Description | Uridine triphosphate (UTP;Uridine 5'-triphosphate) is a pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphate that participates in glycogen metabolism and synthesis of RNA during transcription. |

In Vitro | Uridine triphosphate treatment induces Schwannoma cell migration through activation of P2Y2 receptors and through the increase of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) activation and expression[1]. Uridine triphosphate-induced proliferation is mediated by protein kinase D, Src-family tyrosine kinase, Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), Akt, and phospholipase D. Uridine triphosphate increases phosphorylation of Akt through protein kinase C, Src-family tyrosine kinase, Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II, and PI3K[2]. |
In Vivo | Uridine triphosphate reduces mitochondrial calcium levels following hypoxia. Early or late uridine triphosphate preconditioning is effective to reduce infarct size and superior myocardial function[3]. Uridine triphosphate treatment increases the number of monocytes and macrophages infiltrating the pouch and up-regulates the gene expression of IL-4 and IL-13 in the regional lymph nodes[4]. |
Cell Assay | Pancreatic duct epithelial cells are treated with (0.1 μM-1 mM) uridine triphosphate. BrdU is added after different time points (12-24 hours). Proliferation is measured using the BrdU incorporation assay in triplicate[2]. |
Animal Admin | Rats: Four main groups are tested: (1) sham without LAD ligation, (2) LAD ligation, (3) injected with UTP (0.44 µg/kg i.v.) 30 min before MI, (4) UTP injection (4.4 µg/kg i.v.) 24 h prior to MI. Several different concentrations of UTP are tested (0.044–44.4 µg/kg). Left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and heart rates are monitored before, after UTP treatment and post MI[3]. |
