Adenosine Receptors and Wound Healing

Recent studies have demonstrated that application of topical adenosine A(2A) receptor agonists promotes more rapid wound closure and clinical studies are currently underway to determine the utility of topical A(2A) adenosine receptor agonists in the therapy of diabetic foot ulcers. The effects of ad...

description Recent studies have demonstrated that application of topical adenosine A(2A) receptor agonists promotes more rapid wound closure and clinical studies are currently underway to determine the utility of topical A(2A) adenosine receptor agonists in the therapy of diabetic foot ulcers. The effects of adenosine A(2A) receptors on the cells and tissues of healing wounds have only recently been explored. We review here the known effects of adenosine A(2A) receptor occupancy on the cells involved in wound healing.
