Material and methods
Series of in vitro studies accompanied by immunohistochemical, RQ-PCR and shRNA methods have characterised adenosine receptor expression on Rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines, normal skeletal muscle and effect of adenosine on Rhabdomyosarcoma growth and migration.Results
Extracellular adenosine (highest at 50 μM, p < 0.05) and AMP (highest at 300 μM, p < 0.05) markedly enhanced chemotaxis in the Boyden chamber assay The reaction is mostly governed by the A1 receptor, which is greatly overexpressed in Rhabdomyosarcoma as compared with normal skeletal muscle. Cell migration induced by adenosine and AMP is blocked by pertussis toxin, phospholipase C and MAP kinase inhibitor, which demonstrates the importance of these signalling pathways. High doses of adenosine have a detrimental effect on cellular proliferation, in a receptor-independent manner (≥ 500 μM; p < 0.05). The blockage of adenosine transporter by dipyridamole abolishes this effect, indicating involvement of an intrinsic pathway. Further increase of adenosine concentration, induced by deaminase inhibitors, augment the effect.
