James S, Hawkins V, Falquetto B, Ruskin D, Masino S, Moreira T, et al.
eNeuro
. 2019 Jan;
5(6).
PMID: 30627640
A subset of neurons in the retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN) function as respiratory chemoreceptors by regulating depth and frequency of breathing in response to changes in tissue CO/H. The activity of...

Masino S, Kawamura Jr M, Ruskin D, Geiger J, Boison D
Epilepsy Res
. 2011 Sep;
100(3):229-38.
PMID: 21880467
ATP and adenosine are purines that play dual roles in cell metabolism and neuronal signaling. Acting at the A(1) receptor (A(1)R) subtype, adenosine acts directly on neurons to inhibit excitability...

Masino S, Kawamura M, Wasser C, Wasser C, Pomeroy L, Ruskin D
Curr Neuropharmacol
. 2010 Mar;
7(3):257-68.
PMID: 20190967
For many years the neuromodulator adenosine has been recognized as an endogenous anticonvulsant molecule and termed a "retaliatory metabolite." As the core molecule of ATP, adenosine forms a unique link...

Johansson B, Halldner L, Dunwiddie T, Masino S, Poelchen W, Gimenez-Llort L, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2001 Jul;
98(16):9407-12.
PMID: 11470917
Caffeine is believed to act by blocking adenosine A(1) and A(2A) receptors (A(1)R, A(2A)R), indicating that some A(1) receptors are tonically activated. We generated mice with a targeted disruption of...

Masino S, Latini S, Bordoni F, Pedata F, Dunwiddie T
Synapse
. 2001 May;
41(1):58-64.
PMID: 11354014
Previous studies have demonstrated that when the temperature of hippocampal brain slices is increased, there is a corresponding depression of synaptic potentials mediated by an increased activation of presynaptic adenosine...

Dunwiddie T, Masino S
Annu Rev Neurosci
. 2001 Apr;
24:31-55.
PMID: 11283304
Adenosine is a modulator that has a pervasive and generally inhibitory effect on neuronal activity. Tonic activation of adenosine receptors by adenosine that is normally present in the extracellular space...

Masino S, Dunwiddie T
Neuroscience
. 2000 Dec;
101(4):907-12.
PMID: 11113339
Previous studies have shown that increasing the temperature of rat hippocampal brain slices from 32.5 to 38.5 degrees C initiates a profound, adenosine-mediated decrease in excitatory synaptic transmission in the...

Masino S, Mesches M, Bickford P, Dunwiddie T
Neurosci Lett
. 1999 Dec;
274(2):91-4.
PMID: 10553945
Brief exposure to conditions that generate free radicals inhibits synaptic transmission in hippocampal slices, most likely via a presynaptic mechanism. Because other physiologically stressful conditions that generate free radicals, such...

J Neurosci
. 1999 Mar;
19(6):1932-9.
PMID: 10066246
Although extracellular adenosine concentrations in brain are increased markedly by a variety of stimuli such as hypoxia and ischemia, it has been difficult to demonstrate large increases in adenosine with...

J Neurosci Methods
. 1996 Sep;
68(1):27-37.
PMID: 8884610
An important parameter often investigated in the characterization of cortical functional organization is the areal extent of functional modules. Because it allows the visualization of functional modules with high spatial...
