    Notes: Immune cell-mediated destruction of pathogens may result in excessive collateral damage to normal tissues, and the failure to control activated immune cells may cause immunopathologies. The search for physiological mechanisms that downregulate activated immune cells has revealed a critical role for extracellular adenosine and for immunosuppressive A2A adenosine receptors in protecting tissue from inflammatory damage. Tissue damage-associated deep hypoxia, hypoxia-inducible factors, and hypoxia-induced accumulation of adenosine may represent one of the most fundamental and immediate tissue-protecting mechanisms, with adenosine A2A receptors triggering "OFF" signals in activated immune cells. In these regulatory mechanisms, oxygen deprivation and extracellular adenosine accumulation serve as "reporters," while A2A adenosine receptors serve as "sensors" of excessive tissue damage. The A2A receptor-triggered generation of intracellular cAMP then inhibits activated immune cells in a delayed negative feedback manner to prevent additional tissue damage. Targeting A2A adenosine receptors may have important clinical applications.

    Notes: Abstract The distribution of the main axes of double radio sources is used to test isotropy of that part of the universe which is accessible to radio investigations. Data for 274 double and/or extended sources have been taken from the literature to compute the fit to several simple models of global orientation by means of a χ2-test. The best fit has been found on a 3%-significance level for the preferred orientation along a right-handed helix with pitch angle 82° in the direction α=95°, δ=−38° (1≅65°,b=≅20°). This preferential alignment of radio sources is assumed to be caused by a largescale magnetic field.
