In the hippocampus, the neuromodulatory role of adenosine depends on a balance between
inhibitory A1 responses and facilitatory A2A responses. Since the presynaptic effects of …

Adenosine has been shown to increase the release of neurotransmitters by stimulation of
adenosine A2 receptors. This effect probably depends on Ca2+ entry into presynaptic nerve …

A1 adenosine receptors efficiently modulate the excitatory synaptic transmission in
hippocampus. Here we report that in addition to previously known modulatory action on the …

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 …

Adenosine tonically inhibits synaptic transmission through actions at A1 receptors. It also
facilitates synaptic transmission, but it is unclear if this facilitation results from pre-and/or …

Adenosine is a neuromodulator in the hippocampus acting mainly via inhibitory A1 receptors
but also via facilitatory A2A receptors. We now investigated the transducing system operated …

The modulation of high-threshold Ca current (ICa) by adenosine receptors was studied
using the voltage clamp method on acutely dissociated guinea pig hippocampal CA3 …

Adenosine acts as a neuromodulator in the hippocampus essentially through activation of
inhibitory A1 receptors. Using single‐cell PCR analysis, we found that CA1 pyramidal cells …

We describe the immunocytochemical distribution of adenosine A1 receptors in the rat
hippocampus. Adenosine A1 receptor-like immunoreactivity was seen on the cell soma and …

The effects of the adenosine A1 receptor agonist, N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA), on both
the increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+] i) and on the release of …
