Uridine triphosphate  (Synonyms: UTP; Uridine 5'-triphosphate)

Cat. No.: HY-107372
Handling Instructions

Uridine triphosphate (UTP) is a pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphate that is used as a substrate to synthesize RNA or as an energy source in metabolic reactions. Uridine triphosphate activates membrane-bound P2Y2 receptors.

The free form of the compound is prone to instability, it is advisable to consider the stable salt form (Uridine triphosphate trisodium salt) that retains the same biological activity.

For research use only. We do not sell to patients.

Description

Uridine triphosphate (UTP) is a pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphate that is used as a substrate to synthesize RNA or as an energy source in metabolic reactions. Uridine triphosphate activates membrane-bound P2Y2 receptors[1][2].

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

Uridine triphosphate (UTP) (0, 10, 100, 250, 500, and 1000 µM; 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 h) enhances RT4-D6P2T cells migration and wound repair. Uridine triphosphate induces Schwannoma cell migration through activation of P2Y2 receptors and through the increase of extracellular MMP-2 activation and expression[2].
Uridine triphosphate (UTP) evokes MAPK phosphorylation in a biphasic pattern MAPK phosphorylation, with an early transient phosphorylation 5 min after treatment, and a late and sustained phosphorylation that appeared at 6 h and lasted up to 24 h[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Western Blot Analysis[2]

Cell Line: RT4-D6P2T cells
Concentration: 250 µM
Incubation Time: 5 min, 45 min, 2 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h
Result: Induces biphasic MAPK phosphorylation.
In Vivo

Uridine triphosphate (UTP) (0.44-4.4 µg/kg; i.v.; once) reduces infarct size and improves rat heart function after myocardial infarct[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Male Wistar rats (250-300 g; 2-3 months) with myocardial infarction (MI)[3]
Dosage: 0.44 µg/kg 30 min before MI, and 4.4 µg/kg i.v. 24 h prior to MI.
Administration: i.v.; once
Result: Reduced infarct size and improves rat heart function after myocardial infarct.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
