Modulation of glutamatergic neurotransmission by metabotropic glutamate2/3 (mGlu2/3) receptor agonists effectively treats seemingly diverse neuropsychiatric illness such as generalized anxiety disorder and schizophrenia. Activation of adenosine A(1) heteroceptors, like mGlu2 autoreceptors, decreases glutamate release in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC)

Adenosine is a defensive metabolite that is critical to anoxic neuronal survival in the freshwater turtle. Channel arrest of the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is a hallmark of the turtle's remarkable anoxia tolerance and adenosine A1 receptor (A1R)-mediated depression of normoxic

Since central activation of A1 adenosine receptors (A1ARs) plays an important role in the induction of the hypothermic and hypometabolic torpid state in hibernating mammals, we investigated the potential for the A1AR agonist N6-cyclohexyladenosine to induce a hypothermic, torpor-like state
