Adenosine A2A receptors: localization and function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Adenosine is an endogenous purine nucleoside present in all mammalian tissues, that originates from the breakdown of ATP. By binding to its four receptor subtypes (A1, A2A, A2B, and A3), adenosine regulates several important physiological functions at ...

Adenosine A2A receptor activation reduces chondrocyte senescence. [PDF]

open access: yesFASEB J, 2023
Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis is associated with reduced chondrocyte homeostasis and increased levels of cartilage cellular senescence. Chondrosenescence is the development of cartilage senescence that increases with aging joints and disrupts chondrocyte homeostasis and is associated with OA.

Adenosine A2a receptor in Experimental Periodontitis

open access: yesDentistry Review
OBJECTIVES: Our previous work has shown the role of adenosine in mitochondrial health to regulate IL-1-mediated inflammation in human gingival fibroblasts, and the protective role of enzyme CD73, which is the final step to generate adenosine ...

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

open access: yesNeuromodulation: 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,

Synergistic Effects of Adenosine A2A Antagonist and L-DOPA on Rotational Behaviors in 6-Hydroxydopamine-Induced Hemi-Parkinsonian Mouse Model

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
In this study, we examined the combination effects of L-DOPA and adenosine receptor antagonists on rotational behaviors in a hemi-Parkinsonian mouse model induced by unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) injection. The adenosine A2A antagonist SCH-58261,

CD73-A2a adenosine receptor axis promotes innate B cell antibody responses to pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccination. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Many individuals at risk of streptococcal infection respond poorly to the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine Pneumovax 23. Identification of actionable pathways able to enhance Pneumovax responsiveness is highly relevant.

Adenosine A2A receptor binding profile of two antagonists, ST1535 and KW6002: consideration on the presence of atypical adenosine A2A binding sites

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2010
Adenosine A2A receptors seem to exist in typical (more in striatum) and atypical (more in hippocampus and cortex) subtypes. In the present study, we investigated the affinity of two adenosine A2A receptor antagonists, ST1535 [2 butyl -9-methyl-8-(2H-1,2 ...

ST 1535: a preferential A2A adenosine receptor antagonist [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2005
Antagonism of the A2A adenosine function has proved beneficial in the treatment of Parkinson's disease, in that it increases L-dopa therapeutical effects without concomitant worsening of its side-effects. In this paper we describe a preferential A2A adenosine antagonist, ST 1535, with long-lasting pharmacodynamic effects.

Adenosine Receptors and Wound Healing

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2004
Recent studies have demonstrated that application of topical adenosine A2A receptor agonists promotes more rapid wound closure and clinical studies are currently underway to determine the utility of topical A2A adenosine receptor agonists in the therapy ...
