Ectonucleotidases in Cancer and Inflammation

In 1970, Geoffrey Burnstock described the release of extra-cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as a transmitter substance by nonadrenergic inhibitory nerves, and later in 1972, he formulated the hypothesis of purinergic neuro-transmission [1]. Together with Che Su and John Bevan, Geoffrey Burnstock built the foundation to what was to become an entirely new field of research in biology [2]. Wh...

Acute and Chronic Inflammation

The inflammatory response consists of an innate system of cellular and humoral responses following injury (such as after heat or cold exposure, ischemia/ reperfusion, blunt trauma, etc.), in which the body attempts to restore the tissue to its preinjury state. In the acute inflammatory response, there is a complex orchestration of events involving leakage of water, salt, and proteins from the v...

Acute and Chronic Pancreatic Inflammation

Acute and chronic pancreatitis result in considerable morbidity, are increasing in incidence, and have a high mortality rate. Due to the inaccessibility of the pancreas to study, our understanding of the pathophysiology of pancreatitis remains limited. Our current knowledge of the evolution of pancreatitis can be described as a progression from an initial injury to both the acinar and ductal co...
