Adenosine-A2A Receptor Pathway in Cancer Immunotherapy. [PDF]
A2A receptors (A2AR), a typical GPCR with a high affinity for adenosine, was expressed in many immune cells, such as regulatory T cells, cytotoxic T cells, macrophages, etc. Adenosine binding to the A2AR receptor activates the typical G protein and triggers the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway.

Supporting the identification of novel fragment-based positive allosteric modulators using a supervised molecular dynamics approach: A retrospective analysis considering the human A2A adenosine receptor as a key example [PDF]
Structure-driven fragment-based (SDFB) approaches have provided efficient methods for the identification of novel drug candidates. This strategy has been largely applied in discovering several pharmacological ligand classes, including enzyme inhibitors ...

Evidence for coordinated induction and repression of ecto-5'-nucleotidase (CD73) and the A2a adenosine receptor in a human B cell line [PDF]
In the human B cell line P493-6 two mitogenic signals, the EpsteinBarr virus nuclear antigen 2 (EBNA2) and myc, can be independently regulated by means of an estrogen receptor fusion construct or an inducible expression vector, respectively.
