Parallel investigations of the effects of adenosine on evoked potentials and cyclic AMP accumulation in hippocampus slices of the rat
Abstract
In slices of rat hippocampus, adenosine and its receptor agonist, 2-chloro-adenosine, were both found to (a) enhance the intracellular accumulation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and (b) depress neuronal evoked responses to electrical stimulation. The differences in the dose/effect curves for the biochemical and electrophysiological changes cast doubt on a causal relationship between the two effects.
