Comparative study of adenosine 3′‐pyrophosphokinase domains of MuF polymorphic toxins
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.With the ultimate goal of understanding the association of toxin‐immunity modules to temperate phages, we characterized toxins from three prophages and examined cross‐protection from immunity proteins. The toxins exhibit adenosine 3′‐pyrophosphokinase activity and are toxic in Escherichia coli.

ATP Hysteresis in Tripartite Synapses [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Recent experimental studies strongly suggest the influence of glial purinergic transmission in the modulation of synaptic dynamics. By releasing adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which accumulates as adenosine, astrocytes tonically suppressed synaptic transmission. The delayed multi-step feedback of the glial adenosine with the neuron suggest the existence

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.20 Hz mechanical vibration induced A431 cancer cells' apoptosis without such effect on other healthy cell lines of L929 and C2C12. Lowered glucose consumption is observed specifically in A431. The expressions of ROS, HMGB1, and HSP1 levels initially increase and subsequently decrease in the cancer cell line, as opposed to L929 and C2C12, which ...

Temperoammonic stimulation depotentiates Schaffer collateral LTP via p38 MAPK downstream of adenosine A1 receptors [PDF]
, 2019 We previously found that low-frequency stimulation of direct temperoammonic (TA) inputs to hippocampal area CA1 depotentiates previously established long-term potentiation in the Schaffer collateral (SC) pathway through complex signaling involving ...

Direct Growth Graphene on Cu Nanoparticles by Chemical Vapor Deposition as Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Substrate for Label-Free Detection of Adenosine [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We present a graphene/Cu nanoparticle hybrids (G/CuNPs) system as a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate for adenosine detection. The Cu nanoparticles wrapped around a monolayer graphene shell were directly synthesized on flat quartz by chemical vapor deposition in a mixture of methane and hydrogen.

IL-21 promotes the development of a CD73-positive Vγ9Vδ2 T cell regulatory population
OncoImmunology, 2018 Vγ9Vδ2 T cells contribute to the immune response against many tumor types through their direct cytotoxic activity and capacity to regulate the biological functions of other immune cells, such as dendritic cells and IFN-γ-producing CD8+ T cells.

Effect of adenosine or adenosine triphosphate on antidromic tachycardia
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1994 This study was designed to determine the effect of adenosine or adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on antidromic tachycardia.Adenosine and adenosine triphosphate are useful for differential diagnosis of wide QRS tachycardia. It has been believed that tachycardia termination caused by these agents is due to the preferential depressive effect on the ...
