Selective activation of Gαob by an adenosine A1 receptor agonist elicits analgesia without cardiorespiratory depression

Wall et al. describe the selective activation of an adenosine A1 receptor-mediated intracellular pathway that provides potent analgesia in the absence of sedation or cardiorespiratory depression, paving the way for novel medicines based on the far-reaching concept of selective Gα agonism.
