Abstract

See full text

The invention provides methods for preventing neural tissue damage caused by injury to the central nervous system (CNS) by the administration of a therapeutically effective amount of an adenosinergic agent. One aspect of the invention is directed toward continuous administration of a therapeutically effective amount of an adenosinergic agent for a period of time sufficient to prevent neural tissue damage. In another aspect of the present invention, the adenosinergic agents may be administered on several occasions during the prolonged period of treatment, so long as the doses of adenosinergic agents are spaced in time so that a therapeutically effective concentration of adenosinergic agent is maintained for a period of time sufficient to prevent neural tissue damage.
