The aim of this study is to characterize tumor cell specific expression of purinergic ecto-enzymes CD39 and CD73, and to associate prognostic significance of these expression patterns in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients.

Heightened NTPDase-1/CD39 expression and angiogenesis in radiation proctitis [PDF]
Radiation proctitis is an inflammatory process associated with persistent and refractory lower gastrointestinal bleeding. Purinergic signaling regulates hemostasis, inflammation, and angiogenesis.

Genetically driven CD39 expression shapes human tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T-cell functions
In our study, we investigated the role of CD39 on tumor-infiltrating CD8(+)T lymphocytes (CD8(+)TILs) in colorectal, head and neck and pancreatic cancers. Partially confirming recent observations correlating the CD39 expression with T-cell exhaustion, we

CD39 Is an Ecto-(Ca2+,Mg2+)-apyrase [PDF]
CD39, a 70- to 100-kDa molecule expressed primarily on activated lymphoid cells, was previously identified as a surface marker of Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B cells. In this report, we show that an ecto-(Ca2+,Mg2+)-apyrase activity is present on EBV-transformed B cells, but not on B or T lymphomas.

CD39 – A bright target for cancer immunotherapy
The ATP-adenosine pathway functions as a key modulator of innate and adaptive immunity within the tumor microenvironment, and cancer immune evasion largely involves the generation of high amounts of immunosuppressive extracellular adenosine (eADO). Consequently, inhibition of eADO-generating enzymes and/or eADO receptors can effectively restore the ...

Nucleotide Analog ARL67156 as a Lead Structure for the Development of CD39 and Dual CD39/CD73 Ectonucleotidase Inhibitors [PDF]
Nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase1 (NTPDase1, CD39) inhibitors have potential as novel drugs for the (immuno)therapy of cancer. They increase the extracellular concentration of immunostimulatory ATP and reduce the formation of AMP, which can be further hydrolyzed by ecto-5'-nucleotidase (CD73) to immunosuppressive, cancer-promoting adenosine ...

Asthma is a chronic respiratory inflammatory disease. Patients usually suffer long-term symptoms and high medical expenses. Extracellular ATP (eATP) has been identified as a danger signal in innate immunity and serves as a potent inflammatory mediator ...
