Adenosine receptor antagonist

An adenosine receptor antagonist is a drug which acts as an antagonist of one or more of the adenosine receptors.^[1] The best known are xanthines and their derivatives (natural: caffeine,^[2] theophylline,^[3] and theobromine; and synthetic: PSB-1901^[4]), but there are also non-xanthine representatives (e.g. ISAM-140,^[5] ISAM-R316,^[6] etrumadenant,^[7] and AZD-4635^[8])
