Blockage of the p53 tumor suppressor has been found to impair nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite outgrowth in PC-12 cells. We report herein that such impairment could be rescued by stimulation of the A(2A) adenosine receptor (A(2A)-R), a G protein-coupled receptor implicated in neuronal plasticity. The A(2A)-R-mediated rescue occurred in the presence of protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors or protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitors and in a PKA-deficient PC-12 variant. Thus, neither PKA nor PKC was involved. In contrast, expression of a truncated A(2A)-R mutant harboring the seventh transmembrane domain and its C terminus reduced the rescue effect of A(2A)-R. Using the cytoplasmic tail of the A(2A)-R as bait, a novel-A(2A)-R-interacting protein [translin-associated protein X (TRAX)] was identified in a yeast two-hybrid screen. The authenticity of this interaction was verified by pull-down experiments, coimmunoprecipitation, and colocalization of these two molecules in the brain. It is noteworthy that reduction of TRAX using an antisense construct suppressed the rescue effect of A(2A)-R, whereas overexpression of TRAX alone caused the same rescue effect as did A(2A)-R activation. Results of [(3)H]thymidine and bromodeoxyuridine incorporation suggested that A(2A)-R stimulation inhibited cell proliferation in a TRAX-dependent manner. Because the antimitotic activity is crucial for NGF function, the A(2A)-R might exert its rescue effect through a TRAX-mediated antiproliferative signal. This antimitotic activity of the A(2A)-R also enables a mitogenic factor (epidermal growth factor) to induce neurite outgrowth. We demonstrate that the A(2A)-R modulates the differentiation ability of trophic factors through a novel interacting protein, TRAX.
