Product Information

• Name: 5,6-Diamino-1,3-dipropyluracil
• Synonyms: 5,6-Diamino-1,3-dipropyl-1H-pyrimidine-2,4-dione
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 5,6-Diamino-1,3-dipropyluracil (DAU) is a synthetic drug that acts as an adenosine receptor antagonist. DAU binds to the adenosine receptors in the brain and inhibits the binding of adenosine, which may result in an anti-congestive effect. DAU has been found to be a potent inhibitor of the A2A adenosine receptor at nanomolar concentrations. This inhibition may be due to its ability to form covalent bonds with the receptor or its affinity for or blocking of agonist binding sites on the receptor. It also has been shown to have affinity for dopamine receptors, although it is not yet known if this activity contributes to its anti-congestive effects.
