CD73 is a major regulator of adenosinergic signalling in mouse brain.

CD73 (ecto-5'-nucleotidase) is a cell surface enzyme that regulates purinergic signalling by desphosphorylating extracellular AMP to adenosine. 5'-nucleotidases are known to be expressed in brain, but the expression of CD73 and its putative physiological functions at this location remain e...
