P2X7 receptor polymorphism impairs extracellular adenosine 5′-triphosphate-induced interleukin-18 release from human monocytes

Abstract: Interleukin (IL)-18 is an important proinflammatory cytokine processed and released from cells of the monocyte lineage by activation of the P2X 7 receptor by extracellular adenosine 5 0 -triphosphate (ATP). We examined if a loss-of-function polymorphism of the human P2X 7 receptor (glutamic acid-496 to alanine) impairs this process. Using a whole blood-based assay, ATP-induced release of IL-18 from homozygous subjects after 120 min incubation with ATP was 42% of that from wildtype subjects. Moreover, the level… Show more

“…Polymorphisms that have been identified within the coding region of the human P2X7 receptor have a wide range of outcomes, such as gain-of-function [81], loss-of-function [82,83], impairment of cytokine release [84,85], and altered cell death [86]. The relatively common Glu496Ala polymorphism results in reduced pore-forming ability [82] without altering channel function [87], whereas the Ile568Asn polymorphism prevents normal channel trafficking and function [88].…”

“…Significantly, similar polymorphic variations of the human P2X7R have been shown to attenuate ATPinduced secretion of IL-1␤ and IL-18 from monocytes isolated from different human subjects (53,54).…”

“…Glu-496 to Ala substitution was not associated with reduction of cell surface expression of P2X 7 protein in lymphocytes, and loss-of-function was confirmed in recombinant human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells expressing the mutated Glu-496 to Ala receptor (10). More recently, the Glu-496 to Ala polymorphism was shown to impair ATP-mediated immune responses such as the killing of mycobacteria by human macrophages and the release of IL-1␤ and IL-18 from human monocytes (11)(12)(13). A T to A polymorphism in position 1729 (1729 TϾA) inducing the Ile-568 to Asn change has been shown to reduce P2X 7 R function by preventing correct intracellular trafficking and localization to the plasma membrane (14).…”
