| Abstract | Adenosine is a purine nucleoside that, via activation of distinct G protein-coupled receptors, modulates inflammation and immune responses. Under pathological conditions and in response to inflammatory stimuli, extracellular ATP is released from damaged cells and is metabolized to extracellular adenosine. However, studies over the past 30 years provide strong evidence for another source of extracellular adenosine, namely the “cAMP-adenosine pathway.” The cAMP-adenosine pathway is a biochemical mechanism mediated by ATP-binding cassette transporters that facilitate cAMP efflux and by specific ectoenzymes that convert cAMP to AMP (ecto-PDEs) and AMP to adenosine (ecto-nucleotidases such as CD73). Importantly, the cAMP-adenosine pathway is operative in many cell types, including those of the airways. In airways, β2-adrenoceptor agonists, which are used as bronchodilators for treatment of asthma and chronic respiratory diseases, stimulate cAMP efflux and thus trigger the extracellular cAMP-adenosine pathway leading to increased concentrations of extracellular adenosine in airways. In the airways, extracellular adenosine exerts pro-inflammatory effects and induces bronchoconstriction in patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases. These considerations lead to the hypothesis that the cAMP-adenosine pathway attenuates the efficacy of β2-adrenoceptor agonists. Indeed, our recent findings support this view. In this mini-review, we will highlight the potential role of the extracellular cAMP-adenosine pathway in chronic respiratory inflammatory disorders, and we will explore how extracellular cAMP could interfere with the regulatory effects of intracellular cAMP on airway smooth muscle and innate immune cell function. Finally, we will discuss therapeutic possibilities targeting the extracellular cAMP-adenosine pathway for treatment of these respiratory diseases. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
