Description
5'-Guanylic acid disodium salt is the disodium salt form of 5'-Guanylic acid (HY-N5134). 5'-Guanylic acid disodium salt is a purine nucleotide that participates in physiological processes such as energy metabolism, signal transduction, and gene expression regulation. 5'-Guanylic acid disodium salt regulates the expression of genes related to fatty acid metabolism. 5'-Guanylic acid disodium salt is the weak agonist for ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluR), reduces the activity of the glutamatergic system and exhibits neuroprotective effect. 5'-Guanylic acid disodium salt also causes neuronal cell death at high concentrations[1][2][3]
