These volumes record the presentations made at the VIII International Symposium on Purine and Pyrimidine Metabolism in Manheld at Indiana University, Bloomington, USA from May 22- May 27, 1994. This was a continuation of meetings held every three years with the idea of bringing clinicians and basic scientists together, which we hope results in cross-fertilization of ideas. Some of the papers presented in this volume represent oral contributions and others are from posters, but we emphasize that both are considered of equal merit. As is obvious from a perusal of the titles of the papers there has been a shift in the focus of this meeting, which reflects a general shift in the area of purine and pyrimidine metabolism. The emphasis has definitely shifted to gene structure and molecular genetics, with the beginnings we hope of gene therapy as an important branch of this area of science. Although many of the inherited diseases discussed in this text can be treated with drugs, the major thrust in the futurewill be in gene therapy, where the gene (or cDNA) will be used to treat the patient with enzyme deficiency, particularly if the patient is young. As can be seen from the Iist of authors there is a remarkable degree of international cooperation in this area across countries and continents. We thank the many participants who have attended these symposia many times, and we welcome the large group of scientists from Eastern Europe who are attending this meeting for the first time.

Physiological, pharmacological and molecular biological data generated over the past three decades have demonstrated the existence of two major families of extracellular receptors, the P1, a family of four G-protein coupled receptors and the P2, a family of at least 12 receptors responsive to purine (ATP, ADP) and pyrimidine (UTP) nucleotides through which adenosine and ATP can function as extracellular messengers. The present two-part volume represents an integrated compendium of invited chapters by leading researchers in the area focusing on advances in the understanding of purinergic and pyrimidinergic signaling systems, their role(s) in tissue function and pathophysiology and advances in developing potential new medications based on the modulation of P1 and P2 receptor signaling processes. The volumes will thus provide the reader with a topical, comprehensive and integrated overview of this important area.

Research on purine derivatives as potent and selective modulators of physiologic functions has moved to center stage. This volume covers the biology and chemistry of purines and of their receptors broadly under these section headings: - Adenosine Receptors and Effector Systems - Adenine Nucleotide Receptors and Effector Systems - Phosphodiesterase Enzymes and Inhibitors The presentations focus on the potential development of clinically useful drugs and powerful agents that activate or block purinergic receptors or that inhibit phosphodiesterases. Xanthines (caffeine and theophylline) represent one class of such agents. This volume is for pharmacologists, biochemists, and medical chemists in research labs of universities, gov- ernment, and the pharmaceutical industry.

th th This volume comprizes articles presented at the joint IX International and 6 Euro pean Symposium on Purine and Pyrimidine Metabolism in Man held in Gmunden, Austria, June 1 through 7, 1997. Since the first of this series of meetings was held in Israel in 1973, conventions were organized every three years in different parts of the world including the USA, Japan, and Europe. The different aspects of purine and pyrimidine metabolism bring together re searchers working in molecular genetics, biochemical pharmacology, biochemistry, devel opmental biology, immunology, epidemiology and the clinics. Oriented research in the field has been seminal for the development of potent anticancer and antiviral drugs. As the number of genes which are cloned, grows, the understanding of metabolism is increas ingly enlarged and might provide leads to further improve therapeutic concepts and to bet ter understand mechanisms responsible for the development of resistance against these drugs. In certain diseases purine and pyrimidine analogs represent not only the drugs of choice but in fact are the sole therapeutic alternative at present. The field has also taken an early lead in attempting to correct inborn errors of purine and pyrimidine metabolism by gene therapy. The organization of this meeting involved a large number of people who dedicated their time in an effort to make this symposium a success. We thank the Abstract Review Committee, the International Advisory Board and in particular the Symposium Secretariat for doing a wonderful job.

