Abstract
Metabolic homeostasis in animals depends critically on evolved mechanisms by which red blood cell (RBC) hemoglobin (Hb) senses oxygen (O2) need and responds accordingly. The entwined regulation of ATP production and antioxidant systems within the RBC also exploits Hb-based O2-sensitivity to respond to various physiologic and pathophysiologic stresses. O2 offloading, for example, promotes glycolysis in order to generate both 2,3-DPG (a negative allosteric effector of Hb O2 binding) and ATP. Alternatively, generation of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) critical for reducing systems is favored under the oxidizing conditions of O2 abundance. Dynamic control of ATP not only ensures the functional activity of ion pumps and cellular flexibility, but also contributes to the availability of vasoregulatory ATP that can be exported when necessary, for example in hypoxia or upon RBC deformation in microvessels. RBC ATP export in response to hypoxia or deformation dilates blood vessels in order to promote efficient O2 delivery. The ability of RBCs to adapt to the metabolic environment via differential control of these metabolites is impaired in the face of enzymopathies [pyruvate kinase deficiency; glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency], blood banking, diabetes mellitus, COVID-19 or sepsis, and sickle cell disease. The emerging availability of therapies capable of augmenting RBC ATP, including newly established uses of allosteric effectors and metabolite-specific additive solutions for RBC transfusates, raises the prospect of clinical interventions to optimize or correct RBC function via these metabolite delivery mechanisms.

Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 2021; 320:H1055-H1065. [PMID: 33449849 PMCID: PMC7988759 DOI: 10.1152/ajpheart.00651.2020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2020] [Revised: 01/07/2021] [Accepted: 01/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Pannexin 1 (Panx1) channels export ATP and may contribute to increased concentration of the vasodilator ATP in plasma during hypoxia in vivo. We hypothesized that Panx1 channels and associated ATP export contribute to hypoxic vasodilation, a mechanism that facilitates the matching of oxygen delivery to metabolic demand of tissue. Male and female mice devoid of Panx1 (Panx1-/-) and wild-type controls (WT) were anesthetized, mechanically ventilated, and instrumented with a carotid artery catheter or femoral artery flow transducer for hemodynamic and plasma ATP monitoring during inhalation of 21% (normoxia) or 10% oxygen (hypoxia). ATP export from WT vs. Panx1-/-erythrocytes (RBC) was determined ex vivo via tonometer experimentation across progressive deoxygenation. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) was similar in Panx1-/- (n = 6) and WT (n = 6) mice in normoxia, but the decrease in MAP in hypoxia seen in WT was attenuated in Panx1-/- mice (-16 ± 9% vs. -2 ± 8%; P < 0.05). Hindlimb blood flow (HBF) was significantly lower in Panx1-/- (n = 6) vs. WT (n = 6) basally, and increased in WT but not Panx1-/- mice during hypoxia (8 ± 6% vs. -10 ± 13%; P < 0.05). Estimation of hindlimb vascular conductance using data from the MAP and HBF experiments showed an average response of 28% for WT vs. -9% for Panx1-/- mice. Mean venous plasma ATP during hypoxia was 57% lower in Panx1-/- (n = 6) vs. WT mice (n = 6; P < 0.05). Mean hypoxia-induced ATP export from RBCs from Panx1-/- mice (n = 8) was 82% lower than that from WT (n = 8; P < 0.05). Panx1 channels participate in hemodynamic responses consistent with hypoxic vasodilation by regulating hypoxia-sensitive extracellular ATP levels in blood.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Export of vasodilator ATP from red blood cells requires pannexin 1. Blood plasma ATP elevations in response to hypoxia in mice require pannexin 1. Hemodynamic responses to hypoxia are accompanied by increased plasma ATP in mice in vivo and require pannexin 1.

Abstract
Healthy red blood cells (RBCs) deform readily in response to shear stress in the circulation, facilitating their efficient passage through capillaries. RBCs also export vasoactive mediators in response to deformation and other physiological and pathological stimuli. Deoxygenation of RBC hemoglobin leads to the export of vasodilator and antiadhesive S-nitrosothiols (SNOs) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in parallel with oxygen transport in the respiratory cycle. Together, these mediated responses to shear stress and oxygen offloading promote the efficient flow of blood cells and in turn optimize oxygen delivery. In diseases including sickle cell anemia and conditions including conventional blood banking, these adaptive functions may be compromised as a result, for example, of limited RBC deformability, impaired mediator formation, or dysfunctional mediator export. Ongoing work, including single cell approaches, is examining relevant mechanisms and remedies in health and disease.

