Recent improvements in the development of A2B adenosine receptor agonists

Abstract: Adenosine is known to exert most of its physiological functions by acting as local modulator at four receptor subtypes named A 1 , A 2A , A 2B and A 3 (ARs). Principally as a result of the difficulty in identifying potent and selective agonists, the A 2B AR is the least extensively characterised of the adenosine receptors family. Despite these limitations, growing understanding of the physiological meaning of this target indicates promising therapeutic perspectives for specific ligands. As A 2B AR signalling s… Show more

“…3). Thus, combinations of narrowly defined modifications have resulted in compounds that interact selectively with A 2B AR [11,46] or that activate the A 2B AR along with the A 2A AR (MRS3997, 27 ) [47]. …”

“…Furthermore, also the evaluation of this receptor as pharmacological target, and then of its therapeutic application, was hampered by the lack of agonist radioligands. Compounds with a detectable activity on A 2B AR were reported in recent literature [28,29], and can be classified into adenosine-like and non-adenosine-like ligands.…”

“…But in the last years, several ligands able to activate A 2B AR have been identified [28,29], and a phenyl pyridinesulfenyl acetamide derivative is currently under preclinical investigation in the treatment of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disorders.…”
