Leukocytes sense extracellular ATP, a danger-associated molecular pattern, released during cellular stress and death, via activation of cell surface P2X and P2Y receptors. Here, we investigate P2 receptor expression in primary human monocyte-derived macrophages and receptors that mediate ATP-evoked intracellular [Ca<sup>2+</sup>]<sub>i</sub> signals and cytokine production in response to ATP concentrations that exclude P2X<sub>7</sub> receptor activation. Expression of P2X<sub>1</sub>, P2X<sub>4 ...[more]
