Adenosine receptor distribution in Rhesus monkey ocular tissue.

In conclusion, immunohistochemistry and RT-qPCR indicated differential patterns of expression of the four adenosine receptors in the ocular tissues of the normal non-human primate. The presence of ADORs in scleral fibroblasts and the choroid may support mechanisms by which ADOR antagonists may prevent myopia. The potential effects of ADOR inhibition on both anterior and posterior ocular structures warrant investigation. PMID: 29792846 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
