ADORA2A

Overview

ADORA2A encodes the adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR), a G-protein-coupled receptor that suppresses T cell effector function in adenosine-rich tumor microenvironments. In the context of anti-tumor immunity, adenosine signaling through A2AR represents an immunosuppressive axis exploited by tumors; blocking this receptor is a therapeutic strategy to restore T cell activity.
