Participation of cAMP in a signal-transduction pathway relating erythrocyte deformation to ATP release

Abstract: Previously, we reported that red blood cells (RBCs) of rabbits and humans release ATP in response to mechanical deformation and that this release of ATP requires the activity of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). It was reported that cAMP, acting through a cAMP-dependent protein kinase, PKA, is an activator of CFTR. Here we investigate the hypothesis that cAMP stimulates ATP release from RBCs. Incubation of human and rabbit RBCs with the direct activator of adenylyl cyclase, forsko… Show more

“…Within the glomerular capillaries, red and white blood cells alike are squeezed through these small capillaries and deformed in the process. Sprague and coworkers studied deformationinduced adenosine 5′ triphosphate (ATP) release in erythrocytes for many years, as have others [1][2][3]. With regard to mechanically released ATP, ATP and their metabolites are present in plasma at finite amounts, and the amount of nucleotides and nucleosides freely filtered at the glomerulus is likely to be low to negligible.…”

“…The pharmacological profile of this channel shows a striking resemblance to that of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), 1 a cAMP-regulated chloride channel that is mutated in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) (7,8). Functional expression of CFTR in red blood cells is suggested also by the failure of CF erythrocytes to perform deformationinduced and cAMP-induced ATP release (9,10). In the present study, direct evidence in support of this concept was obtained by patch clamp measurements of whole-cell chloride currents in CF and non-CF red blood cells.…”

“…Several reports suggest that the RBC acts as a sensor for hypoxia and different mechanisms have been suggested by which the deoxygenated RBC stimulates vasodilatation [98][99][100][101]. RBCs contain millimolar amounts of ATP and possess the membrane-bound glycolytic enzymes necessary for its production [93,102,103]. ATP is released in response to reductions in oxygen tension and pH [99,100].…”
