Extracellular ATP and adenosine as regulators of endothelial cell function Implications for health and disease / edited by Evgenia Gerasimovskaya, Elzbieta Kaczmarek.

Extracellular purines and pyrimidines (ATP, ADP, UTP and adenosine) are released into the extracellular milieu in response to a variety of stress conditions and act as important regulators of vascular homeostasis. This new book is uniquely focused on the signaling actions of extracellular purines in...
