐astrocyte calcium‐mediated 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

ATP-induced arachidonic acid (AA) release was studied in [ 3 H]AAprelabeled cultured astrocytes. To characterize the P 2 purinoceptor-mediated effect of ATP, the subtype-specific agonists 2-methylthio ATP (2-MeSATP) and UTP were compared. ATP, UTP, or 2-MeSATP induced a dose-dependent increase of [
