ABSTRACT
Two dihydropyridine compounds, Bay K8644 (a calcium entry activator) and nifedipine (a calcium entry blocker), were found to inhibit the binding of [3H]phenylisopropyladenosine ([3H]PIA) to A1 adenosine receptors in rat cerebral cortex membranes with comparable potencies (IC50 10-30 microM). Scatchard analyses indicated that both Bay K8644 and nifedipine inhibited the binding of [3H]PIA by increasing the KD but without significant effect on the Bmax. When tested at 100 microM, neither Bay K8644 nor nifedipine showed a significant effect on [3H]-p-aminoclonidine ([3H]PAC; alpha 2-adrenergic receptor), [3H]dihydroalprenolol ([3H]DHA; beta-adrenergic receptor), [3H]spiperone (dopamine receptor), and [3H]nitrobenzylthioinosine [( 3H]NBMPR; nucleoside transporter) binding. In the presence of 10 mM Mg2+, the ability of 2-chloroadenosine (2-Cl-Ad, an A1 adenosine receptor agonist) to displace [3H]PIA binding was increased. Conversely, the potencies of 1,3-diethyl-8-phenylxanthine (DPX; an A1 receptor antagonist), Bay K8644 and nifedipine in inhibiting [3H]PIA binding were unchanged. It is suggested that both Bay K8644 and nifedipine may act as antagonists of adenosine A1 receptors, in addition to their well-known effects on calcium channels.
