Adenosine: old passion, new perspectives.
In this review is summarized my research in the adenosine field from the beginning of my carrier to day. My research began preparing the degree thesis with Prof. Carlo Alfonso Rossi, about the purification and characterization of adenosine deaminase. My scientific interest for adenosine has spread during the years and I have been interested in the study of ARs and their related transduction and in the study of molecular mechanisms involved in homologous and heterologous AR receptor regulation.
