What is N6-Cyclohexyladenosine?

Description

N⁶-Cyclohexyladenosine is an adenosine receptor agonist. It selectively binds to adenosine A₁ receptors in rat cortical membranes (IC₅₀ = 2.3 nM) over A₂ receptors in rat striatal membranes (IC₅₀ = 870 nM). N⁶-Cyclohexyladenosine decreases heart rate and increases coronary flow in a perfused working rat heart model ex vivo (EC₂₅s = 5 and 860 nM, respectively). In vivo, it decreases heart rate and blood pressure in normotensive rats (EC₂₅s = 2.4 and 4.2 μg/kg, respectively). N⁶-Cyclohexyladenosine (100 μM) induces sleep in rats when administered via basal forebrain infusion. N⁶-Cyclohexyladenosine also decreases locomotor activity in mice (ED₅₀ = 60 μg/kg, i.p.).

The Uses of N6-Cyclohexyladenosine

N6-Cyclohexyladenosine is a derivative of Adenosine (A280400), and is used testing adenosine A1 and A2A receptor activation for pharmaceuticals such as antidepressants. N6-Cyclohexyladenosine also is used as a JAK2 inhibitor, blocking STAT3 signalling in human cancer cells.
