Chemical Information
NameAdenosine
DescriptionAdenosine, also known as adenocard or ade-rib, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as purine nucleosides. Purine nucleosides are compounds comprising a purine base attached to a ribosyl or deoxyribosyl moiety. A ribonucleoside composed of a molecule of adenine attached to a ribofuranose moiety via a beta-N(9)-glycosidic bond. Adenosine is a drug which is used as an initial treatment for the termination of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (pvst), including that associated with accessory bypass tracts, and is a drug of choice for terminating stable, narrow-complex supraventricular tachycardias (svt). also used as an adjunct to thallous chloride ti 201 myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (thallium stress test) in patients who are unable to exercise adequately, as well as an adjunct to vagal maneuvers and clinical assessment to establish a specific diagnosis of undefined, stable, narrow-complex svt. Adenosine is a strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Adenosine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, adenosine participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, adenosine can be converted into inosine; which is mediated by the enzyme adenosine deaminase. In addition, adenosine can be converted into adenine and ribose 1-phosphate; which is mediated by the enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase. In humans, adenosine is involved in thioguanine action pathway. Outside of the human body, Adenosine is found, on average, in the highest concentration within beers and milk (cow). Adenosine has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as capers, new zealand spinachs, welsh onions, hickory nuts, and pepper (spice). This could make adenosine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Adenosine is a potentially toxic compound.
