Abstract
The central paradigm of adenosine research is the idea that adenosine controls energy supply/demand balance. According to this theory, AMP is hydrolyzed to adenosine during conditions of hypoxia, ischemia, or exercise. Adenosine then redresses local energy deficits by reducing energy demand and increasing energy supply.Keywords
