Alteration of the purinergic modulation of enteric neurotransmission in the mouse ileum during chronic intestinal inflammation. (1/122)

1. The effect of chronic intestinal inflammation on the purinergic modulation of cholinergic neurotransmission was studied in the mouse ileum. Chronic intestinal inflammation was induced by infection of mice with the parasite Schistosoma mansoni during 16 weeks. 2. S. mansoni infection induced a chronic inflammatory response in the small intestine, which was characterised by intestinal granuloma formation, increased intestinal wall thickness, blunted mucosal villi and an enhanced activity of myeloperoxidase. 3. In control ileum and in chronically inflamed ileum, electrical field stimulation (EFS) of longitudinal muscle strips induced frequency-dependent contractions that were abolished by tetrodotoxin (TTX) and atropine. Carbachol induced dose-dependent contractions that were not affected by TTX but abolished by atropine. 4. In control ileum, adenosine and ATP dose-dependently inhibited the contractions to EFS. Theophylline and 8-phenyltheophylline, P(1) and A(1) receptor antagonists respectively, prevented this inhibitory effect of adenosine and ATP. PPADS, DMPX and MRS 1220, antagonists of P(2), A(2) and A(3) receptors, respectively, did not prevent this inhibitory effect of adenosine and ATP. Adenosine and ATP did not affect the contractions to carbachol. 5. The inhibitory effect of adenosine and ATP on contractions to EFS in control ileum was mimicked by the stable adenosine analogue methyladenosine and by the A(1)-receptor agonist N(6)-cyclohexyladenosine, but not by the A3 receptor agonist 2-Cl IB-MECA or by the ATP analogues alphabeta-methylene-ATP and ADPbetaS. The inhibitory effect of adenosine on contractions to EFS was lost after prolonged (90 min) treatment of control ileum with methyladenosine (100 micro M). 6. In chronically inflamed ileum, adenosine, methyladenosine, N(6)-cyclohexyladenosine and ATP all failed to inhibit the cholinergic nerve-mediated contractions to EFS. Also theophylline, 8-phenyltheophylline, PPADS, DMPX and MRS 1220 had no effect on the contractions to EFS and carbachol. The loss of effect of adenosine and ATP was still evident after 52 weeks of infection. 7. These results indicate that in physiological conditions neuronal adenosine A(1) receptors modulate cholinergic nerve activity in the mouse ileum. However, during chronic intestinal inflammation, this purinergic modulation of cholinergic nerve activity is impaired. This suggests that chronic intestinal inflammation leads to a dysfunction of specific neuronal regulatory mechanisms in the enteric nervous system. (+info)

Comparison of effects of MgCl2 and Gpp(NH)p on antagonist and agonist radioligand binding to adenosine A1 receptors. (2/122)

AIM: To investigate modulation of antagonist and agonist binding to adenosine A1 receptors by MgCl2 and 5 -guanylimidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p) using rat brain membranes and the A1 antagonist [3H]-8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine ([3H]DPCPX) and the A1 agonist [3H]-2-chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine ([3H]CCPA). METHODS: Parallel saturation and inhibition studies were performed using well-characterised radioligand binding assays and a Brandel Cell Harvester. RESULTS: MgCl2 produced a concentration-dependent decrease (44%), whereas Gpp(NH)p increased [3H]DPCPX binding (19%). In [3H]DPCPX competition studies, agonist affinity was 1.5-14.6-fold higher and 4.6-10-fold lower in the presence of 10 mmol/L MgCl2 and 10 micromol/L Gpp(NH)p respectively; antagonist affinity was unaffected. The decrease in agonist affinity with increasing Gpp(NH)p concentrations was due to a reduction in the proportion of binding to the high affinity receptor state. In contrast to [3H]DPCPX, MgCl2 produced a concentration-dependent increase (72%) and Gpp(NH)p a decrease (85%) in [3H]CCPA binding. Using [3H]CCPA, agonist affinities were 5-17-fold higher than those for [3H]DPCPX, consistent with binding only to the high affinity receptor state. Agonist affinity was 1.3-10.5-fold higher and 2.4-4.7-fold lower on adding MgCl2 or Gpp(NH)p respectively; antagonist affinities were as for [3H]DPCPX. CONCLUSION: The inconsistencies surrounding the effects of MgCl2 and guanine nucleotides on radioligand binding to adenosine A1 receptors were systematically examined. The effects of MgCl2 and Gpp(NH)p on agonist binding to A1 receptors are consistent with their roles in stimulating GTP-hydrolysis at the G-protein alpha-subunit and in blocking formation of the high affinity agonist-receptor-G protein complex.

