Abstract:CD73 and adenosine have gained prominence in lung cancer research. The NT5E gene encodes CD73, known as an ectonucleotidase, which plays a crucial role within tumor cells, with immune-suppressive properties. Beyond cancer, CD73 exerts an influence on cardiac, neural, and renal functions, affecting cardiac, neural, and renal functions. CD73’s significance lies in its production of extracellular adenosine. It is notably expressed across diverse cell types within the immune and stromal lung microenvironment. CD73… Show more
