Abstract
The level of adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity increases in pathological effusions. Therefore, the concentration of its substrate, anti-inflammatory adenosine, decreases, thereby aggravating inflammation. Hence, the quest for ADA inhibiting compounds is an actual problem in medicine and pharmacology. This work describes the inhibition of bovine ADA by new synthesized piperazine compounds. 15 compounds were screened; IC50 values for 5 more potent ones of them were between 3.4 and 98.6 μg/ml. The inhibition of activity of intracellular and ecto- forms of ADA by the most effective "compound 1" was of competitive nature. For these two forms of enzyme, the inhibition constants, Ki (1.5 and 115 μM) and IC50 values (6.5 and 480 μM), respectively, differed by nearly two orders. The constant of bimolecular interaction KSV between "compound 1" and the tryptophan residues in ADA was estimated in fluorescence quenching study as of 0.145 ± 0.027 μM. Finally, the molecular interactions between "compound 1" and the bovine enzyme ADA were highlighted through molecular docking studies.

Plasma Adenosine Deaminase (ADA)-1 and -2 Demonstrate Robust Ontogeny Across the First Four Months of Human Life. Front Immunol 2021; 12:578700.

Abstract
Background Human adenosine deaminases (ADAs) modulate the immune response: ADA1 via metabolizing adenosine, a purine metabolite that inhibits pro-inflammatory and Th1 cytokine production, and the multi-functional ADA2, by enhancing T-cell proliferation and monocyte differentiation. Newborns are relatively deficient in ADA1 resulting in elevated plasma adenosine concentrations and a Th2/anti-inflammatory bias compared to adults. Despite the growing recognition of the role of ADAs in immune regulation, little is known about the ontogeny of ADA concentrations. Methods In a subgroup of the EPIC002-study, clinical data and plasma samples were collected from 540 Gambian infants at four time-points: day of birth; first week of life; one month of age; and four months of age. Concentrations of total extracellular ADA, ADA1, and ADA2 were measured by chromogenic assay and evaluated in relation to clinical data. Plasma cytokines/chemokine were measured across the first week of life and correlated to ADA concentrations. Results ADA2 demonstrated a steady rise across the first months of life, while ADA1 concentration significantly decreased 0.79-fold across the first week then increased 1.4-fold by four months of life. Males demonstrated significantly higher concentrations of ADA2 (1.1-fold) than females at four months; newborns with early-term (37 to <39 weeks) and late-term (≥41 weeks) gestational age demonstrated significantly higher ADA1 at birth (1.1-fold), and those born to mothers with advanced maternal age (≥35 years) had lower plasma concentrations of ADA2 at one month (0.93-fold). Plasma ADA1 concentrations were positively correlated with plasma CXCL8 during the first week of life, while ADA2 concentrations correlated positively with TNFα, IFNγ and CXCL10, and negatively with IL-6 and CXCL8. Conclusions The ratio of plasma ADA2/ADA1 concentration increased during the first week of life, after which both ADA1 and ADA2 increased across the first four months of life suggesting a gradual development of Th1/Th2 balanced immunity. Furthermore, ADA1 and ADA2 were positively correlated with cytokines/chemokines during the first week of life. Overall, ADA isoforms demonstrate robust ontogeny in newborns and infants but further mechanistic studies are needed to clarify their roles in early life immune development and the correlations with sex, gestational age, and maternal age that were observed.

