Computerized Modeling of Adenosine Triphosphate, Adenosine Triarsenate and Adenosine Trivanadate [PDF]
Computerized molecular models of adenosine triphosphate, adenosine tri-arsenate and adenosine trivanadate have been generated using the molecular mechanics technique. The analysis of structural parameters indicated that, at least theoretically, adenosine

Purinergic Regulation of Food and Fat Intakes in Broiler’s Central Nervous System [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Adenosine has many physiological roles in the brain, and in rodents, it changes food intake when applied centrally. OBJECTIVES: We investigated the effect of central injection of the purine molecule adenosine on both food and fat intakes in ...

Adenosine-Metabolizing Enzymes, Adenosine Kinase and Adenosine Deaminase, in Cancer [PDF]
The immunosuppressive effect of adenosine in the microenvironment of a tumor is well established. Presently, researchers are developing approaches in immune therapy that target inhibition of adenosine or its signaling such as CD39 or CD73 inhibiting antibodies or adenosine A2A receptor antagonists.

Activity-dependent adenosine release may be linked to activation of Na+-K+ ATPase : an in vitro rat study [PDF]
In the brain, extracellular adenosine increases as a result of neuronal activity. The mechanisms by which this occurs are only incompletely understood. Here we investigate the hypothesis that the Na+ influxes associated with neuronal signalling activate ...

Antiallodynic and anti-inflammatory effects of intrathecal R-PIA in a rat model of vincristine-induced peripheral neuropathy [PDF]
Background Studies investigating the correlation between spinal adenosine A1 receptors and vincristine-induced peripheral neuropathy (VIPN) are limited.

Adenosine is an ancient extracellular signaling molecule that regulates various biological functions via activating four G-protein-coupled receptors, A1, A2A, A2B, and A3 adenosine receptors. As such, several studies have highlighted a role for adenosine signaling in affecting the T cell development in the thymus. Recent studies indicate that adenosine

CD73's Potential as an Immunotherapy Target in Gastrointestinal Cancers
CD73, a cell surface 5′nucleotidase that generates adenosine, has emerged as an attractive therapeutic target for reprogramming cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment to dampen antitumor immune cell evasion. Decades of studies have paved the way for

Squalene-Adenosine Nanoparticles: Ligands of Adenosine Receptors or Adenosine Prodrug? [PDF]
Adenosine receptors (ARs) represent key drug targets in many human pathologies, including cardiovascular, neurologic, and inflammatory diseases. To overcome the very rapid metabolization of adenosine, metabolically stable AR agonists and antagonists were developed.
