Adenosine A2a receptors induce heterologous desensitization of chemokine receptors

Abstract: Adenosine, released by cells in an injurious or hypoxic environment, possesses potent anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the production of proinflammatory cytokines and superoxide anions (O 2 ؊ ). We hypothesized that adenosine compounds also induced heterologous desensitization of chemokine receptors, which played a critical role in leukocyte trafficking. Our studies using adenosine receptor subtype-specific agonists revealed that pretreatment with adenosine compounds suppressed RANTES-induced chemotaxis… Show more

“…Indeed, our data indicate that it is expressed at equal or even higher levels than the A 2A AR. Compared with recent reports using RT-PCR, the pattern of AR receptor expression in mouse bone marrow neutrophils seems to be similar to that of circulating human neutrophils, where A 2A -and A 3 AR expression is predominant, followed by low levels of expression of the A 2B AR subtype and little or no detectable expression of A 1 AR message Fortin et al, 2006;Zhang et al, 2006). Unlike the A 2A AR, expression of the A 3 AR was not increased in neutrophils obtained from mice treated with LPS, indicating that the A 3 AR may not be transcriptionally regulated by pro-inflammatory cytokines in neutrophils.…”

“…This is the first report demonstrating that adenosine can be released upon chemokine stimulation in the nervous system while the contrary event, e.g., adenosine-stimulated chemokine release, has been reported in mouse astrocytes for CCL2, which also exerts neuroprotective activity (42). In different cellular systems, functional cross-talk between adenosine and chemokine receptors has been described in terms of heterologous desensitization (43). Extracellular adenosine release is known to occur from both glial and neuronal cells (44).…”

“…There are reports that adenosine suppresses the proliferation of murine BM-derived macrophages (43), but this effect is mediated by the A2b receptor. A2a stimulation promotes internalization of chemokine receptors (44), thereby limiting emigration of leukocytes from the blood into the tissue. This effect could also impact on monocyte and neutrophil efflux from the BM, a process controlled by chemokine receptors.…”
