ATP- and Adenosine-Mediated Signaling in the Central Nervous System: Adenosine Receptor Activation by ATP Through Rapid and Localized Generation of Adenosine by Ecto-nucleotidases

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
Extracellular ATP is now recognized as a neurotransmitter or neuromodilator in the nervous system, producing diverse physiological effects by activating multiple P2 receptors.

Microglial Adenosine Receptors: From Preconditioning to Modulating the M1/M2 Balance in Activated Cells

open access: yesCells, 2021
Neuronal survival depends on the glia, that is, on the astroglial and microglial support. Neurons die and microglia are activated not only in neurodegenerative diseases but also in physiological aging.

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

Adenosine receptors and diabetes: Focus on the A2B adenosine receptor subtype

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2015
Over the last two decades, diabetes mellitus has become one of the most challenging health problems worldwide. Diabetes mellitus, classified as type I and II, is a pathology concerning blood glucose level in the body. The nucleoside adenosine has long been known to affect insulin secretion, glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism, through activation ...

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Activation of Adenylyl Cyclase Causes Stimulation of Adenosine Receptors

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: Signaling of Gs protein-coupled receptors (GsPCRs) is accomplished by stimulation of adenylyl cyclase, causing an increase of the intracellular cAMP concentration, activation of the intracellular cAMP effectors protein kinase A (PKA) and

Dose‐dependent hepatotoxicity of hydrogen peroxide in HepG2 cells and its modulation by CYP450 induction

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
NMR metabolomics revealed concentration‐dependent metabolic perturbations in HepG2 cells exposed to H2O2. Rifampicin pretreatment enhanced metabolic competence, attenuated toxin‐induced alterations and produced metabolite profiles more consistent with human liver physiology, supporting the use of CYP450‐induced HepG2 models for improved in vitro ...

Models for the PET quantitative imaging of the adenosine receptor radioligand [11C] SCH442416 in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Positron Emission Tomography is an important imaging technique, that enables regional function to be assayed in a fully quantitative and noninvasive manner. It is based on the use of radioactive tracers: [11C]SCH442416, which is the compound of interest

Adenosine regulation of the immune system

open access: yes, 2018
Adenosine is an endogenous nucleoside, released into the extracellular space in response to metabolic stress and cell damage and critically involved in the maintenance of tissue integrity by modulation of the immune system.
