Thermo Scientific Chemicals Uridine-5'-triphosphate trisodium salt, 98+%
Description
Uridine-5'-triphosphate trisodium salt, is used as an energy-rich precursor in the enzymatic biosynthesis of RNA, a potent vasodilator, and induces contractile responses in some tissues. Uridine-5?-triphosphate, Trisodium Salt is an activator of P2Y. UTP has been used to study its vasodilatory effects on the skeletal muscle cells of diabetic patients1. UTP has also been used as a purinergic agonist to study ion transport functions of P2Y2 receptors on rat basolateral membranes
