Abstract excerpt
Extracellular adenosine accumulates in tumors and causes suppression of immune cells. Suppressive adenosine signaling is achieved through adenosine A2A and A2B receptors, which are Gs coupled, and their activation elevates cAMP levels. Gs-coupled GPCR signaling causes cAMP accumulation, which plays an anti-inflammatory role in immune cells. Protein kinase A (PKA) and exchange protein directly activated by cAMP...
