title: [Mechanism of action of adenosine on intracellular calcium and platelet aggregation].
abstract: Adenosine inhibits platelet aggregation and elevates the levels of cytoplasmic Ca2+ induced by thrombin, 0.3 U/ml). When given at the maximal (100 microM) concentration, adenosine completely inhibits the aggregation, but only partially (by 55%) suppresses the growth of Ca2+, blocking both its entry and intracellular depot mobilization. Adenosine is likely to affect intracellular Ca2+, by activating adenylate cyclase, since 2',5'-didesoxyadenosine (1 mM) prevents the effect of adenosine, by inhibiting the enzyme, whereas the phosphodiesterase inhibitor papaverine (1 microM) potentiates its effect. When stimulated with adrenaline, 1 microM, adenosine and dibutyryl-cAMP are also able to inhibit platelet aggregation in the absence of cytoplasmic Ca2+ growth.
