Regulation of adenosine kinase by adenosine analogs.

Molecular Pharmacology, 1988
The regulation of adenosine phosphorylation by adenosine analogs was studied using highly purified human placental adenosine kinase [ATP: adenosine 5'-phosphotransferase (EC 2.7.1.20)]. Our observations lead us to classify the analogs into three groups as follows: type I, 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine and 5'-methylthioadenosine; type II, N6 ...

Adenosine Diphosphate, Adenosine Triphosphate

1955
The increasing importance for animals and bacteria of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in energy-transfer mechanisms involving such widely diverse processes as muscular contraction, nerve conduction, fire fly luminescence, coenzyme syntheses, tumor growth, polysaccharide synthesis and many other key reactions (McElroy and ...

Adenosine, adenosine receptors and glaucoma: An updated overview

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2013
Glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness worldwide, is an optic neuropathy commonly associated with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). The major goals of glaucoma treatments are to lower IOP and protect retinal ganglion cells. It has been revealed recently that adenosine and adenosine receptors (ARs) have important roles in IOP modulation and ...

Immunohistochemistry of Adenosine Deaminase: Implications for Adenosine Neurotransmission

Science, 1984
Immunohistochemical analysis of adenosine deaminase in rat brain revealed an extensive plexus of adenosine deaminase-containing neurons in the basal hypothalamus. These neurons converged on and were most numerous in three major centers, namely, the tuberal, caudal, and postmammillary caudal magnocellular nuclei.

Effect of adenosine deaminase on cardiac interstitial adenosine

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1992
Adenosine deaminase was infused into isolated perfused guinea pig hearts to determine its effect on myocardial adenosine levels. The enzyme was administered during constant coronary flow perfusion at 6.11 +/- 0.36 ml.min-1.g-1. Venous adenosine was measured in samples of pulmonary artery effluent; epicardial and endocardial adenosine were measured ...

Graphene/Cu nanoparticle hybrids fabricated by chemical vapor deposition as surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate for label-free detection of adenosine.

ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 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 by a monolayer graphene shell were directly synthesized on flat quartz by ...

Adenosine Metabolism, Adenosine Kinase, and Evolution

2012
The enzyme adenosine kinase (AdK, ADK, or AK) plays an important role in regulating the intracellular as well as extracellular concentrations of adenosine and hence its diverse physiological actions. In view of the enormous pharmacological potential of adenosine, there has been much interest in studying adenosine kinase over the past few decades.
