Patent

CA 2626020

The invention relates to antagonists of the adenosine A2A receptor, which can be used for the preparation of medicaments for auricular fibrillation in mammals, including humans. It has been found that the A2A adenosine receptor is present in human auricular cardiomyocytes and involved in the basic pathological mechanisms of auricular fibrillation. The use of A2A antagonists is advantageous over other known agents in that A2A antagonists are directed specifically to patients with auricular fibrillation.

Les antagonistes du récepteur d'adénosine A2A selon l'invention sont utiles dans la préparation de médicaments contre la fibrillation auriculaire chez les mammifères, y compris chez l'homme. On a découvert que le récepteur d'adénosine A2a est présent dans les cardiomyocytes auriculaires humains et qu'il participe aux mécanismes pathologiques fondamentaux de la fibrillation auriculaire. Il est particulièrement avantageux d'utiliser des antagonistes A2A plutôt que d'autres agents déjà connus dans la technique car ils s'adressent spécifiquement à des patients atteints d'une fibrillation auriculaire.
