A recent paper in Cardiovascular Research from Hove-Madsen and colleagues [1] has investigated the role of the adenosine A2A receptor in human atrial myocytes. Elegant confocal images show that this receptor is localized at the level of the Z line in the myocyte. Their paper then proceeds to address an important physiological question; the role of this receptor. No effect was found on the amplitude or voltage-dependence of the L-type Ca
