Biological Activity
| Targets |
- P2Y14 receptor (agonist, EC50 = 0.32 ± 0.04 μM) [4] - Pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthesis pathway [3] - Glucuronosyltransferase substrate (for glycosylation reactions) [1] |
| ln Vitro |
- Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucose disodium salt (UDP-glucose) is a selective agonist of the P2Y14 receptor. It activated P2Y14-mediated intracellular Ca²⁺ mobilization in HEK293 cells expressing human P2Y14, with an EC50 of 0.32 ± 0.04 μM [4] - It participated in de novo pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthesis in isolated rat glomeruli: 100 μM UDP-glucose increased [¹⁴C]-orotate incorporation into UTP by 42±3% [3] - It served as a substrate for glucuronosyltransferases, supporting glycosylation reactions in liver microsomal preparations (1 mM concentration enhanced glucuronidation efficiency by 35±4%) [1] - It promoted pro-inflammatory cytokine release in neutrophils: 1 μM UDP-glucose increased TNF-α and IL-6 secretion by 2.1±0.2 and 1.8±0.1-fold, respectively, via P2Y14 activation [2] |
| ln Vivo |
- In rat myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury model: Intraperitoneal injection of Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucose disodium salt (5 mg/kg) exacerbated myocardial inflammation. Myocardial TNF-α and IL-1β levels increased by 2.3±0.2 and 1.9±0.1-fold, and infarct size expanded by 38±3% compared to the control group [2] - It upregulated P2Y14 receptor expression in myocardial neutrophils: 5 mg/kg dose increased P2Y14-positive neutrophil infiltration by 45±4% [2] |
| Enzyme Assay |
- P2Y14 receptor activation assay: HEK293 cells expressing human P2Y14 were loaded with a Ca²⁺-sensitive fluorescent probe, then treated with UDP-glucose (0.01–10 μM). Fluorescence intensity was measured at 485/525 nm to calculate EC50 [4] - Glucuronosyltransferase activity assay: Liver microsomes were incubated with UDP-glucose (0.1–5 mM), UDP-glucuronic acid, and a substrate (e.g., 4-methylumbelliferone). The glucuronidated product was quantified by fluorescence at 365/450 nm [1] - Pyrimidine biosynthesis assay: Isolated rat glomeruli were incubated with [¹⁴C]-orotate and UDP-glucose (10–200 μM) for 4 hours. Radioactivity in UTP fractions was measured by liquid scintillation counting [3] |
| Cell Assay |
- Neutrophil inflammation assay: Isolated human neutrophils were treated with UDP-glucose (0.1–10 μM) for 24 hours. Cytokine (TNF-α, IL-6) levels in supernatants were measured by ELISA [2] - Glomerular cell metabolism assay: Rat glomerular cells were cultured with UDP-glucose (50–200 μM) for 24 hours. Pyrimidine nucleotide (UTP, CTP) levels were quantified by HPLC [3] - P2Y14 Ca²⁺ mobilization assay: HEK293/P2Y14 cells were treated with UDP-glucose (0.01–10 μM), and real-time Ca²⁺ fluorescence was recorded to assess receptor activation [4] |
| Animal Protocol |
- Rat myocardial I/R injury model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (250–300 g) were subjected to 30 minutes of myocardial ischemia followed by 24 hours of reperfusion. Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucose disodium salt (5 mg/kg) was dissolved in normal saline and injected intraperitoneally 30 minutes before reperfusion [2] - Myocardial tissue analysis: Rats were sacrificed 24 hours post-reperfusion. Myocardial infarct size was measured by TTC staining; cytokine levels by ELISA; P2Y14 expression by immunohistochemistry [2] |

| Additional Infomation |
- Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucose disodium salt is an endogenous nucleotide sugar and key intermediate in carbohydrate metabolism [1][3] - Its biological functions include: 1) Acting as a P2Y14 receptor agonist to regulate inflammation; 2) Serving as a substrate for glycosylation reactions (glucuronidation, glycogen synthesis); 3) Participating in pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthesis [1][2][3][4] - It is widely used as a research tool for studying P2Y14 signaling, glycosylation pathways, and nucleotide metabolism [1][4] |
