Confluent
monolayers of immunodissected rabbit connecting tubule and cortical
collecting duct cells, cultured on permeable supports, were used to
study the effect of adenosine on net apical-to-basolateral Ca2+ transport. Apical, but not
basolateral, adenosine increased this transport dose dependently from
48 ± 3 to 110 ± 4 nmol · h
1 · cm
2.
Although a concomitant increase in cAMP formation suggested the
involvement of an A2 receptor, the
A2 agonist CGS-21680 did not
stimulate Ca2+ transport, while
readily increasing cAMP. By contrast, the
A1 agonist
N6-cyclopentyladenosine
(CPA) maximally stimulated Ca2+
transport without significantly affecting cAMP. Adenosine-stimulated transport was effectively inhibited by the
A1 antagonist
1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopenthylxanthine but not the
A2 antagonist
3,7-dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine, providing additional evidence for the
involvement of an A1 receptor.
Both abolishment of the adenosine-induced transient increase in
intracellular Ca2+ concentration
by
1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid and downregulation of protein kinase C (PKC) by prolonged phorbol
ester treatment were without effect on adenosine-stimulated Ca2+ transport. The data presented
suggest that adenosine interacts with an apical
A1 receptor to stimulate
Ca2+ transport via a hitherto
unknown pathway that does not involve cAMP formation, PKC activation,
and/or Ca2+ mobilization.
