Rheumatology, 2010 Uric acid (UA) is the end product of purine metabolism in humans due to the loss of uricase activity by various mutations of its gene during the Miocene epoch, which led to humans having higher UA levels than other mammals. Furthermore, 90% of UA filtered by the kidneys is reabsorbed, instead of being excreted.

Progress in research on uric acid metabolism pathway
Linchuang shenzangbing zazhi, 2019 Uric acid is a product of sputum metabolism, and its crease is caused by increase in uric acid production and a decrease in uric acid excretion. The main metabolic pathway of uric acid is present in the kidney, and secondly in the intestine; and the ...

Uric acid, an important screening tool to detect inborn errors of metabolism: a case series
BMC Research Notes, 2017 Background Uric acid is the metabolic end product of purine metabolism in humans. Altered serum and urine uric acid level (both above and below the reference ranges) is an indispensable marker in detecting rare inborn errors of metabolism.