These two volumes record the scientific and clinical work presented at the VIIth International and 3rd European joint symposium on purine and pyrimidine metabolism in man held at the Bournemouth International Conference Centre, Bournemouth, UK, from 30th June to 5th July 1991. The series of international meetings at three yearly intervals have previously been held initially in 1973 in Israel, then Austria, Spain, the Netherlands, USA and Japan. The European society for the Study of Purine and Pyrimidine Metabolism in Man (ESSPPM) which has its own executive and some finance first met in Switzerland in 1987, then in Germany in 1989. The steady evolution of the science in this series of meetings is intellectually satisfying; the subsequent clinical progress is emotionally and economically reassuring. As befits the position of purines and pyrimidines at the centre of biochemistry, there has been steady scientific development into molecular genetics and now onto developmental controls and biochemical pharmacology. The complexities of the immune system are being unravelled but an understanding of the human brain largely eludes us. Laboratory based scientists now predominate over those who work as clinical specialists in vii rheumatology, immunology, oncology and paediatrics. However, there continue to be major clinical objectives since large sections are concerned with major causes of death like ATP depletion, cancer and now AIDS; the laboratory work is providing clinical solutions.

Edited by Kenneth A. Jacobson and Michael F. Jarvis The roles of extracellular purines and pyrimidines in cellularhomeostasis and disease etiology have come to be understoodgradually over the past 40 years. However, due to the recentcloning and expression of receptors for ATP and adenosine, novelcompounds have been developed with unique therapeutic potential forthe treatment of thrombosis, stroke, epilepsy, chronic pain,immunological disorders, and cancer. As a result, the study ofadenosine- and ATP-mediated responses in cellular regulation isentering a phase of opportunity and development unmatched since thedays of serotonin receptor research in the 1970s. The only definitive book on the topic, Purinergic Approaches inExperimental Therapeutics covers all of the major therapeuticapplications of purinergic receptors and reflects the very latestdevelopments in this new area of therapeutic research. Twenty-eightchapters, authored by an international group of contributors whoare the leading authorities in the field, provide details onmolecular pharmacology; medicinal chemistry; and therapeuticimplications, including cardiology, metabolism, immunology,neurology, and cancer. Among the topics covered: * Purinergic Neurotransmission and Neuromodulation: A HistoricalPerspective * Adenosine Receptor Subtypes: New Insights from Cloning andFunctional Studies * Modulators of Adenosine Uptake, Release, and Inactivation * Cardiac Electrophysiology of Adenosine: Antiarrhythmic andProarrhythmic Actions * Purinergic Modulation of Gastrointestinal Function * The Role of Adenosine in Asthma * ATP in Brain Function * ATP in the Treatment of Cancer For researchers in pharmacology, physiology, molecular biology, andmedicinal chemistry, Purinergic Approaches in ExperimentalTherapeutics heralds an exciting new era in the understanding ofpurinergic neurotransmission and the development of noveltherapeutic modalities.

th This volume contains articles presented at the X International Symposium on Purines and Pyrimidines in Man, held on May 14 19, 2000 in Tel Aviv, Israel. The first symposium in this series took place in Tel Aviv in 1973. Since then, the symposium has been held every three years in different parts of the world, including Europe, USA and Japan. The participants, in this series of symposia, are characterised by a wide interest in the various aspects of purines and pyrimidines in man, which include biochemistry, genetics, pharmacology, physiology, clinics, etc. Presentations in the symposia include clarification of metabolic pathways, characterisation of enzyme structure and kinetics and discoveries of new inborn errors of metabolism and suggestions for new therapeutic approaches for these inborn errors. In addition, development of new purine and pyrimidine derivatives for the treatment of cancer and viral diseases, and many more subjects of mutual interest were brought to the fore. With the development of therapeutic means and of new research tools, we have witnessed changes in the areas of interest. The interest in gout and uric acid urolithiasis has lessened, whereas molecular aspects, the role of purine and pyrimidine substances in neurotransmission and in purinergic signaling appear to gain greater interest. The articles, included in this volume, contain new data pertaining to the various aspects detailed above.
