IC50 values for A1 receptors were obtained from antagonism of binding of 1 nM [3H]cyclohexyladenosine to rat cerebral cortical membranes. IC50 values for A1 receptors were obtained from antagonism of 3H-labeled cyclic AMP accumulation elicited by 15 µM 2-chloroadenosine in [3H]adenine-labeled guinea pig cerebral cortical slices. Ki values were calculated from the equation Ki = IC50/(1 + concentration of adenosine analogue/Ka for adenosine analogue). Values are means ± SEM for two to four experiments. Each experiment contained triplicate determinations.
