Abstract excerpt
Pro-inflammatory and reparative macrophages are crucial in clearing necrotic myocardium and promoting cardiac repair after myocardial infarction (MI), respectively. Extracellular adenosine has been demonstrated to modulate macrophage polarization through adenosine receptors. However, the role of intracellular adenosine in macrophage polarization has not been explored and adenosine kinase (ADK) is a major enzyme...
