Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), a poor survival cancer has high resistance to therapy, with low drug efficacy. Adenosine is present in high concentrations in tumor microenvironment. Recently, adenosine was found to sensitize ovarian cisplatin-resistant cancer. This work aims at addressing if adenosine can sensitize TNBC resistance to platinum drugs. Concomitant/preincubation of adenosine with cisplatin or carboplatin induced cell proliferation in TNBC cisplatin-sensitive (MDA) and -resistant (MDA/R) cells (using Lionheart-FX microscope). Phosphorylation of ERK or NF-κB pathways and cAMP production were evaluated (AlphaScreen assays). Data analyzed with One-way ANOVA t-test. Results: concomitant or preincubation of adenosine (300, 600, 700 µM) with cisplatin reduced resistance in MDA/R, with proliferation levels approaching those observed in MDA. In MDA, endogenous and exogenous adenosine have no effect over ERK phosphorylation; in MDA/R, exogenous adenosine lowers ERK phosphorylation. NF-κB phosphorylation was induced by A₃R and A_2BR tonic activation in MDA and MDA/R, respectively, increasing survival - exogenous adenosine inactivates this via. Tonically cAMP production was altered in MDA and MDA/R, revealing inhibitory and stimulatory effects in cAMP production by A₁R and A_2BR, respectively, in MDA/R. By contrast, exogenous adenosine revealed that adenosine receptors in MDA contribute differently while in MDA/R all receptor subtypes have a similar contribution to cAMP production. Thus, adenosine contributes to overcome platinum-derived resistance in TNBC, involving the inactivation of NF-κB pathway and decrease of ERK phosphorylation (partially mediated by A₃R).
