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

In the present study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms of adenosine for its hair growth promoting effect. Adenosine stimulated the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by modulating the activity of Gsk3β in cultured human dermal papilla cells. It also activated

Targeting Adenosine Receptor Signaling in Cancer Immunotherapy
The immune system plays a major role in the surveillance and control of malignant cells, with the presence of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) correlating with better patient prognosis in multiple tumor types. The development of ‘checkpoint blockade’

Adenosine receptors and cancer
Adenosine is a ubiquitous signaling molecule whose physiological functions are mediated by its interaction with four G-protein-coupled receptor subtypes, termed A(1), A(2A), A(2B) and A(3). As a result of increased metabolic rates, this nucleoside is released from a variety of cells throughout the body in concentrations that can have a profound impact ...

Adenosine receptors and asthma [PDF]
The accumulation of evidence implicating a role for adenosine in the pathogenesis of asthma has led to investigations into all adenosine receptor subtypes as potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of asthma. Selective A1receptor antagonists are currently in preclinical development since adenosine has been shown experimentally to mediate ...

Special Issue: Adenosine Receptors [PDF]
Nearly 90 years ago, Drury and Szent-Györgyi revealed that adenosine produced profound hypotension and bradycardia, and it affected kidney function in mammals [1]. [...]

Adenosine Receptor-Mediated Cardioprotection—Current Limitations and Future Directions
Since the seminal reports of adenosine receptor-mediated cardioprotection in the early 1990s, there have been a multitude of such reports in various species and preparations.

Background Adenosine signaling is now an accepted explanation for the therapeutic mechanism of Methotrexate (MTX) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Adenosine receptors categorized into four subclasses: adenosine A1 receptor (ADORA1), adenosine 2a receptor ...
