A Role for Adenosine A1 Receptors in GABA and NMDA-Receptor Mediated Modulation of Dopamine Release: Studies Using Fast Cyclic Voltammetry

Sensors, 2008
In the striatum many neurotransmitters including GABA, glutamate, acetylcholine, dopamine, nitric oxide and adenosine interact to regulate synaptic transmission. Dopamine release in the striatum is regulated by a number of pre- and postsynaptic receptors

Repeated topical paeoniflorin attenuates postoperative pain and accelerates cutaneous fibroblast proliferation in mice

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2023
This study investigated whether the repeated topical paeoniflorin inhibits postoperative pain in mice. An incision of the plantar skin and underlying muscle of the hind paw elicits acute postoperative pain.

Involvement of adenosine signaling pathway in migraine pathophysiology: a systematic review of preclinical studies

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2022
Background Adenosine is a purinergic signaling molecule with a wide range of physiological functions including anti- and pronociceptive properties. Adenosine receptors are expressed in the trigeminovascular system, and adenosine receptor antagonist ...

Characterization of the trigeminovascular actions of several adenosine A2A receptor antagonists in an in vivo rat model of migraine

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2018
Background Migraine is considered a neurovascular disorder, but its pathophysiological mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Adenosine has been shown to increase in plasma during migraine attacks and to induce vasodilation in several blood vessels ...

Dual acting antioxidant A1 adenosine receptor agonists

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2007
Herein we report the synthesis and biological evaluation of some potent and selective A(1) adenosine receptor agonists, which incorporate a functionalised linker attached to an antioxidant moiety. N(6)-(2,2,5,5-Tetramethylpyrrolidin-1-yloxyl-3-ylmethyl)adenosine (VCP28, 2e) proved to be an agonist with high affinity (K(i)=50nM) and good selectivity (A ...

Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields: A Novel Attractive Therapeutic Opportunity for Neuroprotection After Acute Cerebral Ischemia

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,
