Xanthine

Description:

Xanthine is a purine base that is an intermediate in the metabolism of purines and is found in various biological systems. It is a white, crystalline compound with the molecular formula C₈H₄N₄O₂. Xanthine is soluble in water and exhibits a slightly bitter taste. It plays a crucial role in the biochemical pathways of nucleic acid metabolism, particularly in the degradation of adenine and guanine. In humans, xanthine is produced from hypoxanthine through the action of the enzyme xanthine oxidase, and it can further be oxidized to uric acid. Elevated levels of xanthine in the body can lead to health issues, including xanthinuria, a rare genetic disorder. Xanthine is also of interest in pharmacology, as it can act as a stimulant and has been studied for its potential effects on various physiological processes. Its CAS number is 69-89-6, which uniquely identifies this compound in chemical databases.

Xanthine

CAS: 69-89-6

Xanthine is a reactive, oxidized form of purine. It is found in the human body as a product of xanthine oxidase (XO) metabolism of xanthine and hypoxanthine. Xanthine is known to have antioxidant properties and has been shown to inhibit the activity of xanthine oxidase in vitro. Xanthine, when combined with other anticancer drugs such as doxorubicin, can be used as an anticancer agent. This drug has been shown to cause oxidative injury in humans and animal models at physiological levels.
