The D2 Dopamine Receptor Interferes With the Protective Effect of the A2A Adenosine Receptor on TDP-43 Mislocalization in Experimental Models of Motor Neuron Degeneration

The A2A adenosine receptor (A2AR) and D2 dopamine receptor (D2R) are two G-protein-coupled receptors that can form dimers and negatively regulate their partners. TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) is a nuclear protein that has been implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Mislocalization of...