Involvement of adenosine A1 and A2A receptors in the adenosinergic modulation of the discriminative-stimulus effects of cocaine and methamphetamine in rats. (3/122)

Adenosine, by acting on adenosine A1 and A2A receptors, is known to antagonistically modulate dopaminergic neurotransmission. We have recently reported that nonselective adenosine receptor antagonists (caffeine and 3,7-dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine) can partially substitute for the discriminative-stimulus effects of methamphetamine. In the present study, by using more selective compounds, we investigated the involvement of A1 and A2A receptors in the adenosinergic modulation of the discriminative-stimulus effects of both cocaine and methamphetamine. The effects of the A1 receptor agonist N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA; 0.01-0.1 mg/kg) and antagonist 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dimethylxanthine (CPT; 1.3-23.7 mg/kg) and the A2A receptor agonist 2-p-(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino-5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine hydrochloride (CGS 21680; 0.03-0.18 mg/kg) and antagonist 3-(3-hydroxypropyl)-8-(3-methoxystyryl)-7-methyl-1-propargylxanthin phosphate disodium salt (MSX-3; 1-56 mg/kg) were evaluated in rats trained to discriminate either 1 mg/kg methamphetamine or 10 mg/kg cocaine from saline under a fixed-ratio 10 schedule of food presentation. The A1 and A2A receptor antagonists (CPT and MSX-3) both produced high levels of drug-lever selection when substituted for either methamphetamine or cocaine and significantly shifted dose-response curves of both psychostimulants to the left. Unexpectedly, the A2A receptor agonist CGS 21680 also produced drug-appropriate responding (although at lower levels) when substituted for the cocaine-training stimulus, and both CGS 21680 and the A1 receptor agonist CPA significantly shifted the cocaine dose-response curve to the left. In contrast, both agonists did not produce significant levels of drug-lever selection when substituted for the methamphetamine-training stimulus and failed to shift the methamphetamine dose-response curve. Therefore, adenosine A1 and A2A receptors appear to play important but differential roles in the modulation of the discriminative-stimulus effects of methamphetamine and cocaine. (+info)

Adenosine A1 receptor agonists block the neuropathological changes in rat retrosplenial cortex after administration of the NMDA receptor antagonist dizocilpine. (4/122)

Noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist dizocilpine ((+)-MK-801) is known to induce neurotoxicity in rat retrosplenial cortex after systemic administration. The present study was undertaken to examine the effects of adenosine A(1) receptor agonists on the neurotoxicity in rat retrosplenial cortex after administration of dizocilpine. Pretreatment with adenosine A(1) receptor agonists, 2-chloro-N(6)-cyclopentyladenosine (CCPA) (0.1, 0.3, 1, or 3 mg/kg, intraperitoneally (i.p.)), or N(6)-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA) (1, 3, or 10 mg/kg, i.p.), attenuated neurotoxicity by dizocilpine (0.5 mg/kg, i.p), in a dose-dependent manner. Coadministration with adenosine A(1) receptor antagonist, 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentylxanthine (DPCPX; 3 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly blocked the protective effects of CCPA for dizocilpine-induced neurotoxicity. Furthermore, pretreatment with CCPA (3 mg/kg) attenuated significantly the dizocilpine-induced expression of HSP-70 protein, which is known as a sensitive marker of reversible neuronal damage, and coadministration with DPCPX (3 mg/kg) blocked the inhibitory effects of CCPA for marked expression of HSP-70 protein by administration of dizocilpine. Moreover, pretreatment with CCPA (3 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly suppressed the increase of extracellular acetylcholine (ACh) levels in the retrosplenial cortex by administration of dizocilpine (0.5 mg/kg). In contrast, local perfusion of CCPA (1 microM) into the retrosplenial cortex via the dialysis probe did not alter the ACh levels by administration of dizocilpine (0.5 mg/kg), suggesting that the locus of action of CCPA is not in the retrosplenial cortex. These findings suggest that adenosine A(1) receptors agonists could protect against neuropathological changes in rat retrosplenial cortex after administration of the NMDA receptor antagonist dizocilpine.

