M E Olah et al.
Molecular pharmacology, 45(5), 978-982 (1994-05-01)
The rat A3 adenosine receptor (AR) is a recently characterized AR subtype cloned from testis and brain cDNA libraries. N6-2-(4-Amino-3-[125I]iodophenyl)ethyladenosine, a high affinity A1AR agonist, has served as the only radioligand available for study of the A3AR. The relatively low

European journal of pharmacology, 275(1), 23-29 (1995-02-24)
We have previously shown that acute preischemic adenosine A3 receptor stimulation results in an increased postischemic damage, while chronic stimulation of this receptor diminishes it. Since several pathophysiological phenomena are common for both ischemia and seizures, we have explored the
K A Jacobson et al.
FEBS letters, 336(1), 57-60 (1993-12-20)
The behavioral effects of a selective A3 adenosine receptor agonist 3-IB-MECA (N6-(3-iodobenzyl)-5'-N-methylcarboxamidoadenosine) in mice and the localization of radioligand binding sites in mouse brain were examined. Low levels of A3 adenosine receptors were detected in various regions of the mouse
