5.6.7-TRISUBSTITUTED~-AMINOPYR1D0(2,3-D1PYRIMIDINE COMPOUNDS
This application is a conversion of copending provisional U.S. patent
application
Serial No. 60/043,252, filed April 16, 1997.
Technical Field
S The present invention relates a method for inhibiting adenosine kinase by
administering 5,6,7-trisubstituted-4-aminopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine compounds,
to
phannaceutiaal compositions containing such compounds, as well as novel 5.6.7-
trisubstituted-
4-aminopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine compounds.
Background Of The Invention
Adenosine kinase (ATP:adenosine 5'-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.20) is a
ubiquitous
enzyme which catalyzes the phosphorylation of adenosine to AMP, using ATP,
preferentially,
as the phosphate source. Adenosine kinase has broad tissue and species
distribution, and has
been isolated from yeast, a variety of mammalian sources and certain
microorganisms. It has
1S been found to be present in virtually every human tissue assayed including
kidney, liver, brain,
spleen, placenta and pancreas. Adenosine kinase is a key enzyme in the control
of the cellular
concentrations of adenosine.
Adenosine is a purine nucleoside that is an intermediate in the pathways of
purine
nucleotide degradation and salvage. Adenosine also has many important
physiologic effects,
many of which are mediated through the activation of specific ectocellular
receptors, termed
P1 receptors (Bumstock, in Cell Membrane Receptors for Drugs and Hormones,
1978, (Bolts
and Straub, eds.) Raven, New York, pp. 107-118; Fredholm, et al., Pharmacol.
Rev. 1994, 46:
143-156).
In the central nervous system, adenosine inhibits the release of certain
neurotransmitters (Corradetti, et al., Eur. J. Pharmacol. 1984, 104: 19-26),
stabilizes
membrane potential (Rudolphi, et al., Cerebrovasc. Brain Metab. Rev. 1992, 4:
346-360),
functions as an endogenous anticonvulsant (Dragunow, Trends Pharmacol. Sci.
1986, 7: 128-
130) and may have a role as an endogenous neuroprotective agent (Rudolphi, et
al., Trends
Pharmacol. Sci., 1992, 13: 439-445). Adenosine may play a role in several
disorders of the
central nervous system such as schizophrenia, anxiety, depression and
Parkinson's disease.
(Williams, M., in Psychopharmacology: The Fourth Generation of Progress;
Bloom, Kupfer
(eds.), Raven Press, New York, 1995, pp 643-655.
Adenosine has also been implicated in modulating transmission in pain pathways
in the
spinal cord (Sawynok, et al., Br. J. Pharmacol., 1986, 88: 923-930), and in
mediating the
analgesic effects of morphine (Sweeney, et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 1987,
243: 657-665).


