Bruce N. Cronstein is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Medicine at New York University. He also serves as a Research Professor in the Department of Pathology. His research primarily focuses on adenosine and its regulatory effects on physiological functions. He has explored the role of adenosine receptors in inflammation, fibrosis, and wound healing, helping to advance the understanding of how these receptors contribute to the body's response to injury and stressors. Cronstein's work has shown that adenosine can resolve inflammation and is critical in treating tissue injuries to prevent complications such as superinfections. He has also demonstrated that low-dose weekly methotrexate employs adenosine receptors for its anti-inflammatory effects, reinforcing the drug's status as a standard treatment for inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.
