متن کاملElectrocardiographic changes underlying central nervous system damage.
We present the case of a 58 year-old woman with dyslipidemia, ex-smoker, with no known history of heart problems, agnosed with oat-cell lung carcinoma two years earlier. She perienced extreme fatigue and inability to make fine moveents for 10 days and sought emergency care.

متن کاملADENOSINE IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Besides being a metabolite of nucleotides like ATP, adenosine is a mediator of neuronal function in the central nervous system. Its actions are mediated by at least three extracellular receptors. In this review different aspects of adenosine such as biosynthesis, release, inactivation and its receptors are discussed. It also covers pre- and postsynaptic effects as well as postreceptor mecha...
