To investigate the effects of age on adenosine A1 receptor (ADORA1) mediated vascular, inotropic and chronotropic functional responses in isolated rat hearts. NECA (5'-(N-ethylcarboxamido)adenosine) and R-PIA (R-N6-(1-methyl-2-phenylethyl)adenosine) concentration-response curves were produced in Langendorff prepared hearts isolated from immature (6 weeks)

Adenosine receptors (ARs) are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediating the neuromodulatory actions of adenosine that influence emotional, cognitive, motor, and other functions in the central nervous system (CNS). Previous studies show complex formation between ARs and metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs)

It is well known that the uncoupling between local cerebral glucose utilization (LCGU) and local cerebral blood flow (LCBF), i.e. decrease in LCBF rates with high LCGU, is frequently associated with seizure-induced neuronal damage. This study was performed to assess

1. It is reported that alpha1-receptors and adenosine A1-receptors are involved in the ischaemic preconditioning (PC) effect on infarct size (IS). However, it is still unclear to what extent alpha1-receptors and adenosine A1-receptors contribute to the mechanism of PC. Therefore

We examined the antiallodynic interaction between gabapentin and adenosine A1 receptor agonist, N(6)-(2-phenylisopropyl)-adenosine R-(-)isomer (R-PIA), in a rat model of nerve ligation injury. Rats were prepared with ligation of left L5-6 spinal nerves and intrathecal catheter implantation for drug administration.
