“Similar findings were obtained with GTP gamma S. These effects of tiazofurin treatment on guanine nucleotide binding were also associated with decreased adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation of specific G protein substrates by cholera and pertussis toxin.”
“The maximal uptake of tiazofurin was 8.29 +/- 0.84% and was shown to be both carrier-mediated, sodium-dependent and inhibited by adenosine which suggests that it uses the carrier for endogenous nucleosides.”

“Introduction … adenosine into the perfusing medium (0.005-0.2 mmol/l) caused similar but more rapid decrease of [3H]-tiazofurin brain clearance (Ki = 6.36 +/- 3.14 x 10(-6) mol/l for nucleus caudate and 11.74 +/- 4.85 x 10(-6) mol/l for cerebral cortex).”
