RNA editing is a cellular process that precisely alters nucleotide sequences, thus regulating gene expression and generating protein diversity. Over 60% of human transcripts undergo adenosine to inosine RNA editing, and editing is required for normal ...

Adenosine deaminase activity in leukaemia [PDF]
Adenosine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.4., ADA) has been measured in the blast cells of 36 patients with acute lymphoblastic, acute myeloid, chronic myeloid and chronic myeloid blast crisis leukaemia. Particularly high levels were found in acute lymphoblastic and chronic myeloid blast crisis patients.

Genetic Engineering Methods in Primary T Cells
Primary T cells can be engineered to confer them with novel therapeutic functions, allowing them to treat a variety of conditions. Genetic engineering can be either stable or transient, aiming to either express or inhibit a target gene. This review discusses the various genetic engineering tools available as well as their characteristics and ...

Adenosine Depletion as A New Strategy to Decrease Glioblastoma Stem-Like Cells Aggressiveness
Glioblastoma is the brain tumor with the worst prognosis. This is mainly due to a cell subpopulation with an extremely aggressive potential, called glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs). These cells produce high levels of extracellular adenosine, which are

The activity of a cell‐surface ecto‐adenosine deaminase (eADA) is markedly increased in the endothelial activation and vascular inflammation leading to decreased adenosine concentration and alterations in adenosine signalling.

Urogenital Abnormalities in Adenosine Deaminase Deficiency [PDF]
Abstract Background Improved survival in ADA-SCID patients is revealing new aspects of the systemic disorder. Although increasing numbers of reports describe the systemic manifestations of adenosine deaminase deficiency, currently there are no studies in the literature evaluating genital development and pubertal progress

Intestinal Clock Promotes Cognitive Memory Through Adenosine Signaling
The intestinal clock controls the expression of an adenosine enzyme that modulates systemic adenosine level and A1R signaling in the hippocampus, and in turn, cognitive function involving long‐term potentiation and BDNF‐dependent synaptic changes.

The Growing Spectrum of DADA2 Manifestations—Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenges Revisited
Deficiency of Adenosine Deaminase Type 2 (DADA2) is a rare autosomal recessive inherited disorder with a variable phenotype including generalized or cerebral vasculitis and bone marrow failure. It is caused by variations in the adenosine deaminase 2 gene

This study reveals that ADAR1, an RNA‐editing enzyme, fine‐tunes immune responses in the placenta by preventing the accumulation of immunogenic double‐stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) from interferon‐stimulated genes. The loss of ADAR1 in the placenta leads to excessive interferon signaling restricted to the junctional zone, disrupting placental development and ...
