Abstract excerpt
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of catecholamines released by oxygen-sensitive cells in response to hypoxic conditions. Adenosine is released in response to hypoxia in the central nervous system and CGS21680, an adenosine A(2)A receptor agonist, induces T...
