Regulation of Adenosine Metabolism by 5’-Nucleotidases

  • Chapter
Regulatory Function of Adenosine

Part of the book series: Developments in Pharmacology ((DIPH,volume 2))

Abstract

When an organ is subjected to anoxia or an increased work load, its rates of A TP utilization and synthesis change. Such changes are accompanied by adjustments in the concentrations of many intermediates of energy metabolism, including ATP, ADP, AMP, creatine phosphate, and creatine. However, changes in the concentration of free A TP are relatively small.
