Caffeine has a dual influence on NMDA receptor-mediated glutamatergic transmiss...
Silva Martins, Robertta; D.M., Rombo; Ribeiro, Joana; Meneses, Carlos; Peralva Borges Martins, Vladimir Pedro; Ribeiro, Joaquim A.; Vaz, Sandra H.Caffeine, a stimulant largely consumed around the world, is a non-selective adenosine receptor antagonist, and therefore caffeine actions at synapses usually, but not always, mirror those of adenosine. Importantly, different adenosine receptors with opposing regulatory actions co-exist at synapses. Through both inhibitory and excitatory high-affinity receptors (A(1)R and A(2)R, respectively), adenosine affects ...
