Introduction Uric acid and edaravone might exert a neuroprotective effect in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) by reducing oxidative stress. We analyzed whether the treatment effect of edaravone is pronounced in patients whose uric acid level increased

Hyperuricemia causes pancreatic β-cell death and dysfunction through NF-κB signaling pathway. [PDF]
Accumulating clinical evidence suggests that hyperuricemia is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. However, it is still unclear whether elevated levels of uric acid can cause direct injury of pancreatic β-cells.

Uric acid enhances longevity and endurance and protects the brain against ischemia [PDF]
Among mammals, there is a positive correlation between serum uric acid (UA) levels and life span. Humans have high levels of UA because they lack a functional urate oxidase (UOX) enzyme that is present in shorter lived mammals.

Correlation of Serum Uric Acid and Serum Uric Acid/Creatinine Ratio Levels with Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes in Late Pregnancy [PDF]
Background The disorder of serum uric acid metabolism during pregnancy is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, while few studies have analyzed and compared the correlation of serum uric acid and serum uric acid/creatinine ratio levels with adverse

Optical monitoring of hemodialysis using noninvasive measurement of uric acid in the dialysate
The aim of this study was to present a methodology for predicting changes in uric acid concentrations in the blood of chronically hemodialyzed patients based on an optical measurement of the intensity of selected wavelengths in the dialysate.

Lesinurad, a novel, oral compound for gout, acts to decrease serum uric acid through inhibition of urate transporters in the kidney. [PDF]
BackgroundExcess body burden of uric acid promotes gout. Diminished renal clearance of uric acid causes hyperuricemia in most patients with gout, and the renal urate transporter (URAT)1 is important for regulation of serum uric acid (sUA) levels.
