โฆ Synopsis
This symposium provided a forum for presentations by the relevant groups on ligand design and ligand binding on the adenosine A, receptor. Agreement appears to exist that the "N6-C8" model of ligand binding to the receptor i s the preferred mode. A consensus has not yet been reached on the actual placement of the ligand in the receptor and the exact amino acids which interact in its binding. Two viable models exist at present. Both can be tested with selective site-directed mutagenic studies on the A, receptor as well as with additional designed ligands.

A 1 adenosine receptors (A 1 ARs) mediate the effects of adenosine in many tissues, making this receptor subtype an extremely important transducer of adenosine action.

## Abstract Adenosine is a ubiquitous neuromodulator, which carries out its biological task by stimulating four cell surface receptors (A~1~, A~2A~, A~2B~, and A~3~). Adenosine receptors (ARs) are members of the superfamily of G proteinโcoupled receptors (GPCRs). Their discovery opened up new avenu
Adenosine regulates many physiological functions through specific cell membrane receptors. On the basis of pharmacological studies and molecular cloning, four different adenosine receptors have been identified and classified as A 1 , A 2A , A 2B , and A 3 . These adenosine receptors are members of t
