Special Issue: Adenosine Receptors [PDF]
Molecules, 2017 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 Receptors in Health and Disease
, 2011 The adenosine receptors A(1), A(2A), A(2B), and A(3) are important and ubiquitous mediators of cellular signaling, which play vital roles in protecting tissues and organs from damage. In particular, adenosine triggers tissue protection and repair by different receptor-mediated mechanisms, including an increase of oxygen supply/demand ratio ...

Role of adenosine A2a receptor in cancers and autoimmune diseases
Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2023 Adenosine receptors are P1 class of purinergic receptors that belong to G protein‐coupled receptors. There are 4 subtypes of adenosine receptors, namely A1, A2A, A2B, and A3. A2AR has a high affinity for the ligand adenosine.

Adenosine Receptors and Cancer [PDF]
, 2009 The A(1), A(2A), A(2B) and A(3) G-protein-coupled cell surface adenosine receptors (ARs) are found to be upregulated in various tumor cells. Activation of the receptors by specific ligands, agonists or antagonists, modulates tumor growth via a range of signaling pathways.

Multiple P2Y receptors couple to calcium-dependent, chloride channels in smooth muscle cells of the rat pulmonary artery [PDF]
, 2005 Uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) and uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) act via P2Y receptors to evoke contraction of rat pulmonary arteries, whilst adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) acts via P2X and P2Y receptors.

Purinergic signaling in the modulation of redox biology
Redox Biology, 2021 Purinergic signaling is a cell communication pathway mediated by extracellular nucleotides and nucleosides. Tri- and diphosphonucleotides are released in physiological and pathological circumstances activating purinergic type 2 receptors (P2 receptors ...
