A series of 8-substituted derivatives of 1,3,7-alkylxanthines was synthesized as potential activators of chloride efflux from a human epithelial cell line (CFPAC) expressing the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) delta F508 mutation. Their interactions with rat brain A1 and A2a receptors were also studied in radioligand binding experiments. Substitution was varied at the xanthine 1-, 3-, 7- and 8-positions. 1,3-Dipropyl-8-cyclopentylxanthine (CPX) stimulated Cl- efflux in the 10(-8) M range, with a maximal effect reaching 200% of control and diminishing at higher concentrations. The potent adenosine antagonist 8-[4-[[[[(2-aminoethyl)amino]carbonyl]methyl]oxy]phenyl]- 1,3-dipropylxanthine, nonselective at human A1 and A2a receptors, was inactive in Cl- efflux. 1,3-Diallyl-8-cyclohexylxanthine (DAX) was highly efficacious in stimulating chloride efflux with levels reaching > 300% of control, although micromolar concentrations were required. 1,3,7-Trimethyl-8-(3-chlorostyryl)xanthine, an A2a-selective adenosine antagonist, was only weakly active. Caffeine, which acts as an nonselective adenosine antagonist in the range of 10(-5) M, was active in Cl- efflux in the low nanomolar range but with low efficacy. Thus, among the xanthine derivatives of diverse structure, there was no correlation between potency in Cl- efflux and adenosine antagonism. Poly(A)+ RNA isolated from CFPAC-1 cells showed no hybridization to a human A1 receptor cDNA probe, excluding this receptor as a mediator of CPX-elicited Cl- efflux. Thus, this action of xanthines in stimulating Cl- efflux in CFPAC cells, which express a defective CFTR, represents a novel site of action apparently unrelated to adenosine receptors.
