  1. 6. Adenosine A2A receptors : characterization, localization, G protein coupling and interactions with dopamine D2 receptors

    Författare :Björn Kull; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Adenosine receptors; receptor-receptor interactions; G proteins; species differences;

    Sammanfattning : Adenosine not only has a role in cellular energy metabolism but is recognized as an intercellular messenger with an important function in physiology and pathophysiology. It exerts its effects via a family of G protein coupled receptors of which four members have been cloned from several species: A, A2A, A2B and A3. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Adenosine receptors and stress : studies using methylmercury, caffeine and hypoxia

    Författare :Olga Björklund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Adenosine; adenosine receptors; knock-out mice; methylmercury; caffeine; hypoxia; cobalt chloride;

    Sammanfattning : Brain development is a precisely organized process that can be disturbed by various stress factors present in the diet (e.g. exposure to xenobiotics) as well as insults such as decreased oxygen supply. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Physiology and pathophysiology of central adenosine A1 and A2A receptors

    Författare :Linda Halldner Henriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Adenosine; A1 receptor; A2A receptor; knock-out mouse; in situ hybridization; receptor autoradiography; sleep; hypoxia-ischemia; behavior; motor activity; caffeine; tolerance;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to further investigate the individual roles of central adenosine A1 and A2A receptors in the physiological and pathophysiological effects of adenosine. In addition, the characteristics of different adenosine receptor ligands were studied. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Adenosine Regulation of Neutrophil Function

    Författare :Stefan Zalavary; Bertil Fredholm; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The neutrophil granulocyte is an essential component of the human immune system. When rrricrobes invade the body, the highly motile neutrophils quickly leave the vascular compartment and approach, engulf and kill the intruders by releasing a battery of antimicrobial substances.
