Comparison of Subtypes

Adenosine receptors
Receptor Gene Mechanism Effects Agonists Antagonists
A1 ADORA1 Gi/o → cAMP↑/↓
  • Inhibition
    • ↓ vesicle release
  • Bronchoconstriction
  • decrease heart rate
  • N6-Cyclopentyladenosine
  • Adenosine
  • CCPA
  • 2'-MeCCPA
  • GR 79236
  • SDZ WAG 994
  • Caffeine

Famous quotes containing the word comparison:

    “In everyone’s youthful dreams, philosophy is still vaguely but inseparably, and with singular truth, associated with the East, nor do after years discover its local habitation in the Western world. In comparison with the philosophers of the East, we may say that modern Europe has yet given birth to none.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
