Adenosine A2A-Receptor Stimulation Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Interleukin-18 Production in Monocytes
Adenosine inhibited interleukin (IL)-18 production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated monocytes. The action of adenosine was antagonized by an adenosine A2A-receptor (A2AR) antagonist and was mimicked by an A2AR agonist, suggesting that the stimulation of A2AR may be involved in the actions of a...
