Adenozin

Adenozin is a naturally occurring nucleoside composed of adenine and ribose. It plays a crucial role in various biological processes within the body. Adenozin is a fundamental component of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary energy currency of cells. It is also a building block for ribonucleic acid (RNA). Beyond its role in energy and genetic material, Adenozin acts as a neuromodulator in the brain, influencing sleep-wake cycles and regulating neuronal activity. Its presence in the bloodstream can also affect blood flow by causing vasodilation. Medical applications utilize Adenozin for its ability to slow electrical conduction in the heart, making it effective in treating certain types of supraventricular tachycardia. Administered intravenously, it can be used diagnostically to induce physiological stress during cardiac imaging. The body metabolizes Adenozin rapidly, with a very short half-life, which contributes to its targeted and transient effects in both physiological and therapeutic contexts.
