Adenosinergic regulation of binge-like ethanol drinking and associated locomotor effects in male C57BL/6J mice [PDF]
We recently observed that the addition of caffeine (a nonselective adenosine receptor antagonist) to a 20% ethanol solution significantly altered the intoxication profile of male C57BL/6J (B6) mice induced by voluntary binge-like consumption in the ...

Adenosine Deaminase and A1 Adenosine Receptors Internalize Together following Agonist-induced Receptor Desensitization [PDF]
A1 adenosine receptors (A1Rs) and adenosine deaminase (ADA; EC 3.5.4. 4) interact on the cell surface of DDT1MF-2 smooth muscle cells. The interaction facilitates ligand binding and signaling via A1R, but it is not known whether it has a role in homologous desensitization of A1Rs. Here we show that chronic exposure of DDT1MF-2 cells to the A1R agonist,

Background Migraine is considered a neurovascular disorder, but its pathophysiological mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Adenosine has been shown to increase in plasma during migraine attacks and to induce vasodilation in several blood vessels ...

Purinergic P2 receptors trigger adenosine release leading to adenosine A2A receptor activation and facilitation of long-term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices [PDF]
Electrophysiological recordings were used to investigate the effects of ATP analogues on [theta]-burst-induced long-term potentiation (LTP) in rat hippocampal slices.

Dual acting antioxidant A1 adenosine receptor agonists
Herein we report the synthesis and biological evaluation of some potent and selective A(1) adenosine receptor agonists, which incorporate a functionalised linker attached to an antioxidant moiety. N(6)-(2,2,5,5-Tetramethylpyrrolidin-1-yloxyl-3-ylmethyl)adenosine (VCP28, 2e) proved to be an agonist with high affinity (K(i)=50nM) and good selectivity (A ...

Adenosine A2A receptors: localization and function [PDF]
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 ...

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,

The aim of the present study is to clarify the mechanism for the decrease in intraocular pressure by 2-alkynyladenosine derivatives in rabbits. The receptor binding analysis revealed that 2-(1-octyn-1-yl)adenosine (2-O-Ado) and 2-(6-cyano-1-hexyn-1-yl ...
