Microglial cells are known to express purinergic receptors for extracellular ATP of both the P2Y and P2X subtypes. Functional studies have shown that both primary mouse microglial cells and the N9 and N13 microglial cell lines express the pore-forming P2Z/P2X 7 receptor. Here we identify the presence of this receptor in N9 and N13 cells with a specific polyclonal Ab and show that microglial...
