Possible Role of Nucleotidases in Subcutaneous Calcification.
Abstract
The calcium complexes of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides were evaluated in terms of their ability to initiate subcutaneous calcification in vivo. Of the calcium-nucleotide complexes tested, CaATP was most potent. CaTTP and CaGTP were considerably less effective than CaATP, and CaCTP, CaUTP and CaITP were ineffective. These data imply a specificity for CaATP in this phenomenon. (Author)
