Review of the published literature on adenosine and cardioprotection could lead one to paraphrase the famous words of Sir Winston Churchill (Radio broadcast, 1 October 1939 (in reference to Russia)) and conclude: 'I cannot forecast to you the action of adenosine. It is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma'. That is, although it is well-established that adenosine can render cardiomyocytes resistant to lethal ischemia/reperfusion-induced injury, new and intriguing insights continue to emerge as to the mechanisms by which adenosine might limit myocardial infarct size.
回顾已发表的关于腺苷与心脏保护作用的文献,可能会让人套用温斯顿·丘吉尔爵士(1939年10月1日广播讲话(关于俄罗斯))的名言并得出结论:“我无法向你们预测腺苷的作用。它是一个包裹在谜团中的谜,谜中还有谜”。也就是说,尽管腺苷能够使心肌细胞对致死性缺血/再灌注诱导的损伤产生抗性这一点已得到充分证实,但关于腺苷限制心肌梗死面积的机制,仍不断有新的、引人入胜的见解出现。
