		Adenosine also stimulates the A1 purine receptors in the SA and AV node leading to slowing of HR and AV conduction delay.
		When the flow in the latter increases during Adenosine infusion and the pressure decrease, flow in the collateral'smay reverse, blood is being "sucked" over fro the stenotic vessel leading to real hypoperfusion and ischemia in the stenotic artery.
		Adenosine is the protocol of choice in patient with significant arrhythmia and in patient with psychiatric history.

	Adenosine triphosphate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is the nucleotide known in biochemistry as the "molecular currency" of intracellular energy transfer; that is, ATP is able to store and transport chemical energy within cells.
		In signal transduction pathways, ATP is used to provide the phosphate for the protein-kinase reactions.
		ATP consists of adenosine and three phosphate groups(triphosphate).

	Adenosine and BDNF
		Adenosine is not a typical hormone or neurotransmitter, but is an important neuromodulator in the central and peripheral nervous systems.1 Adenosine is released from inflamed (infected) tissues or ischemic tissues where there is a decreased blood supply to a particular body organ or part.
		Adenosine inhibits the firing of neurons throughout the brain by activating potassium channels, and by inhibiting the release of a number of neurotransmitters (Acetylcholine, NorAdrenalin, Dopamine, Serotonin, GABA and Glutamate).
		Since adenosine exerts a depressant effect on neocortical neurons in slices obtained from epileptic patients, this upregulation of A1 receptor binding may constitute a protective mechanism against subsequent seizures, which is exerted by elevating the depressant response of the brain to endogenous adenosine.

	Adenosine triphosphate Summary
		Adenosine triphosphate is an organic compound that serves as a source of energy for living organisms, and assists them in carrying out a wide variety of important functions.
		Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is one of the most important nucleotides present in living organisms because it stores and delivers energy from the metabolizing of food.
		Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is a multifunctional nucleotide primarily known in biochemistry as the "molecular currency" of intracellular energy transfer.

	Adenosine - Purine Nucleoside
		Although adenosine is constitutively present at low levels in the extracellular space, metabolically stressful conditions, such as those that occur during injury, ischemia, and inflammation dramatically increase its extracellular concentration.
		Extracellular adenosine and adenosine A2a and A3 receptors serve as anti-inflammatory signals and sensors of excessive inflammatory tissue damage.
		Adenosine receptors are members of the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily, and are typically thought to mediate stimulation or inhibition of adenylyl cyclase activity, and hence cyclic AMP levels.

		27 Because unbound extracellular adenosine is normally dismantled within seconds, the congregation of infused adenosine in the sensory apparatus of the head suggests that infused adenosine becomes bound to the numerous adenosine receptors located on the dense concentrations of sensory neurons in the sensory apparatus.

		Intravenously administered adenosine is rapidly cleared from the circulation via cellular uptake, primarily by erythrocytes and vascular endothelial cells.
		Intracellular adenosine is rapidly metabolized either via phosphorylation to adenosine monophosphate by adenosine kinase, or via deamination to inosine by adenosine deaminase in the cytosol.
		While extracellular adenosine is primarily cleared by cellular uptake with a half-life of less than 10 seconds in whole blood, excessive amounts may be deaminated by an ecto-form of adenosine deaminase.

		Caffeine potentially has pharmacological actions other than blockage of adenosine receptors, but it requires 20times as much caffeine to inhibit phosphodiesterase, 40times as much caffeine to block GABAA receptors and 100times as much caffeine to mobilize intracellular calcium as is required to block adenosine receptors.
		Caffeine acts primarily by the direct action of blocking adenosine receptors and by the indirect action upon the receptors for neurotransmitters.
		Caffeine is similar in structure to adenosine, a chemical found in the brain that slows down its activity.
