Adenosine is formed in injured/ischemic tissues, where it suppresses the actions of essentially all cells of the immune system. Most of the anti-inflammatory actions of adenosine have been attributed to signaling through the G(s) protein-coupled A(2A) adenosine receptor (AR). Here, we report that the A(3)AR is highly expressed in murine neutrophils isolated from bone marrow. Selective activation of the A(3)AR with (2S, 3S, 4R, 5R)-3-amino5-[6-(2,5-dichlorobenzylamino) purin-9-yl]-4-hydroxytetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid methylamide (CP-532,903) potently inhibited mouse bone marrow neutrophil superoxide generation and chemotaxis induced by various activating agents. The selectivity of CP-532,903 was confirmed in assays using neutrophils obtained from A(2A)AR and A(3)AR gene "knockout" mice. In a model of thioglycollate-induced inflammation, treating mice with CP-532,903 inhibited recruitment of leukocytes into the peritoneum by specifically activating the A(3)AR. Collectively, our findings support the theory that the A(3)AR contributes to the anti-inflammatory actions of adenosine on neutrophils and provide a potential mechanistic explanation for the efficacy of A(3)AR agonists in animal models of inflammation (i.e., inhibition of neutrophil-mediated tissue injury).