CA 02286592 1999-10-12
WO 98/46604 PCT/US98/07201
In the immune system, adenosine inhibits certain neutrophil functions and
exhibits
anti-inflammatory effects (Cronstein, J. Appl. Physiol. 1994, 76: 5-I3). An AK
inhibitor has
been reported to decrease paw swelling in a model of adjuvant arthritis in
rats (Firestein, et.al.,
Arthritis and Rheumatism, 1993, 36, S48.
Adenosine also exerts a variety of effects on the cardiovascular system,
including
vasodilation, impairment of atrioventricular conduction and endogenous
cardioprotection in
myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (Mullane and Williams, in Adenosine and
Adenosine
Receptors. 1990 (Williams, ed.) Humana Press, New Jersey, pp. 289-334). The
widespread
actions of adenosine also include effects on the renal, respiratory,
gastrointestinal and
reproductive systems, as well as on blood cells and adipocytes. Adenosine, via
its A1 receptor
activation on adipocytes, plays a role in diabetes by inhibiting lipolysis
[Londos, et al., Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1980, 77, 2551.
Endogenous adenosine release appears to have a role as a natural defense
mechanism
in various pathophysiologic conditions, including cerebral and myocardial
ischemia, seizures,
pain, inflammation and sepsis. While adenosine is normally present at low
levels in the
extracellular space, its release is locally enhanced at the sites) of
excessive cellular activity,
trauma or metabolic stress. Once in the extracellular space, adenosine
activates specific
extracellular receptors to elicit a variety of responses which tend to restore
cellular function
towards nonnai (Bruns, Nucleosides Nucleotides. 1991, 10: 931-943; Miller and
Hsu, J.
Neurotrauma, 1992, 9: S563-S577). Adenosine has a half life measured in
seconds in
extracellular fluids (Moser, et al., Am. J. Physiol. 1989, 25: 0799-C806}, and
its endogenous
actions are therefore highly localized.
The inhibition of adenosine kinase can result in augmentation of the local
adenosine
concentrations at foci of tissue injury, further enhancing cytoprotection.
This effect is likely
to be most pronounced at tissue sites where trauma results in increased
adenosine production,
thereby minimizing systemic toxicities.
Pharmacologic compounds directed towards adenosine kinase inhibition provide
potentially effective new therapies far disorders benefited by the site- and
event-specific
potentiation of adenosine. Disorders where such compounds may be useful
include ischemic
conditions such as cerebral ischemia, myocardial ischemia, angina, coronary
artery bypass
graft surgery (CABG), percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTCA), stroke,
other
thrombotic and embolic conditions, and neurological disorders such as
epilepsy, anxiety,
schizophrenia, nociperception including pain perception, neuropathic pain,
visceral pain, as
well as inflammation, arthritis, immunosuppression, sepsis, diabetes and
gastrointestinal
disfunctions such as abnormal gastrointestinal motility.
A number of compounds have been reported to inhibit adenosine kinase. The most
potent of these include 5'-amino-5'-deoxyadenosine (Miller, et al., J. Biol.
Chem. 1979, Z54:
-2-


CA 02286592 1999-10-12
WO 98/46604 PCT/US98/07201
2339-2345), 5-iodotubercidin (Wotring and Townsend, Cancer Res. 1979, 39: 3018-
3023)
and 5'-deoxy-5-iodotubercidin (Davies, et al., Biochem. Pharmacol. 1984, 33:
347-355).
Adenosine kinase is also responsible for the activation of many
pharmacologically
active nucleosides (Miller, et al., J. Biol. Chem. 1979, 254: 2339-2345),
including tubercidin,
formycin, ribavirin, pyrazofurin and 6-(methylmercapto)purine riboside. These
purine
° nucleoside analogs represent an important group of antimetaboiites
which possess cytotoxic,
anticancer and antiviral properties. They serve as substrates for adenosine
kinase and are
phosphorylated by the enzyme to generate the active form. The loss of
adenosine kinase
activity has been implicated as a mechanism of cellular resistance to the
pharmacological
effects of these nucleoside analogs (e.g. Bennett, et al., Mol. Pharmacol.,
1966, 2: 432-443;
Caldwell, et al., Can. J. Biochem., 1967, 45: 735-744; Suttle, et al.. Europ.
J. Cancer, 1981,
17: 43-51 ). Decreased cellular levels of adenosine kinase have also been
associated with
resistance to the toxic effects of 2'-deoxyadenosine (Hershfield and Kredich,
Proc. Natl. Acad.
Sci. USA, 1980, 77: 4292-4296). The accumulation of deoxyadenosine
triphosphate (dATP),
derived from the phosphorylation of Z'-deoxyadenosine, has been suggested as a
toxic
mechanism in the immune defect associated with inheritable adenosine deaminase
deficiency
(Kredich and Hershfleld, in The Metabolic Basis of Inherited Diseases, 1989
(Scriver, et al.,
eds.), McGraw-Hill, New York, pp. 1045-1075).

lauryl sulfate or
mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage forms
may also comprise
buffering agents.
Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft
and hard
filled gelatin capsules, using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar, as
well as high molecular
weight polyethylene glycols, and the like.
Solid dosage forms such as tablets, dragees, capsules, pills and granules may
be
prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings and others well
known in this art.

