Abstract excerpt
Adenosine receptors ADORA2A and ADORA3 are part of the adenosine-mediated antiinflammatory pathway and are overexpressed in patients with Rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methotrexate (MTX) antiinflammatory effects are partially mediated via increased release of adenosine into extracellular space. Polymorphisms in ADORA2A and ADORA3 genes may have an impact on the efficacy and toxicity of MTX in RA patients. The study...
