Official title

A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Escalating Dose-Response Trial of Intravenous Adenosine for Perioperative Analgesia in Females Undergoing Abdominal Hysterectomy or Myomectomy

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Adenosine A1 and A2 receptors are widely distributed in the brain and spinal cord and represent a non-opiate target for pain management. Activated spinal A1 receptors inhibit sensory transmission by inhibiting the slow ventral root potential, which is the C-fiber-evoked excitatory response associated with nociception. Adenosine may inhibit intrinsic neurons through an increase in K+ conductance and presynaptic inhibition of sensory nerve terminals to inhibit the release of substance P and perhaps glutamate. Although adenosine A3 receptors are not found in the nervous system, adenosine is also known to have anti-inflammatory properties that may contribute to pain relief in the peripheral setting of inflammation.
