Adenosine in the Thymus

Abstract: Adenosine is an ancient extracellular signaling molecule that regulates various biological functions via activating four G-protein-coupled receptors, A1, A2A, A2B, and A3 adenosine receptors. As such, several studies have highlighted a role for adenosine signaling in affecting the T cell development in the thymus. Recent studies indicate that adenosine is produced in the context of apoptotic thymocyte clearance. This review critically discusses the involvement of adenosine and its receptors in the complex inte… Show more

“…It is well known that adenosine acts as an extracellular signaling molecule via activation of G-protein-coupled receptors 8,53 and regulates various biological functions in the thymus 4,[35][36][37][38] , including cAMP-induced thymocyte apoptosis 41,54 . However, we were not able to correlate the reduced thymus cellularity in PEG-ADA-treated mice to the persistent high concentration of Ado.…”

“…Ado accumulation does not interfere with thymocyte metabolism. Several studies have highlighted that Ado affects T cell development within the thymus 35 . It has been shown that Ado causes defective TCR signaling 4,36 , inhibits T cell activation and expansion by interfering with the progression of cell mitosis 37,38 and triggers cAMP-induced thymocyte apoptosis through DNA cleavage [39][40][41] .…”

“…cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) и протеинкиназа А. В нейтрофилах cAMP сильно задерживает развитие апоптоза [75], хотя в Т-лимфоцитах [76,77] и клетках лейкемических линий [78,79] cAMP индуцирует этот процесс. Основными cAMP-зависимыми белками являются протеинкиназа А и EPAC (exchange protein activated by cAMP), -фактор активации ГТФазы Rap1.…”

“…These protective functions of adenosine result in its classi ication as a "retaliatory" or "homeostatic" cellular modulator (Jarvis, 2019) . Adenosine (C10H13N5O4) endogenous purine nucleoside molecule is formed intra-and extracellularly by dephosphorylation of ATP (Kazemzadeh-Narbat et al, 2015), with irmly controlled concentration that regulate its intense and diverse biological abilities (Köröskényi et al, 2017;Palmer and Trevethick, 2009). It induces vasodilation, increases oxygen supply and improves blood low in the heart, skeletal muscle, brain, oral mucosa, gingival, tongue and salivary glands.…”
