Application
Cytidine 5′-diphosphocholine (CDP-choline) is generated by choline-phosphate cytidylyltransferase EC 2.7.7.15 in support of the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine. CDP-choline is being used in studies of its affects on neurorecovery.
Cytidine 5′-diphosphocholine sodium salt hydrate has been used as a component of the mixture during the ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) assay in mouse primary pancreatic acinar cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cytidine 5′-diphosphocholine (CDP-choline) is an endogenous compound that plays an important role in the synthesis of phospholipids in the cell membrane. It acts as a choline donor for the biosynthesis of acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine, a neuronal membrane phospholipid. CDP-choline enhances brain metabolism and influences the levels of various neurotransmitters including dopamine, epinephrine, and acetylcholine. It has been studied as a neuroprotectant after cerebral ischemia. CDP-choline is observed to exhibit therapeutic effects against cognitive impairment arising from multiple causes, cerebral vascular diseases, after-head trauma, and Alzheimer′s disease.

This study was designed to test the effects of intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) administered CDP-choline (cytidine-5'-diphosphate-choline; citicoline) and its metabolites in rat models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. The i.c.v. administration of CDP-choline (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 µmol) produced a dose and

The increase in circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) is associated with a better outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke. CDP-choline (citicoline) increases brain plasticity after experimental stroke. Therefore, we study if citicoline treatment could increase the EPC concentration after

Several studies suggest that low levels of hepatic phosphatidylcholine (PC) play a role in the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). CTP: phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase (CT) is the key regulatory enzyme in the CDP-choline pathway for PC biosynthesis. Liver-specific elimination of CTα
