Adenosine
Identification
- Summary
Adenosine is a medication used in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy and to treat supraventricular tachycardia.
- Brand Names
- Adenocard, Viva-drops Lubricating Eye Drops
- Generic Name
- Adenosine
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB00640
- Background
The structure of adenosine was first described in 1931,7 though the vasodilating effects were not described in literature until the 1940s.8 Adenosine is indicated as an adjunct to thallium-201 in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy,12 though it is rarely used in this indication, having largely been replaced by dipyridamole and [regadenson].9,10 Adenosine is also indicated in the treatment of supraventricular tachycardia.13
Adenosine was granted FDA approval on 30 October 1989.11

Pharmacology
- Indication
Adenosine is indicated as an adjunct to thallium-201 in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy in patients unable to adequately exercise.12 It is also indicated to convert sinus rhythm of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.13

Adenosine is indicated as an adjunct to thallium-201 in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy and also indicated for conversion of sinus rhythm of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.12,13 Adenosine has a short duration of action as the half life is <10 seconds, and a wide therapeutic window.12,13 Patients should be counselled regarding the risk of cardiovascular side effects, bronchoconstriction, seizures, and hypersensitivity.12,13
- Mechanism of action
Agonism of adenosine receptors A1 and A2 reduces conduction time in the atrioventricular node of the heart.4,6,12 Conduction time is decreased by inducing potassium efflux and inhibiting calcium influx through channels in nerve cells, leading to hyperpolarization and and increased threshold for calcium dependent action potentials.4 Decreased conduction time leads to an antiarrhythmic effect.4 Inhibition of calcium influx, reduces the activity of adenylate cyclase, relaxing vascular smooth muscle.6 Relaxed vascular smooth muscle leads to increased blood flow through normal coronary arteries but not stenotic arteries, allowing thallium-201 to be more readily uptaken in normal coronary arteries.12

Data regarding the absorption of adenosine are not readily available.5
- Volume of distribution
Data regarding the volume of distribution of adenosine are not readily available.5
- Protein binding
Adenosine is bound to albumin in plasma, however data regarding the extent of binding are not readily available.3
- Metabolism
Adenosine can be phosphorylated by adenosine kinase to form adenosine monophosphate.1,12 From there, it is phosphorylated again by adenylate kinase 1 to form adenosine diphosphate, and again by nucleoside diphosphate kinase A or B to form adenosine triphosphate.1,12
Alternatively, adenosine can be deaminated by adenosine deaminase to form inosine.1,12 Iosine is phosphorylated by purine nucleoside phosphorylase to form hypoxanthine.1,12 Hypoxanthine undergoes oxidation by xanthine dehydrogenase twice to form the metabolites xanthine, followed by uric acid.2,12

- Route of elimination
Adenosine is predominantly eliminated in the urine as uric acid.2,12
- Half-life
The half life of adenosine in blood is less than 10 seconds.12
- Clearance
Data regarding the clearance of adenosine are not readily available.5

Patients experiencing an overdose of adenosine may present with asystole, heart block, or cardiac ischemia; though the effects are generally short lived.4 Patients experiencing an overdose should be treated with symptomatic and supportive care, which may include a slow intravenous injection of theophylline.12
The LD50 in mice is >20 g/kg subcutaneously, 500mg/kg intraperitoneally, and 39.6 µg/kg subcutaneously.[L32048]

- General Function
- Mediates both influx and efflux of nucleosides across the membrane (equilibrative transporter). Mediates transport of adenine, adenosine and uridine, as well as several nucleoside analog drugs, such as anticancer and antiviral agents, including cladribine, cordycepin, tubercidin and AZT. Does not transport hypoxanthine.
