Inhibition of gastric acid secretion by adenosine receptor stimulation in the rat. 1987

C Scarpignato, and R Tramacere, and L Zappia, and P Del Soldato

The effects of adenosine and its metabolically stable derivative L-phenylisopropyladenosine (L-PIA), acting mainly on A1 receptors, on gastric acid secretion were studied in the rat. Although inactive by intraduodenal route, subcutaneous adenosine significantly inhibited acid secretion. This inhibition, however, was not dose-dependent. On the contrary, L-PIA was able to decrease dose-dependently acid output by both subcutaneous and intraduodenal route, its ED50 being 0.11 mg/kg subcutaneously and 0.24 mg/kg intraduodenally. The inhibitory effect of L-PIA was reduced by prior administration of theophylline. These results suggest that activation of A1-receptors inhibits acid secretion in the rat.

D011983 Receptors, Purinergic Cell surface proteins that bind PURINES with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells. The best characterized classes of purinergic receptors in mammals are the P1 receptors, which prefer ADENOSINE, and the P2 receptors, which prefer ATP or ADP.
