Q

mechanism of MTX and adenosine immunosupression

A

inhibits AICAR–>FAICAR…AICAR accumulates and inhibits AMP deaminase and Adenosine deaminase–> icnreases adenosine 5’-P and adenosine–> this results in an increase in these products in the extracellular millieu, extracellular adenosine acting via the A2 pathway activated Adnylate cylase, resulting in increased cAMP production in the cell and thus IMMUNOSUPRESSION
