There is evidence that adenosine may participate in the regulation of sleep and wakefulness in the mammalian central nervous system. To understand whether the adenosine receptor subtypes, A, and A > , . , , are involved in the modulation of sleep and waking, we carried out electroencephalographic (E

## Abstract Pregnant Wistar rats were orally treated with the adenosine receptor agonist Rβphenylisopropyladenosine (RβPIA) throughout the gestational period, and the status of the metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptor/phospholipase C transduction pathway from maternal and fetal brain was analyzed
Behavioral and biochemical studies suggest that a negative interaction exists between adenosine A 1 and dopamine D 1 receptors in the brain and that this may contribute to the psychomotor effects of adenosine receptor agonists and antagonists. We examined the functional significance of A 1 and D 1 r
