Chemical Structure
2,8-Dihydroxyadenine
- CAS No.: 30377-37-8
- Formula:C5H5N5O2
- Molecular Weight:167.13
IUPAC Name: 6-amino-7,9-dihydro-2H-purine-2,8(3H)-dione
InChIKey: XFBOJHLYDJZYSP-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: O=C1NC2=C(NC(N2)=O)C(N)=N1
Biological Activity: 2,8-Dihydroxyadenine is an endogenous metabolite that forms crystals in urine, leading to kidney stone formation and crystal deposition in the kidney. 2,8-Dihydroxyadenine induces crystal-induced tubular injury, inflammation, and fibrosis through crystal deposition in renal tubules, where crystals are excreted in urine, internalized by tubular epithelial cells, and transported to the interstitium. 2,8-Dihydroxyadenine upregulates CD44 expression near crystals, TNF-α signaling through NF-κB, and mTORC1 signaling, while inducing actin stress fiber formation and cytoskeletal remodeling. 2,8-Dihydroxyadenine downregulates epithelial-mesenchymal transition pathways and oxidative phosphorylation, and induces changes affecting inflammation, metabolism, and cell cycle regulation. 2,8-Dihydroxyadenine can be used in research on kidney disease, adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency, and kidney stone disease[1][2][3][4][5][6].
