abstract：:Because A2 adenosine receptor activation stimulates adenylate cyclase and cyclic AMP induces 5'-nucleotidase expression in rat mesangial cells, we examined the effect of adenosine and its analogs on 5'-nucleotidase activity in these cells. A2 adenosine receptors were characterized using [3H]5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenos...
