The effect of adenosine A(2) receptor agonist 2-[p-(2-carboxyethyl)phenylethylamino]-5'-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (CGS 21680) and antagonist 3,7-dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine (DMPX) on [1-C-13]glucose and [1,2-C-13]acetate metabolism was studied in rats by C-13 magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy and HPLC. In the cortex a significant reduction was observed in the amounts of [2-C-13]GABA and [3-C-13]aspartate from [1-C-13]glucose in CGS 21680. In the subcortex the concentration of labelled [4-C-13]glutamate was increased in both treatment groups. The amounts of [2 + 3-C-13]succinate and [3-C-13]lactate were increased in the CGS 21680 group compared to control, and the DMPX group showed an increase in the total amount of [6-C-13]N-acetyl aspartate compared to control in the subcortex. Astrocyte metabolism was only affected in the cortex as shown by a decrease in the pyruvate carboxylase/pyruvate dehydrognase ratio in glutamate and glutamine in the treatment groups. Labelling from [1,2-C-13]acetate was not much affected by CGS 21680 or DMPX. However, the amount of [1,2-C-13]acetate in cortex and subcortex was reduced in the DMPX group. In the cortex a reduction in the labelling of [3-C-13]GABA in the DMPX group compared to control and an increase in the total amount of taurine in both treatment groups was detected. The present study shows that A(2) receptor agonist and antagonist have similar effects; however, in cortex GABAergic neurones and astrocytes were affected in contrast to subcortex, where glutamatergic neurones showed the greatest changes.
