In the cholinergic basal forebrain, we found previously that the extracellular adenosine concentration increase that accompanies sleep deprivation, acting via the A1 receptor, led to activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor-kappa B and to the upregulation of A1 adenosine receptor mRNA. We thus began to examine intracellular signaling mechanisms. We report here that adenosine, acting in a dose-dependent manner and predominantly via A1 receptors, stimulated IP3 receptor-regulated calcium release from intracellular stores. To the best of our knowledge, this calcium signaling pathway effect is a novel action of the Gi-coupled A1 adenosine receptor in neurons. Moreover, this calcium mobilization was not seen at all in noncholinergic neurons but was present in a large proportion of cholinergic neurons. These data suggest a potential role for a calcium-signaling pathway in adenosine-induced long-term effects of sleep deprivation and a key role for cholinergic neurons in this process.

Key words: adenosine; cholinergic basal forebrain; A1 adenosine receptor; intracellular calcium mobilization; inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor activation; sleep deprivation