and
waxes.
The active compounds may also be in micro-encapsulated form, if appropriate,
with
one or more of the above-mentioned excipients.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically
acceptable
emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the
active compounds, the
liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such
as water or
other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers, as for example, ethyl
alcohol, isopropyl
alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate,

butyiene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils, in particular, cottonseed oil,
groundnut oil, com
germ oil, olive oil, castor oil and sesame oil, glycerol, tetrahydr~furfuryl
alcohol, polyethylene
glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan or mixtures of these substances, and
the like.
Besides such inert diluents, these liquid dosage forms may also include
adjuvants, such
as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring
and perfuming
agents.

microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, agar-agar and
tragacanth, or
mixtures of these substances, and the like.
Compositions for rectal or vaginal administrations are preferably
suppositories which
can be prepared by mixing the compounds of this invention with suitable non-
irritating
excipients or carriers such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a
suppository wax, which are
solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at body temperature and therefore,
melt in the rectum
or vaginal cavity and release the active component.
Dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration of a compound of this
invention further include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, powders,
solutions, sprays,
inhalants or trarLSdermal patches. Transdennal administration via a
transdermal patch is a
particularly effective and preferred dosage form of the present invention. The
active
component is admixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically
acceptable carrier and
any needed preservative, buffers or propellants as may be required. It is
known that some
agents may require special handling in the preparation of transdermal patch
formulations. For
example, compounds that are volatile in nature may require admixture with
special
formulating agents or with special packaging materials to assure proper dosage
delivery. In
addition, compounds which are very rapidly absorbed through the skin may
require
formulation with absorption-retarding agents or barriers. Ophthalmic
formulations, eye
ointments, powders and solutions are also contemplated as being within the
scope of this
invention.
The present compounds may also be administered in the form of liposomes. As is
known in the art, liposomes are generally derived from phospholipids or other
lipid
substances. Liposomes are formed by mono- or mufti-lamellar hydrated liquid
crystals that are
dispersed in an aqueous medium. Any non-toxic, physiologically acceptable and
metabolizable lipid capable of forming liposomes may be used. The present
compositions in
liposome form may contain, in addition to the compounds of the present
invention, stabilizers,
preservatives, excipients, and the like. The preferred lipids are the
phospholipids and the
phosphatidyl cholines (lecithins), both natural and synthetic. Methods to form
liposomes are
known in the art. See, for example, Prescott, Ed., Methods in Cell Biolotw,
Volume XIV,
Academic Press, New York, N. Y., (1976), p 33 et seq.

Compound (3) is then reacted with compounds (4, the "RS reagent") wherein RS
is
substituted aryl, heteroaryl, or a heterocyclic compounds to prepare compound
(5) according
to the literature procedure of Nahm and Weinreb (Tetrahedron Lett. 1981. 22:
3815).
Compounds (4) are obtainable commercially or easily prepared by standard
methods in the
art. Compound (5) is then reacted with an appropriately substituted aldehyde
(6, the "R3
Reagent"), wherein R3 is aryl, heteroaryl, or a heterocyclic group, and
maiononitrile (7) by
heating in the presence of ammonium acetate, or another suitable ammonium
salt, such as for
example, ammonium propionate, ammonium iodide, or the like, in an suitable
solvent to
produce compound (8). Suitable soivents include ethanol, benzene, toluene,
methylene
chloride, DMF, THF, dioxane, and the like. The water of the reaction may
removed by use of
a Dean Stork apparatus or by another suitable means, such as 4 A molecular
sieves. The
reaction may be performed at from about 40 °C to about 200 °C,
and preferably at the reflux
temperature of the solvent, for from about 1 hour to about 24 hours,
preferably about 4 hours
to 8 hours. The product (8) is preferably purified by chromatography after
isolation from the
reaction mixture.
The appropriate aldehyde starting materials (6) may be obtained commercially,
or may
be prepared easily, for example by reductions of esters or acids with DIBAL or
another
suitable hydride reducing agent, or oxidation of alcohols under Swem
conditions, for
example. Aliphatic aldehydes do not work effectively by this route. The ketone
(5) may,
however, include RS as alkyl groups.
Compound (8) is then treated with excess formamide by heating at refiux. The
formation of product is monitored by TLC, and when the reaction is complete
(after about 1 to
about 8 hours) the reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature. The desired
5,6,7-
trisubstituted pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine product (I) is then removed by
filtration and.purified
by column chromatography. This compound may then be partially or fully reduced
by
catalytic hydrogenation to the partially saturated or fully saturated
versions) (on the right side
of the molecule) of the compounds shown in Scheme 1 or of formula I.
Stereoisomers
produced in the reduction process or steps) are included within the scope of
the invention.
The invention also includes those compounds wherein a single bond is between
the 5,6 and 7,8
positions and a double bond is present between the 6,7 carbons. The
stereoisomers may be
isolated and purified by conventional means.
In an alternate procedure, compound (8) is treated by heating with formamidine
acetate in ethoxyethanol or diglyme, followed by purification by flash
chromatography. In
another alternate procedure, compound (8) and ammonium sulfate are heated at
reflux in
triethyl orthoformate for about 1 to about 8 hours, but preferably about 2
hours. The reaction
mixture is cooled and added to a mixture of ammonia in ethanol. The mixture is
stirred for
about 12 to 24 hours at 25 °C, then at reflux for from one to 4 hours,
and the solvent is

