1 Acadesine, an analog of AMP and an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator, has been shown to have cytoprotective effects in human clinical trials as well as having anti-inflammatory and anti-vascular exudative effects in animals. acadesine protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 Homo sapiens
2 Acadesine, an analog of AMP and an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator, has been shown to have cytoprotective effects in human clinical trials as well as having anti-inflammatory and anti-vascular exudative effects in animals. acadesine protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that acadesine suppresses TNF-alpha induced C3, likely through an AMPK-independent pathway, and could have potential use in complement over activation diseases. acadesine protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 Homo sapiens
