The role of adenosine receptor-mediated signaling was examined in the alcohol withdrawal syndrome. CD-1 mice received a liquid diet containing ethanol (6.7%, v/v) or a control liquid diet that were abruptly discontinued after 14 days of treatment. Mice consuming ethanol showed a progressive increase

## Abstract Adenosine plays a role in regulating the contractile function of the heart. This includes a positive ionotropic action via the adenosine A~2A~ receptor (A~2A~R) and an inhibition of Ξ²~1~βadrenergic receptorβinduced ionotropy (antiadrenergic action) via the adenosine A~1~ receptor (A~1~R
Previous investigations suggest that the expression of K+ channels in cultured rat microglia is related to the activation status of these cells. Both, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and agents that raise intracellular cyclic AMP have been shown to inhibit microglial proliferation. LPS also regulates the m
