In animal studies it has been observed that the inhibitory neuromodulator adenosine is released into the cerebral interstitial space during hypoxic challenges. Adenosine's actions on the A adenosine receptor (AAR) protect the brain from oxygen deprivation and overexertion through adjustments in cerebral blood flow, metabolism, and electric activity. Using 8-cyclopentyl-3-(3-[F]fluoropropyl)-1-propylxanthine ([F]CPFPX), a PET tracer for the AAR, we tested the hypothesis that hypoxia-induced adenosine release reduces AAR availability in the human brain.

The regulation of red blood cell (RBC) homeostasis by erythropoietin (EPO) is critical for O2 transport and maintaining the adequate number of RBCs in vertebrates. Therefore, dysregulation in EPO synthesis results in disease conditions such as polycythemia in the case of excessive EPO production and anemia, which occurs when EPO is inadequately produced. EPO plays a crucial role in treating anemic patients; however, its overproduction can increase blood viscosity, potentially leading to fatal heart failure.
