Characterization of Human A2B Adenosine Receptors: Radioligand Binding, Western Blotting, and Coupling to Gq in Human Embryonic Kidney 293 Cells and HMC-1 Mast Cells

Recombinant human A2B adenosine receptors (A2BARs) and receptors extended on the amino terminus with hexahistidine and the FLAG epitope, DYKDDDDK (H/F-A2B) were stably overexpressed (to >20,000 fmol/mg protein) in human embryonic kidney 293 cells (HEK-A2B). By Western blotting, the H/F-A2B receptor runs as a 34.8-kDa glycoprotein. Pharmacological properties of A2BARs were characterized with 125I-3-aminobenzyl-8-phenyl-(4-oxyacetic acid)-1-propylxanthine (KD, 36 nM). In competition binding assays, the affinity of agonists is reduced by substitution on either the N6- or the C-2 position of the adenine ring, whereas 5'-substitutions increase affinity, resulting in the potency order: 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA) >> N6-aminobenzyl-NECA approx 2-chloroadenosine > 2-[4-(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino]-NECA (CGS21680) > N6-aminobenzyladenosine. The A2BAR is potently blocked by the A2A-selective antagonist 4-(2-[7-amino-2-[2-furyl][1,2,4]triazolo-[2,3-a][1,3,5] triazin-5-yl-amino]ethyl)phenol (ZM241385; KI, 32 nM for A2B, 1.4 nM for A2A) and the A1 selective antagonist 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (KI, 50.5 nM for A2B; 2.5 nM for A1). The KI values for the antiasthmatic xanthines, theophylline (7.8 µM) and enprofylline (6.4 µM), are below their therapeutic plasma concentrations (20 to 50 µM), and agree with KI determinations for inhibition of NECA-stimulated cAMP accumulation in HEK-A2B cells. NECA or N6-(2-iodo)benzyl-5'-N-methylcarboxamidodoadenosine (IB-MECA) stimulate inositol trisphosphates and calcium accumulation in HEK-A2B or HEK-A3 cells, respectively, but only the A3 response is prevented by pertussis toxin. In human HMC-1 mast cells, A2BAR activation stimulates calcium mobilization and cAMP accumulation. We conclude that HEK-A2B cells and HMC-1 mast cells possess A2BAR glycoproteins that are coupled to both Gq/11 and Gs.
