High homocysteine levels prevent via H2S the CoCl2‐induced alteration of lymphocyte viability

Abstract: High homocysteine (HCy) levels are associated with lymphocyte‐mediated inflammatory responses that are sometimes in turn related to hypoxia. Because adenosine is a potent lymphocyte suppressor produced in hypoxic conditions and shares metabolic pathways with HCy, we addressed the influence of high HCy levels on the hypoxia‐induced, adenosine‐mediated, alteration of lymphocyte viability. We treated mitogen‐stimulated human lymphocytes isolated from healthy individuals and the human lymphoma T‐cell line CEM with… Show more

“…This relationship was confirmed in cellulo. These results are in agreement with our previous observation that A 2A R cell expression in hypoxia condition is down‐regulated by H 2 S produced from HCy via the transsulfuration pathway . In adenosinergic signalling, exoenzymes CD39 and CD73 are expressed in cancer exosomes where they produce adenosine, which inhibits T cell functions in tumour environment .…”

“…A 2A R expression in CEM T cells increased under stress hypoxia (42.4% pixels) and returned to control value in the presence of HCy (28.6% pixels). Hypoxia stress was confirmed by about fifty per cent of cell loss as compared to control (A 550 nm = 0.8 ± 0.1 vs 1.8 ± 0.2), which was reversed by HCy (A 550 nm = 1.7 ± 0.2) as assessed by the MTT assay . The highest content of A 2A R in EV (38.4% pixels) matched with the lowest cellular content of A 2A R (28.6% pixels) and, conversely, the lower one in EV was the highest in cells (30.2% vs 42.4% pixels, respectively).…”
