Abstract

Chronic inflammation is the hallmark of cardiovascular pathologies with a major role in both disease progression and occurrence of long-term complications. The massive release of ATP during the inflammatory process activates various purinergic receptors, including P2Y11. This receptor is less studied but ubiquitously expressed in all cells relevant for cardiovascular pathology: cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial and immune cells. While several studies suggested a potential pro-inflammatory role for P2Y11 receptors, recent literature data are supportive of an anti-inflammatory profile characterized by the immunosuppression of dendritic cells, inhibition of fibroblast proliferation and of cytokines and ATP secretion. Moreover, modulation of its activity appears to mediate the positive inotropic effect of ATP and mitigate endothelial dysfunction, thus rendering this receptor a promising therapeutic target in the cardiovascular disease armamentarium. The aim of the present review is to summarize the current available knowledge on P2Y11-related purinergic signaling in the setting of inflammation and cardio-metabolic diseases.
