Bioactivity | Uridine-5'-diphosphate disodium salt is a potent, selective P2Y6 receptor native agonist (EC50=300 nM; pEC50=6.52 for human P2Y6 receptor). Uridine-5'-diphosphate disodium salt, an endogenous metabolite, catalyzes the glucuronidation of a wide array of substrates and is used in nucleic acid (RNA) biosynthesis[1][2]. |
Invitro | Uridine-5'-diphosphate disodium salt (100 μM; for 15 min) significantly induces microglial CCL2 and CCL3 mRNA expression[2]. Uridine-5'-diphosphate disodium salt (100 μM; 3 hours) induces chemokine expression in microglia[2]. Uridine-5'-diphosphate disodium salt (100 μM; 0.5, 1, 3, 6 12 hours) induces expression of mRNA encoding CCL2 and CCL3 within 30 min, and such expression reaches maximal levels at 1 h, returning to basal levels at 3-12 h[2]. Uridine-5'-diphosphate disodium salt (10, 100, 1000 μM; 3 hours) induces a concentration-dependent increase in the expression of chemokines at both the mRNA and protein level[2]. Uridine-5'-diphosphate disodium salt (100 μM; for 15 min) induces activation of NFATc1 and NFATc2 in microglia[2]. Uridine-5'-diphosphate disodium salt is a competitive antagonist at the human P2Y14 receptor (pEC50=7.28) but not rat P2Y14 receptor[1]. UDP-glucose (UDPG; HY-N7032) is a potent P2Y14 agonist[3][4].
