BACKGROUND: Application of high power radiofrequency (RF) energy for a short duration (HPSD) to isolate pulmonary vein (PV) is an emerging technique. But power and duration settings are very different across different centers.

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.

Hidden Pool of Cardiac Adenine Nucleotides That Controls Adenosine Production
Myocardial ischemic adenosine production decreases in subsequent events that may blunt its protective functions. To test the relation between total or mitochondrial cardiac adenine nucleotide pool (TAN) on the energy status with adenosine production ...

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 triarsenate is a realistic candidate for replacement of adenosine triphosphate in biochemical ...

Extracellular adenosine triphosphate and adenosine in cancer [PDF]
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is actively released in the extracellular environment in response to tissue damage and cellular stress. Through the activation of P2X and P2Y receptors, extracellular ATP enhances tissue repair, promotes the recruitment of immune phagocytes and dendritic cells, and acts as a co-activator of NLR family, pyrin domain ...

Activity-dependent release of Adenosine: a critical re-evaluation of mechanism [PDF]
Adenosine is perhaps the most important and universal modulator in the brain. The current consensus is that it is primarily produced in the extracellular space from the breakdown of previously released ATP.

Adenosine-mediated modulation of ventral horn interneurons and spinal motoneurons in neonatal mice [PDF]
The authors are grateful for support from the Wellcome Trust.Neuromodulation allows neural networks to adapt to varying environmental and biomechanical demands. Purinergic signalling is known to be an important modulatory system in many parts of the CNS,

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 ...

Role of cGMP as second messenger of adenosine in the inhibition of renin release [PDF]
Adenosine is known to be a potent inhibitor of renin release from the kidneys. The aim of this study was to investigate the transmembrane signalling avenue that the second messenger of adenosine causes inhibition of renal renin release.
