A3 adenosine receptors in human astrocytoma cells: agonist-mediated desensitization, internalization, and down-regulation.
A(3) adenosine receptor activation has been previously demonstrated to result in both neuroprotective and neurodegenerative effects, depending upon specific pathophysiological conditions. This dual effect may depend on receptor regulation mechanisms that are able to change receptor availability and/or function. In the present study, we investigated desensitization, internalization, and down-reg...

متن کاملRegulation of μ-opioid receptors: desensitization, phosphorylation, internalization, and tolerance.
Morphine and related µ-opioid receptor (MOR) agonists remain among the most effective drugs known for acute relief of severe pain. A major problem in treating painful conditions is that tolerance limits the long-term utility of opioid agonists. Considerable effort has been expended on developing an understanding of the molecular and cellular processes that underlie acute MOR signaling, short-te...
متن کاملAdenosine A2a receptors induce heterologous desensitization of chemokine receptors.
Adenosine, released by cells in an injurious or hypoxic environment, possesses potent anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the production of proinflammatory cytokines and superoxide anions (O2-). We hypothesized that adenosine compounds also induced heterologous desensitization of chemokine receptors, which played a critical role in leukocyte trafficking. Our studies using adenosine receptor...
متن کاملLigand-induced phosphorylation, clustering, and desensitization of A1 adenosine receptors.
Through immunocytochemistry with the use of antibodies against A1 adenosine receptors (A1Rs) and confocal microscopy, we show that stimulation of A1Rs by the agonist (R)-phenylisopropyladenosine [(R)-PIA] caused a rapid (5-15 min) aggregation (clustering) of receptor molecules on the surface of DDT1MF-2 cells. Internalization of the chronically stimulated receptor was slower and occurred concom...
