Adenosine enhances nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. We found that adenosine increases NGF-induced phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), but decreases the duration of phosphorylation of p38 ...

Biosensor measurement of purine release from cerebellar cultures and slices [PDF]
We have previously described an action-potential and Ca2+-dependent form of adenosine release in the molecular layer of cerebellar slices. The most likely source of the adenosine is the parallel fibres, the axons of granule cells. Using microelectrode

Presynaptic Purinergic Modulation of the Rat Neuro-Muscular Transmission
ATP, being a well-known universal high-energy compound, plays an important role as a signaling molecule and together with its metabolite adenosine they both attenuate the release of acetylcholine in the neuro-muscular synapse acting through membrane P2 ...

A complex containing SNF1-related kinase (SnRK1) and adenosine kinase in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
SNF1-related kinase (SnRK1) in plants belongs to a conserved family that includes sucrose non-fermenting 1 kinase (SNF1) in yeast and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in animals.

Trypanosoma brucei methylthioadenosine phosphorylase protects the parasite from the antitrypanosomal effect of deoxyadenosine [PDF]
Trypanosoma brucei causes African sleeping sickness for which no vaccine exists and available treatments are of limited use due to their high toxicity or lack of efficacy. T.

Adenosine Dysfunction and Adenosine Kinase in Epileptogenesis [PDF]
Traditionally, epilepsy has been considered to be a disorder of neuronal dysfunction. Based on this dogma, drug development efforts have largely focused on neurocentric model systems to screen for compounds that affect the function of neurons. Unfortunately, about 30% of all patients with epilepsy - or more than 20 million worldwide - are refractory to

CBS domains form energy-sensing modules whose binding of adenosine ligands is disrupted by disease mutations [PDF]
CBS domains are defined as sequence motifs that occur in several different proteins in all kingdoms of life. Although thought to be regulatory, their exact functions have been unknown.

Mechanisms of sensorineural cell damage, death and survival in the cochlea. [PDF]
The majority of acquired hearing loss, including presbycusis, is caused by irreversible damage to the sensorineural tissues of the cochlea. This article reviews the intracellular mechanisms that contribute to sensorineural damage in the cochlea, as well ...
