Extracellular guanosine regulates extracellular adenosine levels.
The aim of this investigation was to test the hypothesis that extracellular guanosine regulates extracellular adenosine levels. Rat preglomerular vascular smooth muscle cells were incubated with adenosine, guanosine, or both. Guanosine (30 μmol/l) per se had little effect on extracellular adenosine levels. Extracellular adenosine levels 1 h after addition of adenosine (3 μmol/l) were 0.125 ± 0....
متن کاملDueling nucleosides: cross-regulation of extracellular adenosine by guanosine. Focus on "Extracellular guanosine regulates extracellular adenosine levels".
IN ADDITION TO SERVING as components of nucleic acids and central players in intracellular energy metabolism, adenosineand guanosine-based metabolites play critical but distinct roles in signal transduction processes. ATP has two major functions in intracellular signaling. It serves as the principal nucleotide phosphate donor for the myriad protein kinases that act as molecular switches for mos...
متن کاملGuanosine regulates adenosine levels in the kidney
In cell culture, extracellular guanosine increases extracellular adenosine by attenuating the disposition of extracellular adenosine (American Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology 304: C406-C421, 2013). The goal of this investigation was to determine whether this "guanosine-adenosine mechanism" is operative in an intact organ. Twenty-seven isolated, perfused mouse kidneys were subjected to m...
متن کاملExtracellular adenosine regulates naive T cell development and peripheral maintenance
Adenosine produced as a byproduct of metabolic activity is present in all tissues and produces dose-dependent suppression of TCR signaling. Naive T cell maintenance depends on inhibition of TCR signals by environmental sensors, which are yet to be fully defined. We produced mice with a floxed adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) gene, Adora2a, and show that either global A2AR deletion or cre-mediated ...
متن کاملRole of adenosine A(1) receptors in modulating extracellular adenosine levels.
The purpose of this investigation was to test the hypothesis that A(1) receptors modulate extracellular levels of adenosine in cardiovascular tissues. Rat cardiac fibroblasts and human aortic vascular smooth muscle cells were cultured to confluence and various pharmacological agents were applied to the cultures. The extracellular fluid was extracted and adenosine concentrations were measured by...
