Abstract The role of the adenosine A3 receptor (A3AR) in experimental colitis is controversial. A3AR agonist N 6 -(3-iodobenzyl)adenosine-5'-N-methyluronamide (IB-MECA) has been shown to have a clinical benefit, although studies A3AR-deficient mice suggest pro-inflammatory role. However, there are no on effect 2-Cl-IB-MECA and molecular mechanism action murine models vivo. Is it same as that observed vitro? interaction between 2-CL-IB-MECA model signaling pathways associated with this remain...