Abstract
KEY POINTS Red blood cells (RBCs) release ATP in response to deoxygenation, which can increase blood flow to help match oxygen supply with tissue metabolic demand. This release of ATP is impaired in RBCs from older adults, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. In this study, improving RBC deformability in older adults restored deoxygenation-induced ATP release, whereas decreasing RBC deformability in young adults reduced ATP release to the level of that of older adults. In contrast, treating RBCs with a phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor did not affect ATP release in either age group, possibly due to intact intracellular signalling downstream of deoxygenation as indicated by preserved cAMP and ATP release responses to pharmacological Gi protein activation in RBCs from older adults. These findings are the first to demonstrate that the age-related decrease in RBC deformability is a primary mechanism of impaired deoxygenation-induced ATP release, which may have implications for treating impaired vascular control with advancing age. ABSTRACT In response to haemoglobin deoxygenation, red blood cells (RBCs) release ATP, which binds to endothelial purinergic receptors and stimulates vasodilatation. This ATP release is impaired in RBCs from older vs. young adults, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Using isolated RBCs from young (24 ± 1 years) and older (65 ± 2 years) adults, we tested the hypothesis that age-related changes in RBC deformability (Study 1) and cAMP signalling (Study 2) contribute to the impairment. RBC ATP release during normoxia ( P O 2 ∼112 mmHg) and hypoxia ( P O 2 ∼20 mmHg) was quantified with the luciferin-luciferase technique following RBC incubation with Y-27632 (Rho-kinase inhibitor to increase deformability), diamide (cell-stiffening agent), cilostazol (phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor), or vehicle control. The mean change in RBC ATP release from normoxia to hypoxia in control conditions was significantly impaired in older vs. young (∼50% vs. ∼120%; P < 0.05). RBC deformability was also lower in older vs. young as indicated by a higher RBC transit time (RCTT) measured by blood filtrometry (RCTT: 8.541 ± 0.050 vs. 8.234 ± 0.098 a.u., respectively; P < 0.05). Y-27632 improved RBC deformability (RCTT: 8.228 ± 0.083) and ATP release (111.7 ± 17.2%) in older and diamide decreased RBC deformability (RCTT: 8.955 ± 0.114) and ATP release (67.4 ± 11.8%) in young (P < 0.05), abolishing the age group differences (P > 0.05). Cilostazol did not change ATP release in either age group (P > 0.05), and RBC cAMP and ATP release to pharmacological Gi protein activation was similar in both groups (P > 0.05). We conclude that decreased RBC deformability is a primary contributor to age-related impairments in RBC ATP release, which may have implications for impaired vascular control with advancing age.

Abstract
Centrifugation is the primary preparation step for isolating red blood cells (RBCs) from whole blood, including for use in studies focused on transduction of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an important vasodilatory signaling molecule. Despite the wide use of centrifugation, little work has focused on how the centrifugation itself affects release of ATP from RBCs prior to subsequent experimentation. Here we report that both the centrifugation force and duration have a pronounced impact on the concentration of ATP present in the packed RBCs following centrifugation. Multiple subsequent centrifugations yield extracellular ATP concentrations comparable to the amount released during the initial centrifugation, suggesting this effect is cumulative. Pairwise measurements of hemoglobin and ATP suggest the presence of ATP is primarily due to an increase in centrifugation-induced hemolysis. These results indicate that common centrifugation parameters, within the ranges explored here, can release ATP in quantities comparable to the low end of the range of values measured in typical ATP transduction experiments, potentially complicating experimental interpretation of those results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Wan et al (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 105, 2008, 16432) demonstrated that RBCs rapidly and transiently release a spike of 300% more ATP shortly downstream from a short microfluidic constriction where the cells experience a sudden increase in shear stress. More recent work by Cinar et al (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 112, 2015, 11783), however, yielded no evidence for a similar spike in ATP release downstream of the constriction. Our aim was to determine whether a transient spike in mechanotransduction is the typical response of RBCs to the sudden onset of increased shear. METHODS We investigate ATP release downstream of a microfluidic constriction for 15 participants using a luciferase-based photoluminescent assay. RESULTS While we observe mechanotransductive ATP release from blood drawn from all donors, we find evidence of a spike in ATP concentration after the microfluidic constriction for only 2 of 15 participants. No clear trends in ATP release are found with respect to the magnitude of the applied shear stress, or to the gender, age, or physical activity (Baecke) index of the donor. CONCLUSIONS In aggregate, all data acquired to date suggest that a spike in mechanotransductive ATP due to a suddenly applied increase in shear stress occurs in blood drawn from only 14% of the population.

Abstract
Intravascular hemolysis occurs in hereditary, acquired, and iatrogenic hemolytic conditions but it could be also a normal physiological process contributing to intercellular signaling. New evidence suggests that intravascular hemolysis and the associated release of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) may be an important mechanism for in vivo local purinergic signaling and blood flow regulation during exercise and hypoxia. However, the mechanisms that modulate hypoxia-induced RBC membrane fragility remain unclear. Here, we provide an overview of the role of RBC ATP release in the regulation of vascular tone and prevailing assumptions on the putative release mechanisms. We show importance of intravascular hemolysis as a source of ATP for local purinergic regulation of blood flow and discuss processes that regulate membrane propensity to rupture under stress and hypoxia.

