  • Title: Pharmacologic modulation of acute ocular inflammation. I. Adenosine.
    Author: Marak GE, de Kozak Y, Faure JP, Rao NA, Romero JL, Ward PA, Till GO.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Res; 1988; 20(4):220-6. PubMed ID: 3263602.
    Abstract:
    Modulation of signal transduction at the surface of inflammatory cells appears to influence acute inflammation. Adenosine, a well-known chemical messenger, inhibits the production of superoxide by stimulated neutrophils. In experimental allergic uveitis induced by sensitization with retinal 's' antigen, treatment with adenosine produced a marked reduction in the expected inflammation.
