Adenosine potentiates mouse bone marrow-derived mast cell mediator release by a mechanism that appears to involve cell surface adenosine receptors. In an attempt to explore possible interactions between G proteins and adenosine receptors, mast cells were incubated with activated pertussis toxin, an agent that ADP-ribosylates and inactivates some G protein subtypes, prior to challenge with specific antigen or the calcium ionophore A23187. Mast cells preincubated with 10 ng ml pertussis toxin for at least 2hr exhibited an inhibition of antigen-induced β-hexosaminidase and leukotriene C 4 release. The ability of adenosine to potentiate β-hexosaminidase release was attenuated to an even greater degree by pertussis toxin. A23187-stimulated mediator release was not altered by pertussis toxin, although a modest inhibition of the ability of adenosine to enhance A23187-induced β-hexosaminidase release was observed in pertussis toxin-treated mast cells. Although up to 24-hr exposure to 100 ng ml pertussis toxin did not alter resting mast cell cyclic AMP levels, the ability of adenosine to elevate cell cyclic AMP concentrations was diminished markedly by doses of the toxin higher than those required to affect mediator release. Neither antigen-stimulated intracellular free calcium level augmentation alone nor the additional potentiation of these levels by adenosine was changed by pertussis toxin treatment. Inositol trisphosphate was generated by mast cells stimulated by IgE-mediated mechanisms, but a preincubation with pertussis toxin did not influence its generation. In summary, adenosine appeared to produce some of its alterations in mast cell biochemical events by a mechanism that was partially inhibited by pertussis toxin. The nature of the G protein linked to the mast cell adenosine receptor is yet to be determined.