Abstract
Red blood cell (RBC)-derived adenosine triphosphate (ATP) has been proposed as an integral component in the regulation of oxygen supply to skeletal muscle. In ex vivo settings RBCs have been shown to release ATP in response to a number of stimuli, including stimulation of adrenergic receptors. Further evidence suggested that ATP release from RBCs was dependent on activation of adenylate cyclase (AC)/cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent pathways and involved the pannexin 1 (Panx1) channel. Here we show that RBCs express Panx1 and confirm its absence in Panx1 knockout (-/-) RBCs. However, Panx1-/- mice lack any decrease in exercise performance, challenging the assumptions that Panx1 plays an essential role in increased blood perfusion to exercising skeletal muscle and therefore in ATP release from RBCs. We therefore tested the role of Panx1 in ATP release from RBCs ex vivo in RBC suspensions. We found that stimulation with hypotonic potassium gluconate buffer resulted in a significant increase in ATP in the supernatant, but this was highly correlated with RBC lysis. Next, we treated RBCs with a stable cAMP analog, which did not induce ATP release from wild-type or Panx1-/- mice. Similarly, multiple pharmacological treatments activating AC in RBCs increased intracellular cAMP levels (as measured via mass spectrometry) but did not induce ATP release. The data presented here question the importance of Panx1 for exercise performance and dispute the general assumption that ATP release from RBCs via Panx1 is regulated via cAMP.

Abstract
In this review, we discuss the role of nitric oxide (NO) as a key physiological mechanotransducer modulating both local and systemic heterocellular communication and contributing to the integrated (patho)physiology of the cardiovascular system. A deeper understanding of mechanotransduction-mediated local and systemic nodes controlling heterocellular communication between the endothelium, blood cells, and other cell types (e.g., cardiomyocytes) may suggest novel therapeutic strategies for endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular disease. Recent Advances: Mechanical forces acting on mechanoreceptors on endothelial cells activate the endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) to produce NO. NO participates in (i) abluminal heterocellular communication, inducing vasorelaxation, and thereby regulating vascular tone and blood pressure; (ii) luminal heterocellular communication, inhibiting platelet aggregation, and controlling hemostasis; and (iii) systemic heterocellular communication, contributing to adaptive physiological processes in response to exercise and remote ischemic preconditioning. Interestingly, shear-induced eNOS-dependent activation of vascular heterocellular communication constitutes the molecular basis of all methods applied in the clinical routine for evaluation of endothelial function. Critical Issues and Future Directions: The integrated physiology of heterocellular communication is still not fully understood. Dedicated experimental models are needed to analyze messengers and mechanisms underpinning heterocellular communication in response to physical forces in the cardiovascular system (and elsewhere).

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Recent clinical evidence identified anemia to be correlated with severe complications of cardiovascular disease (CVD) such as bleeding, thromboembolic events, stroke, hypertension, arrhythmias, and inflammation, particularly in elderly patients. The underlying mechanisms of these complications are largely unidentified. Recent Advances: Previously, red blood cells (RBCs) were considered exclusively as transporters of oxygen and nutrients to the tissues. More recent experimental evidence indicates that RBCs are important interorgan communication systems with additional functions, including participation in control of systemic nitric oxide metabolism, redox regulation, blood rheology, and viscosity. In this article, we aim to revise and discuss the potential impact of these noncanonical functions of RBCs and their dysfunction in the cardiovascular system and in anemia. CRITICAL ISSUES The mechanistic links between changes of RBC functional properties and cardiovascular complications related to anemia have not been untangled so far. FUTURE DIRECTIONS To allow a better understanding of the complications associated with anemia in CVD, basic and translational science studies should be focused on identifying the role of noncanonical functions of RBCs in the cardiovascular system and on defining intrinsic and/or systemic dysfunction of RBCs in anemia and its relationship to CVD both in animal models and clinical settings.

Abstract
In this review, we present the relation between power generation capabilities and pulmonary oxygen uptake during incremental cycling exercise in humans and the effect of exercise intensity on the oxygen cost of work. We also discuss the importance of oxygen delivery to the working muscles as a factor determining maximal oxygen uptake in humans. Subsequently, we outline the importance of coronary blood flow, myocardial oxygen uptake and myocardial metabolic stability for exercise tolerance. Finally, we describe mechanisms of endothelium-dependent regulation of coronary and skeletal muscle blood flow, dysregulation of which may impair exercise capacity and increase the cardiovascular risk of exercise.
