The gene encodes a protein which is one of several receptor subtypes for adenosine. The activity of the encoded protein, a G protein-coupled receptor family member, is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase, which induce synthesis of intracellular cAMP. The A 2A receptor binds with the G s protein at the intracellular site of ...
The adenosine receptors (or P1 receptors [1]) are a class of purinergic G protein-coupled receptors with adenosine as the endogenous ligand. [2] There are four known types of adenosine receptors in humans: A 1 , A 2A , A 2B and A 3 ; each is encoded by a different gene .

Cancer Therapy by Inhibition of Negative Immune Regulation (CTLA4, PD1) A2AR & A2BR: The Adenosine A2A receptor is regarded as an important checkpoint in cancer therapy because adenosine in the immune microenvironment, leading to the activation of the A2a receptor, is negative immune feedback loop and the tumor microenvironment has relatively high concentrations of adenosine. [27]
These receptors enable the regulation of multiple processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, function, and death. [47] The activation of the adenosine A1 receptor is required for osteoclast differentiation and function, whereas the activation of the adenosine A2A receptor inhibits osteoclast function. The other three adenosine ...
The alpha-2 (α 2) adrenergic receptor (or adrenoceptor) is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) associated with the G i heterotrimeric G-protein. It consists of three highly homologous subtypes, including α 2A-, α 2B-, and α 2C-adrenergic. Some species other than humans express a fourth α 2D-adrenergic receptor as well. [1]
A 2A receptor antagonists may prevent hepatic cirrhosis, and pentoxifylline may inhibit phosphodiesterase and provide renal protection. [6]The A 2A receptor antagonists may be used for treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (), because of the receptors ability to regulate neurotransmission in the basal ganglia and cortex, particularly dopaminergic and glutamatergic signaling.