Reversible binding of hemoglobin to band 3 constitutes the molecular switch that mediates O2 regulation of erythrocyte properties. Blood 2016; 128:2708-2716. [PMID: 27688804 DOI: 10.1182/blood-2016-01-692079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 62] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2016] [Accepted: 09/20/2016] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Functional studies have shown that the oxygenation state of the erythrocyte regulates many important pathways, including glucose metabolism, membrane mechanical stability, and cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release. Deoxyhemoglobin (deoxyHb), but not oxyhemoglobin, binds avidly and reversibly to band 3, the major erythrocyte membrane protein. Because band 3 associates with multiple metabolic, solute transport, signal transduction, and structural proteins, the hypothesis naturally arises that the O2-dependent regulation of erythrocyte properties might be mediated by the reversible association of deoxyHb with band 3. To explore whether the band 3-deoxyHb interaction constitutes a "molecular switch" for regulating erythrocyte biology, we have generated transgenic mice with mutations in the deoxyHb-binding domain of band 3. One strain of mouse contains a "humanized" band 3 in which the N-terminal 45 residues of mouse band 3 are replaced by the homologous sequence from human band 3, including the normal human band 3 deoxyHb-binding site. The second mouse contains the same substitution as the first, except the deoxyHb site on band 3 (residues 12-23) has been deleted. Comparison of these animals with wild-type mice demonstrates that the following erythrocyte properties are controlled by the O2-dependent association of hemoglobin with band 3: (1) assembly of a glycolytic enzyme complex on the erythrocyte membrane which is associated with a shift in glucose metabolism between the pentose phosphate pathway and glycolysis, (2) interaction of ankyrin with band 3 and the concomitant regulation of erythrocyte membrane stability, and (3) release of ATP from the red cell which has been linked to vasodilation.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of Syzygium cumini leaf extract (ASc), on Adenosine deaminase (ADA) and Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activities, and also on oxidative stress parameters in erythrocytes hemolysates (RBCs) and erythrocytes membranes (ghosts) from type 2 diabetics patients (Type 2 DM) under in vitro conditions. Non protein thiol groups (NP-SH), AChE, Catalase (CAT) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) activities were measure in RBCs. Further, ADA activity, Thiobarbituric Acid-Reactive Substances (TBARS) levels and protein thiol groups (P-SH) were estimated in ghosts. Also, P-SH and Vitamin C (VIT C) were measure in plasma sample. The results demonstrated that ADA and AChE activities, besides TBARS levels were higher in erythrocytes of Type 2 DM, while SOD activity and NP-SH levels were decreased when compared to control group. ASc, in vitro, reduced ADA and AChE activities and some parameters of oxidative stress. Furthermore, we observed correlations between VIT C and P-SH levels, ADA activity and P-SH levels, as well as NP-SH and TBARS levels in diabetics. The results suggest that ASc in vitro is able to promote the reduction of inflammation and oxidative stress parameters, and act against biochemical changes occurring in Diabetes mellitus (DM).

Abstract
Uric acid and allantoin are the key compounds of purine nucleotide catabolism formed in liver and many other organs of the rat. We observed that, after administration of 14C-formate, incorporation of radioactivity into uric acid and allantoin is not similar, as one would expect. The phenomenon was demonstrated to be specific to liver and perfused liver, and not to other organs such as heart, jejunal mucosa, lung, spleen, and kidney. To interpret these results, the specific radioactivity of uric acid and allantoin in rat liver were analysed comparatively, after administration of the following labelled precursors: 14C-glycine, 14C-formate, 14C-hypoxanthine, 14C-uric acid and 14C-adenine. After administration of 14C-formate the specific radioactivity of allantoin was higher than that of uric acid and the same behavior was observed after 14C-uric acid and 14C-hypoxanthine, but not after 14C-glycine and 14C-adenine administration. The results indicate that the rate of their incorporation into uric acid and allantoin, and the subsequent export of these compounds into serum, can only partially explain the observed phenomenon, while the presence of different pools of uric acid and allantoin may give a complete explanation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infections and hypotension are serious complications that develop during hemodialysis (HD) treatment. Adenosine (ADO), a strong hypotensive and immunosuppressive agent, may participate in these two HD complications, because high concentrations of ADO metabolites are found in dialyzed human plasma. ADO, which is released by endothelial cells, is quickly transformed into inosine (INO) by plasmatic ADO deaminase (ADA) and mononuclear cell ADO deaminase (MCADA). In plasma, the degradation of ADO into INO and its uptake by red blood cells (RBC) are both very rapid, resulting in the short half-life of ADO in blood. METHODS Using liquid chromatography, we evaluated ADO and INO plasma concentrations before and after HD session. RESULTS Before the HD session, ADO and INO plasma concentrations were higher in hemodialyzed patients than in controls and in peritoneally dialyzed patients. At the end of the HD session, ADO plasma concentration was increased. ADO plasma concentration for the undialyzed patients was in the same range as that of the controls. Before HD, ADA activity was higher in hemodialyzed patients (559 +/- 349 IU) than in controls (219 +/- 48 IU), and the activity rose during the session (665 +/- 135 IU). ADA activity in the undialyzed patients (222 +/- 80 IU) was in the same range as that of the controls (219 +/- 48 IU). Before the HD session, the MCADA activity (247 +/- 144 IU) was lower than in controls (624 +/- 99 IU). HD did not modify ADO RBC uptake. ADO inhibited mononuclear cell proliferation and interferon-gamma production in humans. Finally, as much as 50 microM INO does not inhibit ADO uptake by RBC and does not modify ADA and MCADA activities. CONCLUSIONS These data indicate that chronic HD inhibited MCADA activity and increased ADO plasma concentration. Both high ADO plasma concentration and low MCADA activity may be involved in dialysis-induced immune system failure and thereby favor infectious diseases.

