Adenosine is a nucleoside that occurs naturally in all cells of the body. Chemically it is 6-amino-9-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-9-H-purine. Adenosine is made up of adenine attached to a ribose sugar ...

Adenosine is a neuromodulator with receptor-mediated effects. De novo synthesis of adenosine in brain is low 1; thus, adenosine is primarily derived from dephosphorylation of ATP. In physiological ...

In the ED, adenosine is used to terminate supraventricular tachycardias (SVTs). It is also used by cardiologists for pharmacologic stress testing. Paroxysmal SVT has a prevalence of around 2.25 per ...

Naturally rewarding stimuli (i.e. food, sex, etc) increase the activity of dopamine cells in the mesocorticolimbic dopamine system causing increased dopamine release in brain areas such as the nucleus ...

Adenosine formation intracellularly increases with increasing cellular workload and the increase is related to indices such as oxygen consumption 9 and excitatory transmitter release. 10 Adenosine ...

Adenosine kinase is an important enzyme that regulates both the intracellular and extracellular concentrations of adenosine. The inhibition of this enzyme has numerous clinical applications ranging ...

The coffee paradox in adenosine-mediated antidepressant action. Depression (left) and coffee consumption (right) are both linked through adenosine signaling (center), creating a pharmacological ...
