Adenosinergic System Involvement in Ischemic Stroke Patients’ Lymphocytes
Cells, 2020 Adenosine modulates many physiological processes through the interaction with adenosine receptors (ARs) named as A1, A2A, A2B, and A3ARs. During ischemic stroke, adenosine mediates neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects through ARs activation. One

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.

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 ...

Annual Review of Physiology, 1992 Our knowledge of A1 and A2ARs has grown dramatically since they were first defined by Burnstock. With the recent purification of the A1AR and the cDNA cloning of the A2AR, an even more rapid expansion of information regarding their structure, function, and regulation should now ensue.

Purinergic Signaling in the Regulation of Gout Flare and Resolution
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Gout flares require monosodium urate (MSU) to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome and secrete sufficient IL-1β. However, MSU alone is not sufficient to cause a flare. This is supported by the evidence that most patients with hyperuricemia do not develop gout

Adenosine receptors and asthma [PDF]
British Journal of Pharmacology, 2008 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 ...
