title: Effects of hypoxanthine on adenosine transport in human lymphocytes. Implications in the pathogenesis of Lesch-Nyhan syndrome.
abstract: We have examined the effect of hypoxanthine on adenosine transport and [3H] NBTI binding in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) cultures. Pre-incubation with hypoxanthine originates a dose dependent decrease of adenosine transport and [3H] NBTI binding sites in PBL.
