摘要
The effects of adenosine, 5'-(N-ethyl)carboxamidoadenosine (NECA), 2-chloroadenosine (2-CA), No-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA) and N6(R-2-phenylisopropyl)-adenosine (R-PIA) on the tone of phenylephrine-constricted guinea-pig isolated aorta have been examined. For aortic relaxation the analogues exhibited the following rank order of potency: NECA > adenosine > 2-CA > R-PIA > CHA. This is consistent with previous reports that relaxation of this tissue is mediated by the adenosine A2 receptor. An unexpected finding was that R-PIA, 2-CA and CHA all induced contractions at concentrations lower than were required for relaxation, giving a biphasic dose-response curve. Neither NECA nor adenosine contracted the aorta. This is consistent with activation of vascular A1 receptors. An A1-selective concentration of the antagonist l,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentyl xanthine abolished the contraction elicited by R-PIA in the guinea-pig aorta. This further suggests that the contraction is mediated by a1 receptors. © 1990.
