    Journal: Eur J Pharmacol; 1996 Jun 03; 305(1-3):123-6. PubMed ID: 8813542.
    Abstract:
    The influence of adenosine A1 (N6-cyclopentyladenosine, CPA) and A2 (2-[4-(2-carboxylethyl)phenethylamino]-5'-N-ethylcarboxamido -adenosine hydrochloride, CGS 21680) receptor agonists on SKF 38393-induced electroencephalographic (EEG) arousal was studied in rabbits. While CPA (0.1 mg/kg i.v.) significantly prevented the EEG effects of SKF 38393, CGS 21680 (0.2 mg/kg i.v.) did not affect them. These results demonstrate that adenosine A1 receptors can modulate dopamine D1 receptor-induced EEG arousal and show, for the first time, that adenosine-dopamine interactions are involved in brain functions other than motor activity.
