Inosine
A purine nucleoside that has hypoxanthine linked by the N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It is an intermediate in the degradation of purines and purine nucleosides to uric acid and in pathways of purine salvage. It also occurs in the anticodon of certain transfer RNA molecules. (In Vitro) :Inosine dose-dependently stimulates cAMP production mediated through the A2AR.Inosine dose-dependently induces hA2AR-mediated ERK1/2 phosphorylation.Inosine (100 μM; 24 hours) reduces oxidative stress in MES 23.5 cells cultured with astrocytes.