Abstract
Cape buffalo serum contains xanthine oxidase which generates trypanocidal H(2)O(2) during the catabolism of hypoxanthine and xanthine. The present studies show that xanthine oxidase-dependent trypanocidal activity in Cape buffalo serum was also elicited by purine nucleotides, nucleosides, and bases even though xanthine oxidase did not catabolize those purines. The paradox was explained in part, by the presence in serum of purine nucleoside phosphorylase and adenosine deaminase, that, together with xanthine oxidase, catabolized adenosine, inosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine to uric acid yielding trypanocidal H(2)O(2). In addition, purine catabolism by trypanosomes provided substrates for serum xanthine oxidase and was implicated in the triggering of xanthine oxidase-dependent trypanocidal activity by purines that were not directly catabolized to uric acid in Cape buffalo serum, namely guanosine, guanine, adenine monophosphate, guanosine diphosphate, adenosine 3':5-cyclic monophosphate, and 1-methylinosine. The concentrations of guanosine and guanine that elicited xanthine oxidase-dependent trypanocidal activity were 30-270-fold lower than those of other purines requiring trypanosome-processing which suggests differential processing by the parasites.

Abstract
Adenosine deaminase (ADA, EC 3.5.4.4) is an enzyme of the purine metabolism which has been the object of considerable interest mainly because the congenital defect causes severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). In the last 10 years, ADA, which was considered to be cytosolic, has been found on the cell surface of many cells and, therefore, it can be considered an ecto-enzyme. There is recent evidence about a specific role of ecto-ADA, which is different from that of intracellular ADA. Apart from degrading extracellular adenosine (Ado) or 2'-deoxyadenosine (dAdo), which are toxic for lymphocytes, ecto-ADA has an extraenzymatic function via its interaction with CD26. ADA/CD26 interaction results in co-stimulatory signals in T cells. This co-stimulation is blocked by HIV-1, thus evidencing a role for ecto-ADA in the pathophysiology of AIDS. The fact that, besides CD26, ADA can interact with different cell-surface proteins opens new perspectives in the research for a role of ecto-ADA in the function of the immune system and in the interactions that take place between different cells in the development of the immune system. The most interesting aspect is the possible participation of the ecto-enzyme in cell-to-cell contacts during ontogenesis and maturation of immunocompetent cells.

Abstract
During the last 10 years, adenosine deaminase (ADA), an enzyme considered to be cytosolic, has been found on the cell surface of many cells, therefore it can be considered an ectoenzyme. EctoADA, which seems to be identical to intracellular ADA and has a globular structure, does not interact with membranes but with membrane proteins. Two of these cell surface receptors for ectoADA have been identified: CD26 and A1 adenosine receptors (A1R). Apart from degradation of extracellular adenosine another functional role of ectoADA has been assigned. EctoADA is able to transmit signals when interacting with either CD26 or A1R. In this way, it acts as a co-stimulatory molecule which facilitates a variety of specific signalling events in different cell types. The heterogeneous distribution of the enzyme in the nervous system indicates that ectoADA may be a neuroregulatory molecule. On the other hand, ectoADA might act as a bridge between two different cells thus raising the possibility that it may be important for the development of the nervous system.

Abstract
The actions of adenosine, adenosine deaminase, the adenosine uptake blocker, S-(p-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine, and of the adenosine deaminase inhibitor, erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine, on electrically evoked [3H]acetylcholine release were investigated in rat phrenic nerve-hemidiaphragm preparations. Adenosine deaminase (0.25-2.5 U/ml) increased [3H]acetylcholine release. S-(p-Nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine (3-30 microM) and erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (25 nM-50 microM) caused biphasic effects on [3H]acetylcholine release: at low concentrations S-(p-nitrobenzyl)-6-thiomosine (5 microM) and erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adeNine (50 nM) decreased [3H]acetylcholine release, and at concentrations higher than 10 microM S-(p-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine and 0.5 microM for erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine facilitated [3H]acetylcholine release. Both S-(p-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine-induced inhibition and facilitation of [3H]acetylcholine release resulted from extracellular endogenous adenosine accumulation, because they were blocked after inactivation of endogenous adenosine with adenosine deaminase (0.5 U/ml). The inhibitory actions of both S-(p-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine (5 microM) and erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (50 nM) were antagonized by the A1 adenosine receptor antagonist, 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentylxanthine (2.5 nM), whereas the blockade of A2a adenosine receptors with PD 115,199 (25 nM) prevented the facilitatory effects of S-(p-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine (30 microM) and erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (50 microM). The adenosine deaminase inhibitor, erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (25 nM), potentiated the effect of S-(p-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine (3-30 microM), and this adenosine uptake blocker, when applied at a concentration (3 microM) that by itself was devoid of effect, potentiated both the inhibitory (25 nM) and excitatory (0.5 microM) effects of erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine, on evoked [3H]acetylcholine release. Exogenously applied adenosine (10-500 microM) had biphasic effects similar to those of S-(p-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine and erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine. Adenosine (30 microM) reduction of evoked [3H]acetylcholine release was prevented after pretreatment with 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentylxanthine (2.5 nM); when applied at high concentrations (100-500 microM), adenosine consistently increased evoked [3H]acetylcholine release in a PD 115,199 (25 nM)-sensitive manner. It is concluded that both uptake and deamination are effective in removing extracellular endogenous adenosine that tonically activates both inhibitory (A1) and excitatory (A2a) adenosine receptors, regulating the A1/A2a adenosine receptors' activation balance.

