Clinical benefit of adenosine as an adjunct to reperfusion in ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients: An updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials [PDF]
Background: Adenosine administered as an adjunct to reperfusion can reduce coronary no-reflow and limit myocardial infarct (MI) size in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. Whether adjunctive adenosine therapy can improve clinical

ABSTRACT:Background:Adenosine is a powerful natural vasodilator that participates in the control of cerebral and meningeal blood flow. In this context, it could be involved in the pathophysiology of migraine, since it was previously reported that intravenous adenosine can precipitate crises in migraine patients.Methods:We have investigated circulating ...

Metabolic and functional consequences of cytosolic 5′-nucleotidase-IA overexpression in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Adenosine exerts a spectrum of energy-preserving actions on the heart negative chronotropic effects. The pathways leading to adenosine formation have remained controversial.

Ultraslow water-mediated transmembrane interactions regulate the activation of A$_{\text{2A}}$ adenosine receptor [PDF]
Water molecules inside G-protein coupled receptor have recently been spotlighted in a series of crystal structures. To decipher the dynamics and functional roles of internal waters in GPCR activity, we studied A$_{\text{2A}}$ adenosine receptor using $\mu$sec-molecular dynamics simulations.

Adenosine, ‘pertussis-sensitive’ G-proteins, and K+ conductance in central mammalian neurones under energy deprivation [PDF]
There is a striking similarity between the effects of adenosine and of hypoxia or glucose depletion on membrane potential and conductance of hippocampal neurones in tissue slices of rat brain.

A protein binding assay for adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate.
A simple and sensitive assay for adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) has been developed that is based on competition for protein binding of the nucleotide, presumably to a cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

Basal adenosine modulates the functional properties of AMPA receptors in mouse hippocampal neurons through the activation of A1R A2AR and A3R [PDF]
Adenosine is a widespread neuromodulator within the CNS and its extracellular level is increased during hypoxia or intense synaptic activity, modulating pre- and postsynaptic sites.

Adenosine receptor agonism protects against NETosis and thrombosis in antiphospholipid syndrome
Potentiation of neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) release is one mechanism by which antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL Abs) effect thrombotic events in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).

Role of Adenosine in Epilepsy and Seizures.
Adenosine is an endogenous anticonvulsant and neuroprotectant of the brain. Seizure activity produces large quantities of adenosine, and it is this seizure-induced adenosine surge that normally stops a seizure.
