Xanthine oxidoreductase activity is correlated with hepatic steatosis
Abstract The enzyme xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) catalyzes the synthesis of uric acid (UA) from hypoxanthine and xanthine, which are products of purine metabolism starting from ribose-5-phosphate. Several studies suggested a relationship between hyperuricemia and hepatic steatosis; however, few pre...
