Biochem/physiol Actions

Uridine-5′-Triphosphate?(UTP) is a cytosolic nucleotide component of nucleic acids. It serves as a signaling molecule in the extracellular space. Uridine-5′-Triphosphate?(UTP) is involved in various pathophysiological responses in the nervous system.?UTP also plays a major role in the regeneration process.
