The E-NTPDase Family of Ectonucleotidases: Structure Function Relationships and Pathophysiological Significance [PDF]
Ectonucleotidases are ectoenzymes that hydrolyze extracellular nucleotides to the respective nucleosides. Within the past decade, ectonucleotidases belonging to several enzyme families have been discovered, cloned and characterized.

What Else Can CD39 Tell Us? [PDF]
As the rate-limiting enzyme in ATP/ADP-AMP-adenosine pathway, CD39 would be a novel checkpoint inhibitor target in preventing adenosine-triggered immune-suppressive effect. In addition, CD39hi Tregs, but not CD25hi Tregs, exhibit sustained Foxp3 levels and functional abilities, indicating it could represent a new specific marker of Tregs.

AbstractThe role of CD39 pathway in Th1 cell function in tuberculosis (TB) is rarely elucidated. The present study aims to investigate the modulating mechanism of CD39 pathway during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection. CD39 expression was examined on host immune cells among patients with TB. The relationship between CD39 expression and Th1 cell

Metabolic, mental and immunological effects of normoxic and hypoxic training in multiple sclerosis patients: a pilot study [PDF]
Background: Physical activity might attenuate inflammation and neurodegeneration in multiple sclerosis (MS). Erythropoietin, which is produced upon exposure to hypoxia, is thought to act as a neuroprotective agent in MS. Therefore, we studied the effects

Backgroundγδ T cells are unconventional T cells that have been demonstrated to be crucial for the pathogenesis and potentially for the cure of HIV-1 infection. The ectonucleotidase CD39 is part of the purinergic pathway that regulates immune responses by

Genetic determinants of co-accessible chromatin regions in activated T cells across humans. [PDF]
Over 90% of genetic variants associated with complex human traits map to non-coding regions, but little is understood about how they modulate gene regulation in health and disease.

CD39-adenosinergic axis in renal pathophysiology and therapeutics [PDF]
Extracellular ATP interacts with purinergic type 2 (P2) receptors and elicits many crucial biological functions. Extracellular ATP is sequentially hydrolyzed to ADP and AMP by the actions of defined nucleotidases, such as CD39, and AMP is converted to adenosine, largely by CD73, an ecto-5'-nucleotidase.

In vitro Study of a Novel Stent Coating Using Modified CD39 Messenger RNA to Potentially Reduce Stent Angioplasty-Associated Complications. [PDF]
Stent angioplasty provides a minimally invasive treatment for atherosclerotic vessels. However, no treatment option for atherosclerosis-associated endothelial dysfunction, which is accompanied by a loss of CD39, is available, and hence, adverse effects ...
