  2. Adenosine A2A receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine_A2A_receptor

    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 ...

    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]

    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.

    Caffeine keeps you awake by blocking adenosine receptors. Each type of adenosine receptor has different functions, although with some overlap. [3] For instance, both A 1 receptors and A 2A play roles in the heart, regulating myocardial oxygen consumption and coronary blood flow, while the A 2A receptor also has broader anti-inflammatory effects throughout the body.

  6. SCH-58261 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCH-58261

    SCH-58261 is a drug which acts as a potent and selective antagonist for the adenosine receptor A 2A, with more than 50x selectivity for A 2A over other adenosine receptors. [1] It has been used to investigate the mechanism of action of caffeine, which is a mixed A 1 / A 2A antagonist, and has shown that the A 2A receptor is primarily responsible for the stimulant and ergogenic effects of ...

    Preladenant (developmental code name SCH-420814) is a drug that was developed by Schering-Plough which acted as a potent and selective antagonist of the adenosine A 2A receptor. [1] It was being researched as a potential treatment for Parkinson's disease . [ 2 ]
