Vasodepressor Effects of Adenosine in the Cat are Independent of Cyclooxygenase, Potassium Channels, and Nitric Oxide Pathways

ConclusionsVasodepressor effects of adenosine are species specific, and this species specificity will impact the development of future testing and treatments for pulmonary arterial hypertension. Clinical studies are warranted to see if adenosine moieties could play a therapeutic role in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and/or other pulmonary pathogeneses.
