Relationship between the adenosine A1 receptor and cGMP levels in the hippocampus: implications on neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity

The cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP are second messengers whose levels are modulated by G proteins-coupled receptors, and regulate multiple brain functions, including neurotransmission, memory and synaptic plasticity. The adenosine A1 receptor is highly expressed in the hippocampus where it inhibit...
