Guanine and inosine nucleotides/nucleosides suppress murine T cell activation.
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications 2018 April 16
Damaged tissues and cells release intracellular purine nucleotides, which serve as intercellular signaling factors. We previously showed that exogenously added adenine nucleotide (250 μM ATP) suppressed the activation of murine splenic T lymphocytes. Here, we examined the effects of other purine nucleotides/nucleosides on mouse T cell activation. First, we found that pretreatment of mouse spleen T cells with 250 μM GTP, GDP, GMP, guanosine, ITP, IDP, IMP or inosine significantly reduced the release of stimulus-inducible cytokine IL-2. This suppression of IL-2 release was not caused by induction of cell death. Further studies with GTP, ITP, guanosine and inosine showed that pretreatment with these nucleotides/nucleosides also suppressed release of IL-6. However, these nucleotides/nucleosides did not suppress stimulus-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2, suggesting that the suppression of the release of inflammatory cytokines does not involve inhibition of ERK1/2 signaling. In contrast to ATP pretreatment at the same concentration, guanine or inosine nucleotides/nucleosides did not attenuate the expression of CD25. Our findings indicate that exogenous guanine or inosine nucleotides/nucleosides can suppress inflammatory cytokine release from T cells, and may be promising candidates for use as supplementary agents in the treatment of T cell-mediated immune diseases.