Allosteric enhancers of A1 adenosine receptors increase receptor-G protein coupling and counteract Guanine nucleotide effects on agonist binding. (5/122)

Endogenous ligands of G protein-coupled receptors bind to orthosteric sites that are topologically distinct from allosteric sites. Certain aminothiophenes such as (2-amino-4,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)-[3-(trifluromethyl)-phenyl]-methanone (PD81,723) and 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-benzo[b]thiophen-3-yl)-biphenyl-4-yl-methanone (ATL525) are positive allosteric regulators, or enhancers, of the human A1 adenosine receptor (A1AR). In equilibrium binding assays, 125I-N6-aminobenzyladenosine (125I-ABA) binds to two affinity states of A1AR with KD-high (0.33 microM) and KD-low ( approximately 10 nM). Enhancers have little effect on KD-high but convert all A1AR binding sites to the high-affinity state. Enhancers decrease the potency of guanosine 5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate (GTPgammaS) as an inhibitor of agonist binding by 100-fold and increase agonist-stimulated guanine nucleotide exchange. The association of 125I-ABA to high-affinity receptors on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-hA1 membranes does not follow theoretical single-site association kinetics but is approximated by a bi-exponential equation with t1/2 values of 1.85 and 12.8 min. Allosteric enhancers selectively increase the number of slow binding sites, possibly by stabilizing newly formed receptor-G protein complexes. A new rapid assay method scores enhancer activity on a scale from 0 to 100 based on their ability to prevent the rapid dissociation of 125I-ABA from A1AR in response to GTPgammaS. Compared with PD81,723, ATL525 (100 microM) scores higher (27 versus 79) and has less antagonist activity. ATL525 functionally enhances A1 signaling to inhibit cAMP accumulation in CHO-hA1 cells. These data suggest that simultaneously binding orthosteric and allosteric enhancer ligands convert the A1AR from partly to fully coupled to G proteins and prevents rapid uncoupling upon binding of GTPgammaS.

Role of direct RhoA-phospholipase D1 interaction in mediating adenosine-induced protection from cardiac ischemia. (6/122)

Activation of adenosine A1 or A3 receptors protects heart cells from ischemia-induced injury. The A3 receptor signals via RhoA and phospholipase D (PLD) to induce cardioprotection. The objective of the study was to investigate how RhoA activates PLD to achieve the anti-ischemic effect of adenosine A3 receptors. In an established cardiac myocyte model of preconditioning using the cultured chick embryo heart cells, overexpression of the RhoA-noninteracting PLD1 mutant I870R selectively blocked the A3 agonist (Cl-IBMECA, 10 nM)-induced cardioprotection. I870R caused a significantly higher percentage of cardiac cells killed in A3 agonist-treated than in A1 agonist (CCPA, 10 nM)-treated myocytes (ANOVA and posttest comparison, P<0.01). Consistent with its inhibitory effect on the PLD activity, I870R attenuated the Cl-IBMECA-mediated PLD activation. Cl-IBMECA caused a 41 +/- 15% increase in PLD activity in mock-transfected myocytes (P<0.01, paired t test) while having only a slight stimulatory effect on the PLD activity in I870R-transfected cells. To further test the anti-ischemic role of a direct RhoA-PLD1 interaction, atrial cardiac myocytes were rendered null for native adenosine receptors by treatment with irreversible A1 antagonist m-DITC-XAC and were selectively transfected with the human adenosine A1 or A3 receptor cDNA individually or they were cotransfected with cDNAs encoding either receptor plus I870R. I870R preferentially inhibited the human A3 receptor-mediated protection from ischemia. The RhoA-noninteracting PLD1 mutant caused a significantly higher percentage of cardiac cells killed in myocytes cotransfected with the human A3 receptor than in those cells expressing the human A1 receptor (ANOVA and posttest comparison, P<0.01). The present data provided the first demonstration of a novel physiological role for the direct RhoA-PLD1 interaction, that of potent protection from cardiac ischemia. The study further supported the concept that a divergent signaling mechanism mediates the anti-ischemic effect of adenosine A1 and A3 receptors. (+info)

