CCPA

Chemical properties

Solid

The Uses of CCPA

Adenosine receptors are for treating central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Adenosine A1 receptor agonists include e.g. CCPA, 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine, R-phenylisopropyl adenosine. A2A rec eptor agonists include e.g. regadenoson (Lexiscan), apadenoson, binodenoson.

The Uses of CCPA

2-Chloro-N6-cyclopentyl Adenosine is a selective adenosine receptor agonist (1,2). It inhibits angiotensin II induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy via the calcineurin signaling pathway (2).

The Uses of CCPA

2-Chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CCPA) may be used as an A1 adenosine receptor agonist with high selectivity. CCPA is often used with other adenosine receptor agonists and antagonist to resolve A(1), A(2A) and A(3) receptor functions. These include DPCPX (A(1) receptor antagonist), 4-(2-[7-amino-2-(2-furyl)[1,2,4]triazolo[2,3-α][1,3,5]triazin-5-ylamino]ethyl)phenol (A(2A) receptor antagonist), and 4-[2-[[6-amino-9-(N-ethyl-β-D-ribofuranuronamidosyl)-9H-purin-2-yl]amino]ethyl]benzenepropanoic acid hydrochloride (A(2A) receptor agonist), and Cl-IB-MECA, (A(3)) receptor agonist).

What are the applications of Application

2-Chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine is a potent and selective Adenosine A1-R agonist

Biological Activity

Potent and selective adenosine A 1 receptor agonist (K i values are 0.8, 2300 and 42 nM for human A 1 , A 2A and A 3 receptors respectively; EC 50 = 18800 nM for hA 2B ). Centrally active following systemic administration in vivo .

Biochem/physiol Actions

A1 adenosine receptor agonist with high selectivity: reportedly 10,000-fold for A1 over A2 receptors.
