Abstract
: In recent years, the use of multi-target compounds has become an increasingly pursued strategy to treat complex pathologies, including cerebral ischemia. Adenosine and its receptors (A1AR, A2AAR, A2BAR, A3AR) are known to play a crucial role in synaptic transmission either in normoxic or ischemic-like conditions. Previous data demonstrate that the selective antagonism of A2AAR or A2BAR delays anoxic depolarization (AD) appearance, an unequivocal sign of neuronal injury induced by a severe oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) insult in the hippocampus. Furthermore, the stimulation of A2AARs or A2BARs by respective selective agonists, CGS21680 and BAY60-6583, increases pre-synaptic neurotransmitter release, as shown by the decrease in paired-pulse facilitation (PPF) at Schaffer collateral-CA1 synapses. In the present research, we investigated the effect/s of the newly synthesized dual A2AAR/A2BAR antagonist, P626, in preventing A2AAR- and/or A2BAR-mediated effects by extracellular recordings of synaptic potentials in the CA1 rat hippocampal slices. We demonstrated that P626 prevented PPF reduction induced by CGS21680 or BAY60-6583 and delayed, in a concentration-dependent manner, AD appearance during a severe OGD. In conclusion, P626 may represent a putative neuroprotective compound for stroke treatment with the possible translational advantage of reducing side effects and bypassing differences in pharmacokinetics due to combined treatment.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