Abstract
The fate of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), AMP, and ADP-ribose supplied to intact human skin fibroblasts was monitored, and the concentrations of intra- and extracellular pyridine and purine compounds were determined by HPLC analysis. Two enzymatic activities affecting extracellular NAD were detected on the plasma membrane, one hydrolyzing the pyrophosphoric bond and yielding nicotinamide mononucleotide (nucleotide pyrophosphatase) and the other cleaving the glycoside link and releasing nicotinamide (NAD-glycohydrolase). No AMP or ADP-ribose was found in the extracellular medium of cells incubated with NAD, the former being completely catabolized to hypoxanthine and the latter degraded to adenine and hypoxanthine.

Abstract
1. Using an extracellular recording technique, we have investigated the site of action of adenosine and muscarine on the rat superior cervical ganglion (SCG). The adenosine-induced hyperpolarization and muscarine-induced depolarization of ganglia were localized to the cell bodies of the ganglia. Responses to muscarine and adenosine were larger when recorded via the internal carotid nerve (ICN) compared with the external carotid nerve. Depression of the response to muscarine by adenosine was similar for both nerve trunks. 2. The effects of adenosine and cyclic nucleotides on the d.c. potential and the depolarization to muscarine were examined by recording via the ICN. Adenosine at concentrations up to 1 mM produced concentration-dependent hyperpolarizations. Hyperpolarization induced by 100 microM adenosine was unaffected by 1 microM tetrodotoxin or the muscarinic M1-receptor antagonist pirenzepine (0.3 microM). In contrast, hyperpolarizations to 100 microM adenosine were significantly reduced by 10 microM 8-phenytheophylline (55 +/- 7 microV vs 15 +/- 9 microV, P < 0.01, n = 4). Two agents known to increase intracellular cAMP, i.e. 8-bromo-cyclic-adenosine-3'-5' monophosphate (8BrcAMP) and isoprenaline, depolarized ganglia. Depolarizations to 100 nM mucarine were significantly depressed by adenosine (100 microM) by 26 +/- 2% (n = 61), but unaltered by 8BrcAMP or cyclic guanosine-3'-5' monophosphate. 3. Dipyridamole and hydroxy-nitro-benzylthioguanosine (inhibitors of adenosine transport) and erythro-6-amino-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (EHNA, an inhibitor of adenosine deaminase), potentiated the depression by adenosine of the response to muscarine, and the hyperpolarization to adenosine respectively. However, there was no evidence to support the hypothesis that there was spontaneous release of endogenous adenosine under the conditions of study, as dipyridamole or EHNA did not alter the control d.c. potential or the depolarization to muscarine. 4. It is concluded that the ability of adenosine to hyperpolarize and depress the response of the rat SCG to muscarine is due to the direct activation of postsynaptic somatodendritic P1-purinoceptors and unlikely to be mediated by an increase in intracellular cAMP. In addition the rat SCG has mechanisms for both the uptake and inactivation of adenosine.

