Uridine is a substance naturally produced by the liver and can be classified as a nucleoside. This means that it is a compound containing a nucleic acid with a pyrimidinyl group and bound to the sugar alcohol group. More precisely, uridine is a uridine, which is the main component of ribonucleic acid involved in protein synthesis in the body. Uracil is produced when it adheres to ribofuranose. This compound can be further added to various phosphate groups to form a trinucleotide (a factor involved in regulating metabolism). In addition, it binds between uracil and deoxyribose to form deoxyuridine, but this compound is rarely produced naturally in living organisms.
Uridine is a component of glycosides. This substance is easily soluble in water or soluble in dilute alcohol. It is a white needle-like powder and sometimes appears crystalline. It can usually be used for the treatment of rectangular red blood cell anemia, and can also be used in combination with other nucleosides and bases to treat liver or cerebrovascular diseases and cardiovascular diseases.
Uridine is more of a kind of medicine. In addition to the control and treatment of a variety of cardiovascular diseases, you can also know fluorine, uracil and deoxynucleoside, but also iodoside and bromoside, as well as some drugs such as fluoride and glycoside. The main production materials. Therefore, it can be seen that the application of this ingredient is also very extensive and very important.
Uridine also has the potential to treat many diseases. For example: Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, bipolar disorder, etc. Many clinical trials involving cancer patients have confirmed that nutritional supplements containing this compound can counteract the toxic effects of chemotherapy. In addition, there is some evidence that uridine can prevent cell damage and liver dysfunction.
The sources of uridine include tomatoes, beets, broccoli, meat, molasses and brewer’s yeast. It is also one of the components of human milk. Except for human milk and yeast, the human body cannot absorb this substance from the diet. Although it is good news for beer lovers, drinking a lot of beer increases uridine levels, while also increasing the amount of purines and uric acid, and may cause other diseases related to alcohol abuse.
