Adenosine is a kind of endogenous nucleoside throughout human cells, which can directly enter the myocardium to generate adenosine through phosphorylation, participate in the energy metabolism of myocardium, and also participate in the expansion of coronary blood vessels, increase blood flow.

Adenosine has physiological effects on the cardiovascular system and many other systems and tissues of the body.

Adenosine is an important intermediate for the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenine, adenosine and adenosine arabine.

1.Adenosine plays a physiological role on the cardiovascular system and the body's many systems and organizations. Adenosine is used in the synthesis adenosine triphosphate, adenosine (ATP), adenine, adenosine, the vidarabine important intermediates.

2.Adenosine plays an important role in biochemistry, including adenosine triphosphate (ATP) or adeno-bisphosphate (ADP) form of transfer of energy, or to cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) for signal transmission and so on. In addition, adenosine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter (inhibitory neurotransmitter), may promote sleep.

3.In the December 23 "natural - Medicine" (Nature Medicine) magazine, a new study shows that a compound will help us to alleviate the brain of sleep and other brain disease Parkinson's disease Deep brain stimulation of the success are crucial.
