Thebromine Targets Adenosine Receptors to Control Hippocampal Neuronal Function and Damage

Theobromine is a caffeine metabolite most abundant in dark chocolate, of which consumption is linked with a lower risk of cognitive decline. However, the mechanisms through which theobromine affects neuronal function remain ill-defined. Using electrophysiological recordings in mouse hippocampal syna...
