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. Recent structure-function and computer modeling studies based on the structure of mammalian rhodopsin suggest that the upper part of

Agonism at A 1 receptors was
We investigated the role of the A 3 adenosine receptor in cells of the astroglial lineage (both rat primary astrocytes and human astrocytoma ADF cells) by means of the selective A 3 agonists N 6 -(3iodobenzyl)-adenosine-5ยข-N-methyluronamide (IB-MECA) and CI-IB-MECA, and by utilizing the selective A
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
Adenosine, a ubiquitous nucleoside, is released into the extracellular environment from metabolically active or stressed cells. It binds to cells through specific A1, A 2A , A 2B , and A3 G-protein-associated cell-surface receptors, thus acting as a signal-transduction molecule by regulating the lev
Xanthine and adenosine derivatives, known to bind to recombinant rat A 3 adenosine receptors stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells, were characterized in a functional assay consisting of activation of A 3 receptor-stimulated binding of [ 35 S]GTPฮณS in rat RBL-2H3 cell membranes. 1,3-Dibuty