Abstract
Human fibroblast lysosomes, purified on Percoll density gradients, contain an adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity that accounts for approximately 10% of the total ADA activity in GM0010A human fibroblasts. In assays of lysosomal ADA, the conversion of [3H]adenosine into [3H]inosine was proportional to incubation time and the amount of lysosomal material added to reaction mixtures. Maximal activity was observed between pH 7 and 8, and lysosomal ADA displayed a Km of 37 microM for adenosine at 25 degrees C and pH 5.5. Lysosomal ADA was completely inhibited by 2.5 mM Cu2+ or Hg2+ salts, but not by other bivalent cations (Ba2+, Cd2+, Ca2+, Fe2+, Mg2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+). Coformycin (2.5 mM), deoxycoformycin (0.02 mM), 2'-deoxyadenosine (2.5 mM), 6-methylaminopurine riboside (2.5 mM), 2'-3'-isopropylidene-adenosine (2.5 mM) and erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (0.2 mM) inhibited lysosomal ADA by > 97%. In contrast, 2.5 mM S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine and cytosine were poor inhibitors. Nearly all lysosomal ADA activity is eluted as a high-molecular-mass protein (> 200 kDa) just after the void volume on a Sephacryl S-200 column, and is very heat-stable, retaining 70% of its activity after incubation at 65 degrees C for 80 min. We speculate that compartmentalization of ADA within lysosomes would allow deamination of adenosine to occur without competition by adenosine kinase, which could assist in maintaining cellular energy requirements under conditions of nutritional deprivation.

Abstract
Transport of adenine and hypoxanthine in human erythrocytes proceeds via two mechanisms: (1) a common carrier for both nucleobases and (2) unsaturable permeation 4-5-fold faster for adenine for hypoxanthine. The latter process was resistant to inactivation by diazotized sulfanilic acid. Carrier mediated transport of both substrates was investigated using zero-trans and equilibrium exchange protocols. Adenine displayed a much higher affinity for the carrier (Km approximately 5-8 microM) than hypoxanthine (Km approximately 90-120 microM) but maximum fluxes at 25 degrees C were generally 5-10-fold lower for adenine (Vmax approximately 0.6-1.4 pmol/microliters per s) than for hypoxanthine (Vmax approximately 9-11 pmol/microliters per s). The carrier behaved symmetrically with respect to influx and efflux for both substrates. Adenine, but not hypoxanthine reduced carrier mobility more than 10-fold. The mobility of the unloaded carrier, calculated from the kinetic data of either hypoxanthine or adenine transport, was the same thus providing further evidence that these substrates share a common transporter and that their membrane transport is adequately described by the alternating conformation model of carrier-mediated transport.

Abstract
The nucleoside transport activity of human placental syncytiotrophoblast brush-border and basal membrane vesicles was compared. Adenosine and uridine were taken up into an osmotically active space. Adenosine was rapidly metabolized to inosine, metabolism was blocked by preincubating vesicles with 2'-deoxycoformycin, and subsequent adenosine uptake studies were performed in the presence of 2'-deoxycoformycin. Adenosine influx by brush-border membrane vesicles was fitted to a two-component system consisting of a saturable system with apparent Michaelis-Menten kinetics (apparent Km approx. 150 microM) and a linear component. Adenosine uptake by the saturable system was blocked by nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBMPR), dilazep, dipyridamole and other nucleosides. Inhibition by NBMPR was associated with high-affinity binding of NBMPR to the brush-border membrane vesicles (apparent Kd 0.98 +/- 0.21 nM). Binding of NBMPR to these sites was blocked by adenosine, inosine, uridine, thymidine, dilazep and dipyridamole, and the respective apparent Ki values were 0.23 +/- 0.012, 0.36 +/- 0.035, 0.78 +/- 0.1, 0.70 +/- 0.12 (mM), and 0.12 and 4.2 +/- 1.4 (nM). In contrast, adenosine influx by basal membrane vesicles was low (less than 10% of the rate observed with brush-border membrane vesicles under similar conditions), and hence no quantitative studies of adenosine uptake could be performed with these vesicles. Nevertheless, high-affinity NBMPR binding sites were demonstrated in basal membrane vesicles with similar properties to those in brush-border membrane vesicles (apparent Kd 1.05 +/- 0.13 nM and apparent Ki values for adenosine, inosine, uridine, thymidine, dilazep and dipyridamole of 0.14 +/- 0.045, 0.54 +/- 0.046, 1.26 +/- 0.20, 1.09 +/- 0.18 mM and 0.14 and 3.7 +/- 0.5 nM, respectively). Exposure of both membrane vesicles to UV light in the presence of [3H]NBMPR resulted in covalent labeling of a membrane protein(s) with a broad apparent Mr on SDS gel electropherograms of 77,000-45,000, similar to that previously reported for many other tissues, including human erythrocytes. We conclude that the maternal (brush-border) and fetal (basal) surfaces of the human placental syncytiotrophoblast possess broad-specificity, facilitated-diffusion, NBMPR-sensitive nucleoside transporters.
