This invention concerns a method of inducing an elevated level of adenosine in an individual by administering to said individual an effective amount of either i) recombinant protein CD73 or ii) a cytokine or another factor-being capable of inducing endothelial CD73 expression, or a combination thereof. Furthermore, the invention concerns a method for prevention or treatment of a disease or disorder requiring or benefiting from the elevation of the adenosine level in an individual, such as inflammatory conditions. Furthermore, the invention concerns a method of up-regulating endothelial CD73 expression in an individual by administering to said individual an effective amount of a cytokine or another factor being capable of inducing endothelial CD73 expression, and to a method for prevention or treatment of a disease or disorder requiring or benefiting from up-regulating endothelial CD73 expression. |
