| Description | Our previous studies showed that the combined administration of drugs elevating extracellular adenosine, i.e., dipyridamole and adenosine monophosphate (AMP), enhanced hematopoiesis in normal mice and increased hematopoietic recovery in irradiated mice. In the present study, we have examined the possibility that these effects are due to the adenosine-induced cycling of the hematopoietic progenitor cells. |