A1 and A2A adenosine receptor modulation of alpha 1-adrenoceptor-mediated contractility in human cultured prostatic stromal cells. (7/122)

1. This study investigated the possibility that adenosine receptors modulate the alpha(1)-adrenoceptor-mediated contractility of human cultured prostatic stromal cells (HCPSC). 2. The nonselective adenosine receptor agonist, 5'-N-ethylcarboxamido-adenosine (NECA; 10 nm-10 microm), and the A(1) adenosine receptor selective agonist, cyclopentyladenosine (CPA; 10 nm-10 microm), elicited significant contractions in HCPSC, with maximum contractile responses of 18+/-3% and 17+/-2% reduction in initial cell length, respectively. 3. In the presence of a threshold concentration of phenylephrine (PE) (100 nm), CPA (1 nm-10 microm) caused contractions, with an EC(50) of 124+/-12 nm and maximum contractile response of 37+/-4%. The A(1) adenosine receptor-selective antagonist 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX 100 nm) blocked this effect. In the presence of DPCPX (100 nm), NECA (1 nm-10 microm) inhibited contractions elicited by a submaximal concentration of PE (10 microm), with an IC(50) of 48+/-2 nm. The A(2A) adenosine receptor-selective antagonist 4-(2-[7-amino-2-[furyl][1,2,4]triazolo[2,3-alpha][1,3,5,]triazin-5-yl amino]ethyl)phenol (Zm241385 100 nm) blocked this effect. 4. In BCECF-AM (10 microm)-loaded cells, both CPA (100 pM-1 microm) and NECA (100 pm-10 microm) elicited concentration-dependent decreases in intracellular pH (pH(i)), with EC(50) values of 3.1+/-0.3 and 6.0+/-0.3 nm, respectively. The response to NECA was blocked by Zm241385 (100 nm; apparent pK(B) of 9.4+/-0.4), but not by DPCPX (100 nm). The maximum response to CPA was blocked by DPCPX (100 nm), and unaffected by Zm241385 (100 nm). 5. NECA (10 nm-10 microm) alone did not increase [(3)H]-cAMP in HCPSC. In the presence of DPCPX (100 nm), NECA (10 nm-10 microm) caused a concentration dependent increase in [(3)H]-cAMP, with an EC(50) of 1.2+/-0.1 microm. This response was inhibited by Zm241385 (100 nm). CPA (10 nm-10 microm) had no effect on cAMP, in the presence or absence of forskolin (1 microm). 6. These findings are consistent with a role for adenosine receptors in the modulation of adrenoceptor-mediated contractility in human prostate-derived cells. (+info)

A1 adenosine receptor upregulation and activation attenuates neuroinflammation and demyelination in a model of multiple sclerosis. (8/122)

The neuromodulator adenosine regulates immune activation and neuronal survival through specific G-protein-coupled receptors expressed on macrophages and neurons, including the A1 adenosine receptor (A1AR). Here we show that A1AR null (A1AR-/-) mice developed a severe progressive-relapsing form of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) compared with their wild-type (A1AR+/+) littermates. Worsened demyelination, axonal injury, and enhanced activation of microglia/macrophages were observed in A1AR-/- animals. In addition, spinal cords from A1AR-/- mice demonstrated increased proinflammatory gene expression during EAE, whereas anti-inflammatory genes were suppressed compared with A1AR+/+ animals. Macrophages from A1AR-/- animals exhibited increased expression of the proinflammatory genes, interleukin-1beta, and matrix metalloproteinase-12 on immune activation when matched with A1AR+/+ control cells. A1AR-/- macrophage-derived soluble factors caused significant oligodendrocyte cytotoxicity compared with wild-type controls. The A1AR was downregulated in microglia in A1AR+/+ mice during EAE accompanied by neuroinflammation, which recapitulated findings in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Caffeine treatment augmented A1AR expression on microglia, with ensuing reduction of EAE severity, which was further enhanced by concomitant treatment with the A1AR agonist, adenosine amine congener. Thus, modulation of neuroinflammation by the A1AR represents a novel mechanism that provides new therapeutic opportunities for MS and other demyelinating diseases. (+info)
