This book provides a broad view of the current research activities in adenosine and adenine nucleotide research, with contributions from many leading experts in the field. Like the three previous Symposia, the 4th International Symposium on "Adenosine" was designed to integrate the recent advances made in the rapidly expanding field of adenosine research by various biological and medical disciplines. Over 70 presentations were made, with over 60 posters displayed, and all the papers presented by the invited speakers and related discussions, as originally submitted by the authors are contained in this proceedings. This comprehensive text covers all important aspects of the subject and is a must for any scientist with an interest in "adenosine" research.
