[Characteristics of adenosine activity on adenine nucleotide metabolism of rat thymocytes].
The effects of adenosine on adenine nucleotide metabolism in [14C]adenine-labeled rat thymocytes were studied. It was shown that adenosine increases the intracellular pool of adenine nucleotides, predominantly ATP, which is accompanied by marked acceleration of their catabolism and a release of labeled products (especially inosine, hypoxanthine and adenosine) from the thymocytes. The effect of adenosine depends on its concentration and manifests itself already at 10(-6) M. 2-Deoxycoformycin partly relieves the effect of adenosine on adenine nucleotide metabolism. Exogenous deoxyadenosine, inosine, hypoxanthine and adenine, unlike adenosine, do not significantly affect the adenine nucleotide catabolism and the label release from the cells. All the effectors under study strongly increase inosine transport from the thymocytes, and inhibit, with the exception of adenosine, the hypoxanthine release from the cells.
