Adenosine A2A Receptors
Adenosine A2A receptors are members of the adenosine receptor group of G-protein-coupled receptors that also includes A1, A2B and A3. A2A receptors display high expression levels in the spleen, thymus, leukocytes, blood platelets and the olfactory bulb.

Adenosine A2A receptors are members of the adenosine receptor group of G-protein-coupled receptors that also includes A1, A2B and A3. A2A receptors display high expression levels in the spleen, thymus, leukocytes, blood platelets, striatopallidal GABAergic neurons and the olfactory bulb. Lower expression levels are also found in the heart, lungs and blood vessels. A2A receptors mediate a sustained cardioprotective function during cardiac ischemia, inhibit neutrophil degranulation in neutrophil-mediated tissue injury and have been implicated in both neuroprotective and neurodegenerative effects. The human A2A receptor gene is localized on chromosome 22 (22q11.23).
Both A2A and A2B receptors are important in cancer immunology. The tumor microenvironment is hypoxic, which promotes the expression of CD39 and CD73 by immune cells. CD39 and CD73 are ectonucleotidases that convert ATP to adenosine, elevating concentrations of adenosine locally. Adenosine is a crucial mediator of altered immune function in cancer as it binds A2A and A2B receptors on lymphocytes silencing the antitumor immune response.