removed in vacuo. The residue is purified by trituration with chloroform/ethyl
acetate, and the
product may be converted to a hydrochloride salt by suspension in 3M HCI,
followed by
lyophilization.
It is possible to prepare the desired compound of Formula (I) wherein Rland R2
are
not both hydrogen atoms from the compound of Formula (I) wherein R1 and R2 are
both
hydrogen atoms. When R1 or R2 is loweralkyl this may be accomplished by
reaction of the
free amino group with the appropriate alkylating reagent, such as an alkyl
halide, an alkyl
mesylate or an alkyl tosylate, for example, in the presence of a base such as
triethylamine or
potassium carbonate in a suitable solvent, such as for example, methylene
chloride or THF.
When R1 or R2 is arylalkyl this may be accomplished by reaction of the free
amino group with
the appropriate arylalkyl halide, an allcyl mesylate or an alkyl tosylate, for
example, in the
presence of a base such as triethylamine or potassium carbonate in a suitable
solvent, such as
for example, methylene chloride or THF. When R1 or R2 is acyl this may be
accomplished by
reaction of the free amino group with the appropriate acid anhydride, acyl
chloride or
activated acyi group, in the presence of a base such as triethylamine or
potassium carbonate in
a suitable solvent, such as for example, methylene chloride or THF. When R1
and R2 are taken
together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached to form a 5-to-7
membered ring
optionally containing an additional oxygen or nitrogen atom, the compound may
be prepared
by reacting a precursor compound having a halogen atom in place of the amino
group at the
4-position with a 5-7 membered ring compound optionally containing an
additional oxygen
or nitrogen atom. The precursor compound having a halogen atom in place of the
amino
group at the 4-position may be prepared by substitution of treatment with
sulfuric acid with
heating followed by treatment with ~triethyl orthoformate for the treatment
with formamide (cf.
Scheme 1 wherein compound (8) is converted to compound (I)) followed by
chlorination at
the 4-position of the ring by treatment with phosphorous oxychloride or
thionyl chloride.
Also, this alternate procedure may be used to prepare alkyl substituted amino
compounds, for example by reacting the chloro compound with a mono- or
disubstituted
amine, such as for example, diethylamine, allyl amine, dibutylamine. This
reaction takes place
readily in a solvent such as methylene chloride, for example, in the presence
of a tertiary
amine. Examples of the rings possible wherein R1 and R2 are taken together
with the nitrogen
atom to which they are attached to form a 5-to-7 membered ring optionally
containing an
additional oxygen or nitrogen atom, include, but are not limited to,
morpholine, piperidine,
pyrrolidine, piperazine, thiomorpholine, and the like.

