ABSTRACT
In the present study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms of adenosine for its hair growth promoting effect. Adenosine stimulated the Wnt/ß-catenin pathway by modulating the activity of Gsk3ß in cultured human dermal papilla cells. It also activated adenosine receptor signaling, increasing intracellular cAMP level, and subsequently stimulating the cAMP mediated cellular energy metabolism. The phosphorylation of CREB, mTOR, and GSK3ß was increased. Furthermore, the expression of ß-catenin target genes such as Axin2, Lef1, and growth factors (bFGF, FGF7, IGF-1) was also enhanced. The inhibitor study data conducted in Wnt reporter cells and in cultured human dermal papilla cells demonstrated that adenosine stimulates Wnt/ß-catenin signaling through the activation of the adenosine receptor and Gsk3ß plays a critical role in transmitting the signals from the adenosine receptor to ß-catenin, possibly via the Gαs/cAMP/PKA/mTOR signaling cascade.
