Studies in mice with intestinal mucosa-specific deletion of Ent2 and the A2B receptor demonstrate a significant effect of intestinal epithelial Ent2 inhibition and A2B receptor signaling in protecting the colonic mucosal barrier and suggest that a coordinated network of adenosine transport and signaling between Ent2 and the A2B receptor exists at the epithelial surface that can be pharmacologically targeted in colitis.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