Method of Inhibiting ICinase
In yet another aspect of the present invention a method of inhibiting
adenosine kinase
is disclosed. In accordance with that process, an adenosine kinase enzyme is
exposed to an
effective inhibiting amount of an adenosine kinase inhibitor compound of the
present
invention. Preferred such compounds for use in the method are the same as set
forth above.
Means for determining an effective inhibiting amount are well known in the
art.
The adenosine kinase to be inhibited can be located in vitro, in situ or in
vivo. Where
the adenosine kinase is located in vitro, adenosine kinase is contacted with
the inhibitor
compound, typically by adding the compound to an aqueous solution containing
the enzyme,
radiolabeled substrate adenosine, magnesium chloride and ATP. The enzyme can
exist in
intact cells or in isolated subcellular fractions containing the enzyme. The
enzyme is then
maintained in the presence of the inhibitor for a period of time and under
suitable
physiological conditions. Means for determining maintenance times are well
known in the art
and depend inter aiia on the concentrations of enzyme and the physiological
conditions.
Suitable physiological conditions are those necessary to maintain adenosine
kinase viability
and include temperature, acidity, tonicity and the like. Inhibition of
adenosine kinase can be
performed, by example, according to standard procedures well known in the art
(Yamada, et
al., Comp. Biochem. Physiol. 1982, 71B: 367-372).
Where the adenosine kinase is located in situ or in vivo, a compound of the
invention
is typically administered to a fluid perfusing the tissue containing the
enzyme. That fluid can
be a naturally occuring fluid such as blood or plasma or an artificial fluid
such as saline,
Ringer's solution and the like. A method of inhibiting adenosine kinase in
vivo is particularly
useful in mammals such as humans. Administering an inhibitor compound is
typically
accomplished by the parenteral (e.g., intravenous injection or oral)
administration of the
compound. The amount administered is an effective inhibiting or therapeutic
amount.
By a "therapeutically-effective amount" of the compound of the invention is
meant a
sufficient amount of the compound to treat or mitigate adenosine kinase
related disorders
which broadly include those diseases, disorders or conditions which are
benefited by inhibition
of adenosine kinase, at a reasonable benefit/risk ratio applicable to any
medical treatment. It
will be understood, however, that the total daily usage of the compounds and
compositions of
the present invention is to be decided by the attending physician within the
scope of sound
medical judgment. The specific therapeutically-effective dose level for any
particular patient
will depend upon a variety of factors including the disorder being treated and
the severity of
the disorder, activity of the specific compound employed; the specific
composition employed;
-28-


CA 02286592 1999-10-12
WO 98/46604 PCT/US98/07201
the age, body weight, general health, gender and diet of the patient the time
of administration.
mute of administration, and rate of excretion of the specific compound
employed: the
duration of the treatment; drugs used in combination or coincidental with
specific compound
employed; and the like factors well known in the medical arts and well within
the capabilities
of attending physicians.
Compounds of the present invention inhibit adenosine kinase activity in vitro
and in
vivo. In vitro adenosine kinase activity can be measured using any of the
standard procedures
well known in the art. By way of example, cells containing adenosine kinase,
such as IMR-32
human neuroblastoma cells, are cultured in the presence and absence of an
inhibitor.
Inhibition is measured as the ability to inhibit phosphorylation of endogenous
or externally
applied 14C-adenosine by these cells. The cells can be intact or broken. The
specificity of
adenosine kinase inhibitory activity is determined by studying the effects of
inhibitors on
adenosine A1 and A2a receptor binding, adenosine deaminase activity and
adenosine
transport.
Compounds of the present invention are effective in inhibiting adenosine
kinase
activity in vivo. Numerous animal models for studying adenosine kinase
activity and the
affects of inhibiting such activity are well known in the art. By way of
example, adenosine
kinase inhibitors have been reported to protect rodents (e.g., mice and rats)
from seizures
induced by the subcutaneous administration of pentylenetetrazol (PT27.
Typically the rodents
are injected with various doses of a given inhibitor followed at various times
by the
subcutaneous administration of from about 10 to about 500 milligrams per
kilogram of PTZ.
The injected animals are then observed for the onset of seizures.
The compounds of the invention were tested in vivo in the hot plate test of
analgesia in
mammals such as mice. For example, the compounds of examples 19 and 27 in the
procedure
described directly below were tested thirty minutes after pretreatment with
the drugs (30
p,mol/kg i,p,) for latency to 10th jump (in seconds). The longer the number of
seconds, the
more effective the drug at masking the pain felt from the hot plate. Compound
19 resulted in
142.13 seconds relative to the vehicle alone of 72.76110.51 seconds. Compound
27 resulted
in 154.86 seconds. Compounds of the invention are therefore potent pain
relievers as
demonstrated in this animal model.
Mouse Hot Plate Assay
Male CFl mice (Charles River) of approximately 25-30 g body weight are
pretreated
with 10 ml/kg of the test compounds, i.p, or p.o, in groups of 8 animals per
dose. At the end
of the pretreatment period, the mice are placed in an Omnitech Electronics
Automated 16
Animal Hot Plate Analgesia Monitor (Columbus, OH; Modei AHP16AN) in
individual, 9.8 x
7.2 x 15.3 cm (I x w x h) plastic enclosures on top of a copper piste warmed
to SSoC.

