Cardiovascular effects of the adenosine A1 receptor agonist N 6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA) decisive for its therapeutic efficacy in sarin poisoning

Abstract: Mortality and occurrence of cholinergic symptoms upon sarin intoxication (144 micro g/kg s.c., approximately 2 x LD50) in rats is completely prevented by treatment with the adenosine A1 receptor agonist N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA, 2 mg/kg i.m.). Previously, we have shown that CPA treatment altered the distribution of sarin into the brain, presumably through its cardiovascular side effects. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the contribution of the cardiodepressant effects of CPA to… Show more

“…Under inert atmosphere, a suspension of 10 (142 mg, 0.75 mmol, 1.00 equivalent), cyclopentylamine (0.22 mL, 2.25 mmol, 3.00 equiv) in dry n-BuOH (1.50 mL) was refluxed for 4 h. The solvent was evaporated and the resulting crude was purified by flash chromatography (CH 2 Cl 2 -MeOH, 9.7:0.3) to get 12 as a white powder (191 mg, 0.52 mmol, 69%). 6-(3-Aminotetrahydrofuranyl)purine (14). Under inert atmosphere, a suspension of 13 (154 mg, 1.00 mmol, 1.00 equivalent), (R)-3-aminotetrahydrofuran hydrochloride (595 mg, 6.00 mmol, 6.00 equivalent) and LiOH (250 mg, 6.00 mmol, 6.00 equivalent) in EtOH (3.5 mL) was refluxed for 6 h. The solution was evaporated and the residue was purified by flash chromatography (CH 2 Cl 2 -MeOH, 9.3:0.7) to get 14 as a white powder (72 mg, 0.35 mmol, 35%).…”

“…Ribavirin (Virazole ® ) is considered the "gold-standard" in the treatment of hepatitis C in association with pegylated interferon-alpha (IFN-α) [10][11][12][13]. Tecadenoson and its congeners are selective A1 receptor agonists, which have been investigated for their use against arrhythmia and atrial fibrillation [14][15][16]. Cladribine (Litak ® ) has been approved for the treatment of symptomatic tricoleukaemia (hairy-cell leukemia).…”

“…AK inhibitors are of considerable interest as novel site-and event-specific indirect adenosine receptor agonists. They exhibit potent antinociceptive, anticonvulsive, and anti-inflammatory activity without the limiting cardiovascular side effects exhibited by direct adenosine receptor agonists [4][5][6][7]. Furthermore, the AK of the protozoa Toxoplasma gondii, which is pathogenic in immunocompromised individuals such as patients suffering from AIDS, has been identified as a novel potential chemotherapeutic drug target [8].…”
