Gliomas are the most common and devastating primary tumors of the central nervous system. Ecto-NTPDases and ecto-5'-nucleotidase/CD73 can control extracellular ATP/adenosine levels, which have been described as proliferation factors. Here, we investigate the influence of indomethacin on the enzyme cascade that catalyses the interconversion of purine nucleotides in U138-MG and C6 glioma cell lines. Exposure of glioma cells to 100 microM indomethacin for 48 h caused increases of 52% (P < 0.05) and 62% (P < 0.05) in the AMP hydrolysis rate in C6 and U138-MG cell lines, respectively. Indomethacin treatments also increased ATP hydrolysis. Significant increase in ecto-5'-nucleotidase/CD73 mRNA and protein levels were observed after treatment with indomethacin. Pretreatment of glioma cells with a specific antagonist of the adenosine A(3) receptor, MRS1220 (1 microM; 9-Chloro-2-(2-furanyl)-5-((phenylacetyl)amino)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazoline), significantly reduced the inhibition of cell proliferation induced by indomethacin. In addition, a significant increase in mRNA levels of the adenosine A(3) receptor was observed after treatment with indomethacin. In conclusion, our data indicate that adenosine A(3) receptors and the enzyme, ecto-5'-nucleotidase/CD73, are involved in the anti-proliferative effect of indomethacin in glioma cells.

D004789 Enzyme Activation Conversion of an inactive form of an enzyme to one possessing metabolic activity. It includes 1, activation by ions (activators); 2, activation by cofactors (coenzymes); and 3, conversion of an enzyme precursor (proenzyme or zymogen) to an active enzyme.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

D005910 Glioma Benign and malignant central nervous system neoplasms derived from glial cells (i.e., astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymocytes). Astrocytes may give rise to astrocytomas (ASTROCYTOMA) or glioblastoma multiforme (see GLIOBLASTOMA). Oligodendrocytes give rise to oligodendrogliomas (OLIGODENDROGLIOMA) and ependymocytes may undergo transformation to become EPENDYMOMA; CHOROID PLEXUS NEOPLASMS; or colloid cysts of the third ventricle.

D000199 Actins Filamentous proteins that are the main constituent of the thin filaments of muscle fibers. The filaments (known also as filamentous or F-actin) can be dissociated into their globular subunits; each subunit is composed of a single polypeptide 375 amino acids long. This is known as globular or G-actin. In conjunction with MYOSINS, actin is responsible for the contraction and relaxation of muscle.