and latency to both the first and tenth jumps are used for data analysis. Mice
that do not reach
the criteria of 10 jumps by 180 seconds are immediately removed from the
hotplate to avoid
tissue damage, and they are assigned the maximum value of 180 seconds as their
latency to
tenth jump.
Numerous other animal models of adenosine kinase activity have been described
[See.
e.g., Davies" et al., Biochem. Pharmacol., 33:347-355 (1984); Keil, et al.,
Eur. J. Pharmacol.,
271:37-46 (1994); Murray, et al., Drug Development Res., 28:410-415 (1993)].
Numerous inhibitor compounds of the present invention were tested in vitro and
found to inhibit adenosine kinase activity. The results of some representative
studies are
shown in Table 1 below. The data indicate that the compounds inhibit adenosine
kinase.

Method of Treating Cerebral Ischemia, Epilepsy,
Nociperception (Nociception) (Pain), Inflammation including
20 conditions such as Septic Shock due to Sepsis Infection
In yet another aspect of the present invention a method of treating cerebral
ischemia,
epilepsy, nociperception or nociception> inflammation including conditions
such as septic
shock due to sepsis infection in a human or lower mammal is disclosed,
comprising
administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a compound.
25 Alterations in cellular adenosine kinase activity have been observed in
certain
disorders. Adenosine lcinase activity was found to be decreased, relative to
normal liver, in a
variety of rat hepatomas: activity of the enzyme giving a negative correlation
with tumor
growth rate (Jackson, et al., Br. J. Cancer, 1978, 37: 701-713). Adenosine
kinase activity was
-30-


CA 02286592 1999-10-12
WO 98/46604 PCT/US98/07201
also diminished in regenerating liver after partial hepatectomy in
experimental animals
(Jackson, et al., Br. J. Cancer, 1978. 37: 701-713). Erythrocyte Adenosine
kinase activity was
found to be diminished in patients with gout (Nishizawa, et al., Clin. Chim.
Acta 1976. 67: 15-
20). Lymphocyte adenosine kinase activity was decreased in patients infected
with the human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) exhibiting symptoms of AIDS, and increased in
asymptomatic
HIV-seropositive and HIV-seronegative high-risk subjects, compared to normal
healthy
controls (Renouf, et al., Clin. Chem. 1989, 35: 1478-1481). It has been
suggested that
measurement of adenosine kinase activity may prove useful in monitoring the
clinical progress
of patients with HIV infection (Renouf, et al., Clin. Ckem. 1989, 35: 1478-
1481). Sepsis
infection may lead to a systemic inflammatory syndrome (SIRS), characterized
by an increase
in cytokine production, neutrophil accumulation, hemodynamic effects, and
tissue damage or
death. The ability of adenosine kinase inhibitor to elevate adenosine levels
in tissues has been
demonstrated to ameliorate syndrome symptoms, due to the known anti-
inflammatory effects
of adenosine. (Firestein, et al., J. of lmmlinology, 1994, pp. 5853-5859). The
ability of
adenosine kinase inhibitors to elevate adenosine levels is expected to
alleviate pain states, since
it has been demonstrated that administration of adenosine or its analogs
results in
antinociception or antinociperception. (Swaynok, et al., Neuroscience, 1989.
32: No. 3, pp.
557-569).
