The effects of novel, selective adenosine (ADO) A3 receptor antagonists of diverse structure on cells of the human HL-60 leukemia and U-937 lymphoma cell lines were examined. Both 3-ethyl 5-benzyl 2-methyl-6-phenyl-4-phenylethynyl-1,4-(+/-)-dihydropyridine-3, 5-dicarboxylate (MRS 1191, 0.5 microM) and 6-carboxy-methyl-5, 9-dihydro-9-methyl-2-phenyl-[1,2,4]-triazolo [5,1-a][2,7]naphthyridine

The possible cardioprotective roles of adenosine A1 and A3 receptors were investigated in a cardiac myocyte model of injury. The adenosine A3 receptor is a novel cardiac receptor capable of mediating potentially important cardioprotective functions. Prolonged hypoxia with glucose deprivation

The adenosine A3 receptor is expressed in brain, but the consequences of activation of this receptor on electrophysiological activity are unknown. We have characterized the actions of a selective adenosine A3 receptor agonist, 2-chloro-N6-(3-lodobenzyl)-adenosine-5'-N-methyluronamide (Cl-IB-MECA), and a selective A3 receptor
