Coaggregation, Cointernalization, and Codesensitization of Adenosine A2A Receptors and Dopamine D2Receptors*
- J. Hillion, M. Canals, +15 authors K. Fuxe
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 17 May 2002
Antagonistic and reciprocal interactions are known to exist between adenosine and dopamine receptors in the striatum. In the present study, double immunofluorescence experiments with confocal laser… Expand
Presynaptic Control of Striatal Glutamatergic Neurotransmission by Adenosine A1–A2A Receptor Heteromers
- F. Ciruela, V. Casadó, +15 authors R. Franco
- Chemistry, Medicine
- The Journal of Neuroscience
- 15 February 2006
The functional role of heteromers of G-protein-coupled receptors is a matter of debate. In the present study, we demonstrate that heteromerization of adenosine A1 receptors (A1Rs) and A2A receptors… Expand
Alternatively activated microglia and macrophages in the central nervous system
- R. Franco, D. Fernández-Suárez

- 1 August 2015
Macrophages are important players in the fight against viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic infections. From a resting state they may undertake two activation pathways, the classical known as M1,… Expand
Striatal Adenosine A2A and Cannabinoid CB1 Receptors Form Functional Heteromeric Complexes that Mediate the Motor Effects of Cannabinoids
- P. Carriba, O. Ortiz, +14 authors S. Ferré
- Biology, Medicine
- Neuropsychopharmacology
- 14 March 2007
The mechanism of action responsible for the motor depressant effects of cannabinoids, which operate through centrally expressed cannabinoid CB1 receptors, is still a matter of debate. In the present… Expand
Synergistic interaction between adenosine A2A and glutamate mGlu5 receptors: Implications for striatal neuronal function
- S. Ferré, M. Karcz-Kubicha, +9 authors F. Ciruela
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
- 20 August 2002
The physiological meaning of the coexpression of adenosine A2A receptors and group I metabotropic glutamate receptors in γ- aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic striatal neurons is intriguing. Here we… Expand
Detection of heteromerization of more than two proteins by sequential BRET-FRET
- P. Carriba, Gemma Navarro, +9 authors R. Franco
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Nature Methods
- 2 July 2008
Identification of higher-order oligomers in the plasma membrane is essential to decode the properties of molecular networks controlling intercellular communication. We combined bioluminescence… Expand
Identification of Dopamine D1–D3 Receptor Heteromers
- D. Marcellino, S. Ferré, +12 authors R. Franco
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 19 September 2008
The function of dopamine D3 receptors present in the striatum has remained elusive. In the present study evidence is provided for the existence of dopamine D1–D3 receptor heteromers and for an… Expand
Adenosine A2A-Dopamine D2 Receptor-Receptor Heteromerization
- M. Canals, D. Marcellino, +11 authors R. Franco
- Chemistry, Computer Science
- Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 21 November 2003
There is evidence for strong functional antagonistic interactions between adenosine A2A receptors (A2ARs) and dopamine D2 receptors (D2Rs). Although a close physical interaction between both… Expand
An update on adenosine A2A-dopamine D2 receptor interactions: implications for the function of G protein-coupled receptors.
