“Second is discussed how adenosine is able to prevent or delay apoptosis in more mature sympathetic neurons subjected to nerve growth factor deprivation in culture.”
“The addition of 100 microM adenosine to neurite-bearing DRG neurons inhibited neurite growth by 47% after 2-day exposures in vitro and by 50% after 5 days whereas in the presence of NGF this inhibition was reduced to 28% and 32%, respectively.”

“ Adenosine (1‐100 microM) inhibited neurite outgrowth within the first 24 h and killed about 80% of sympathetic neurons supported by nerve growth factor over the next 2 days in culture.”
