Allosteric interactions at adenosine A1 and A3 receptors: new insights into the role of small molecules and receptor dimerization [PDF]
Keywords:adenosine;allosterism;receptor;GPCR;dimerization;biased signalling The purine nucleoside adenosine is present in all cells in tightly regulated concentrations. It is released under a variety of physiological and pathophysiological conditions to

Degranulation of rat omental mast cells by A1 receptor agonists in vitro
The haemodynamic effects of adenosine are thought to result in part from a release of mast cell amines via A3 receptor stimulation. To investigate the nature of the receptors involved in adenosine-induced mast cell degranulation in the rat isolated ...

Cisplatin is a commonly used antineoplastic agent that produces ototoxicity that is mediated in part by increasing levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) via the NOX3 NADPH oxidase pathway in the cochlea.

Adenosinergic regulation of binge-like ethanol drinking and associated locomotor effects in male C57BL/6J mice [PDF]
We recently observed that the addition of caffeine (a nonselective adenosine receptor antagonist) to a 20% ethanol solution significantly altered the intoxication profile of male C57BL/6J (B6) mice induced by voluntary binge-like consumption in the ...

Adenosine receptors are widely expressed in the brain and adenosine is a key bioactive substance for neuroprotection. Here, we clarify systematically the role of adenosine A1 receptors during a range of timescales and conditions when a significant amount

Evidence for the presence of A1 adenosine receptors in the aorta of spontaneously hypertensive rats [PDF]
1 Isolated aortic rings (endothelium-intact and -denuded) from spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were used in this study to examine the vasoactive e ects of various adenosine analogues.

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

Neuropathic pain is a chronic pain condition caused by damage or dysfunction of the central or peripheral nervous system. Electroacupuncture (EA) has an antinociceptive effect on neuropathic pain, which is partially due to inhibiting astrocyte activation

Purinergic P2 receptors trigger adenosine release leading to adenosine A2A receptor activation and facilitation of long-term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices [PDF]
Electrophysiological recordings were used to investigate the effects of ATP analogues on [theta]-burst-induced long-term potentiation (LTP) in rat hippocampal slices.

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 ...
