Vasodepressor Effects of Adenosine in the Cat are Independent of Cyclooxygenase, Potassium Channels, and Nitric Oxide Pathways

Drugs in R&D, 2019
Background Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a hemodynamic disorder. Signs and symptoms are generally difficult to recognize because they are non-specific. The current treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension offers no cure or prevention; therefore,

Adenosine-Sensitive Focal Reentrant Atrial Tachycardia Originating From the Mitral Annulus-Aorta Junction

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2008
Adenosine-sensitive reentrant atrial tachycardia (AT) has been recognized to originate from the confined area of either the right or left atiroventricular nodal regions.

Role of P2X7 on steroid synthesis in murine luteal cells

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2016
The extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) regulates different cellular functions through activating purinergic receptors as a signalling molecule or neurotransmitter. P2X7 is highly expressed in murine small luteal cells.

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells ameliorate sodium nitrite-induced hypoxic brain injury in a rat model

Neural Regeneration Research, 2017
Sodium nitrite (NaNO2) is an inorganic salt used broadly in chemical industry. NaNO2 is highly reactive with hemoglobin causing hypoxia. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are capable of differentiating into a variety of tissue specific cells and MSC therapy ...

<em>Bacillus anthracis</em> Edema Factor Substrate Specificity: Evidence for New Modes of Action

Toxins, 2012
Since the isolation of <em>Bacillus anthracis</em> exotoxins in the 1960s, the detrimental activity of edema factor (EF) was considered as adenylyl cyclase activity only.

Biosensing strategies for determination of adenosine-5′-triphosphate

Biosensors and Bioelectronics: X
Adenosine-5′-triphosphate (ATP) is a fundamental biomolecule that supplies the energy required for virtually all biochemical reactions in living organisms and thus underpins the continuity of life.

Mitochondrial transplantation strategies as potential therapeutics for central nervous system trauma

Neural Regeneration Research, 2018
Mitochondria are essential cellular organelles critical for generating adenosine triphosphate for cellular homeostasis, as well as various mechanisms that can lead to both necrosis and apoptosis. The field of “mitochondrial medicine” is emerging in which

Effect of adenosine or adenosine triphosphate on antidromic tachycardia

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1994
This study was designed to determine the effect of adenosine or adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on antidromic tachycardia.Adenosine and adenosine triphosphate are useful for differential diagnosis of wide QRS tachycardia. It has been believed that tachycardia termination caused by these agents is due to the preferential depressive effect on the ...
