Human mast cell activation is modulated by ATP binding to P2-purinoceptors on the mast cell surface. ATP binding to the purinoceptors provides a target for therapeutic intervention for the treatment of disorders characterized by undesirable mast cell mediator release, such as asthma and allergy. Inhibitors of ATP binding to mast cell P2- purinoceptors are useful therapeutic agents for treatment of those disorders. Methods of treatment using such agents, and in vitro screening assays for selection of the therapeutic agents, are described.

L'activation du mastocyte humain est modulée par la fixation de l'adénosine triphosphate (ATP) à des purinocepteurs-P2 (récepteurs) à la surface dudit mastocyte. La fixation de l'ATP à ces purinocepteurs constitue une cible pour une intervention thérapeutique aux fins du traitement d'état pathologiques, l'asthme et l'allergie, notamment, caractérisés par une libération indésirable du médiateur du mastocyte. Des inhibiteurs de la fixation de l'ATP aux purinocepteurs-P2 du mastocyte se révèlent d'utiles agents thérapeutiques de ces états pathologiques. L'invention porte également sur des méthodes thérapeutiques faisant intervenir ces agents ainsi que sur des criblages in vitro aux fins de la sélection des agents thérapeutiques.
