Hypoxia: Effects & Pathophysiology & Angiogenesis: The key Processes & Inhibition
Time: 1:00 pm
day: Pre-Conference Day
Details:
Explore the processes and causes of hypoxia to improve your understanding of how agiogenesis can be prevented with adenosine therapeutics. Gain the most up to date information on the critical physiological insights from leading academic and clinical expertise. In this workshop you will:
- Identify and describe the types of tumors that are more or less likely to be hypoxic and how these can be identified
- Review the impacts of hypoxia on cancer resistance and link to:
- Adenosine, ATP, A2AR, Adenosine Deaminase, Adenosine Kinase, CD73, CD39 and CD38
- Revisit the role of adenosine in tumor angiogenesis, the natural drivers, and purine-based inhibitors
- Discuss how these natural processes can be best co-opted Targeting adenosine metabolism – what are the challenges?
