reproductive system

abnormal penile erection ( J:135978 )

♂ • mice exhibit increased corpus cavernosal smooth muscle relaxation in response to nerve stimulation

♂ • however, treatment with an Adora2b antagonist or PEG-ADA reduces priapic activity

priapism ( J:135978 )

♂ • mice exhibit priapism that is associated with elevated levels of adenosine

♂ • however, treatment with an Adora2b antagonist or PEG-ADA reduces priapic activity
