CP-532,903 is a selective adenosine A3 subtype receptor agonist. It has antiinflammatory effects and has been shown to reduce superoxide generation in damaged tissues,[1] and protects against tissue damage following myocardial ischemia,[2] mediated via an interaction with ATP-sensitive potassium channels.[3]
