Degranulation of rat omental mast cells by A1 receptor agonists in vitro

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1996
The haemodynamic effects of adenosine are thought to result in part from a release of mast cell amines via A3 receptor stimulation. To investigate the nature of the receptors involved in adenosine-induced mast cell degranulation in the rat isolated ...

Sleep-wake sensitive mechanisms of adenosine release in the basal forebrain of rodents : an in vitro study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Adenosine acting in the basal forebrain is a key mediator of sleep homeostasis. Extracellular adenosine concentrations increase during wakefulness, especially during prolonged wakefulness and lead to increased sleep pressure and subsequent rebound sleep.

Wakefulness affects synaptic and network activity by increasing extracellular astrocyte-derived adenosine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Loss of sleep causes an increase in sleep drive and deficits in hippocampal-dependent memory. Both of these responses are thought to require activation of adenosine A1 receptors (adorA1Rs) and release of transmitter molecules including ATP, which is ...

A Role for Adenosine A1 Receptors in GABA and NMDA-Receptor Mediated Modulation of Dopamine Release: Studies Using Fast Cyclic Voltammetry

open access: yesSensors, 2008
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

AMP Is an Adenosine A1 Receptor Agonist [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Numerous receptors for ATP, ADP, and adenosine exist; however, it is currently unknown whether a receptor for the related nucleotide adenosine 5′-monophosphate (AMP) exists. Using a novel cell-based assay to visualize adenosine receptor activation in real time, we found that AMP and a non-hydrolyzable AMP analog (deoxyadenosine 5′-monophosphonate, ACP)

Repeated topical paeoniflorin attenuates postoperative pain and accelerates cutaneous fibroblast proliferation in mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2023
This study investigated whether the repeated topical paeoniflorin inhibits postoperative pain in mice. An incision of the plantar skin and underlying muscle of the hind paw elicits acute postoperative pain.

The glycoprotein nature of A1 adenosine receptors [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1986
A1 adenosine receptors from different tissues and species were photoaffinity labelled and then the carbohydrate content was examined by both enzymatic and chemical treatment. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the labelled membrane receptors shows that neuraminidase treatment alters the electrophoretic mobility of the receptor

Activity-dependent release of Adenosine: a critical re-evaluation of mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Adenosine is perhaps the most important and universal modulator in the brain. The current consensus is that it is primarily produced in the extracellular space from the breakdown of previously released ATP.

Impaired Inhibitory Function of Presynaptic A1-Adenosine Receptors in SHR Mesenteric Arteries

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2013
In hypertension, vascular reactivity alterations have been attributed to numerous factors, including higher sympathetic innervation/adenosine. This study examined the modulation of adenosine receptors on vascular sympathetic nerves and their putative ...

Involvement of adenosine signaling pathway in migraine pathophysiology: a systematic review of preclinical studies

open access: yesThe Journal of Headache and Pain, 2022
Background Adenosine is a purinergic signaling molecule with a wide range of physiological functions including anti- and pronociceptive properties. Adenosine receptors are expressed in the trigeminovascular system, and adenosine receptor antagonist ...
