Organ Species Diabetic model Nucleot(s)ide/stimuli Purinergic receptor Vascular effect Reference
Heart Swine STZ and high-fat diet Up4A A2AR, P2X7R, P2Y1R Coronary relaxation - [70]
Ossabaw miniature swine Metabolic syndrome ADO/the ADO analogue A2BR CBF/coronary relaxation - [65]
Mouse STZ The A2AR agonist A2AR CBF/coronary relaxation↑ [64]

ADO: adenosine; CBF: coronary blood flow; STZ: streptozotocin; Up4A: uridine adenosine tetraphosphate; ↑: increased effect; ↓: decreased effect; −: no effect vs. control group.
