The rat A3 adenosine receptor (AR) is a recently characterized AR subtype cloned from testis and brain cDNA libraries. N6-2-(4-Amino-3-[125I]iodophenyl)ethyladenosine, high affinity A1AR agonist, has served as the only radioligand available for study of A3AR. relatively low N6-2-(4-amino-3-[125I] iodophenyl)ethyladenosine A3AR its greater selectivity necessitate development more appropriate radioligands analysis.

A novel adenosine receptor, the A3 has recently been cloned. We have systematically investigated hitherto largely unexplored structure-activity relationships (SARs) for binding at receptors, using 125I-N6-2-(4-aminophenyl)ethyladenosine as a radioligand and membranes from Chinese hamster ovary cells stably transfected with rat A3-cDNA. As is case A1 A2a substitutions N6 5' positions of adenosine, prototypic agonist ligand, may yield fairly potent compounds. However, highest affinity...

Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas disease, is a protozoan parasite transmitted to humans by blood-sucking triatomine vectors. However, and despite its utmost biological epidemiological relevance, T. cruzi development inside digestive tract insect remains poorly understood process.Here we showed that Gp35/50 kDa mucins, major surface glycoproteins from insect-dwelling forms, are involved in attachment internal cuticle rectal ampoule, critical step leading differentiation into...

Abstract In this article we have focused on the use of selenium in catalysis along with proposed reaction mechanisms. With increasing interest chemistry, highlighted most significant features subject, mainly last years. Selenium-containing catalysts a key role many transformations; for example, oxidation reactions that are performed under very mild and controlled conditions. addition, utilizing weak selenium–oxygen bonding interaction has proved to be useful as catalytic approach specific...
