Adenosine A2A-Receptor Stimulation Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Interleukin-18 Production in Monocytes

Abstract: Abstract. Adenosine inhibited interleukin (IL)-18 production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated monocytes. The action of adenosine was antagonized by an adenosine A 2 A-receptor (A2AR) antagonist and was mimicked by an A2AR agonist, suggesting that the stimulation of A2AR may be involved in the actions of adenosine. On the other hand, the stimulation of A1R and A3R inhibited the actions of A2AR stimulation, whereas the stimulation of A2BR had no effect on them. Activation of A2AR is known to increase cycli… Show more

“…Our results showed the ability of adenosine to abolish the LPS-induced TNFα production in intestinal cell cultures (Fig. 2), in agreement with previous data [23]. However, adenosine had limited capacity to reduce (P<0.05) the PA2-or PA9-induced TNFα production.…”

“…A 1 R dysregulation leads to a proinflammatory state (11) and because of the high affinity of A 1 R (coupled to G i -protein) for adenosine, A 1 R blockade could potentially increase cAMP not only directly but also indirectly by displacing adenosine toward A 2a R (coupled to G s -protein), which ultimately will down-regulate TNF-␣ release (26,27). A 1 R is directly induced in response to infection and oxidative stress in multiple cells (28).…”

“…However, the effect of P1 receptor agonists on cytokine release from human mononuclear cells was shown to depend on the specific Toll-like receptor (TLR) subtype used for stimulation: the A 2A agonist CGS21680 inhibited TLR4-mediated TNF-α release, but potentiated TLR3- and TLR5-mediated IL-6 release [ 192 ]. Activation of A 2A receptors also inhibited LPS-induced IL-18 production, expression of adhesion molecules and production of TNF-α, in human monocytes [ 193 , 194 ]. Activation of A 1 receptors promoted multinucleated giant cell formation by human monocytes [ 195 ].…”
