Urats: what is it?

Urates are crystalline deposits formed from uric acid salts. In other words, they are products of the exchange of nucleic nucleotide acids.

In the human body, they are formed when purine nucleoproteins break down into the nuclease form. This leads to the release of uric or xanthunic acid, which upon oxidation is converted into its salts.

Why are urates formed? Normally, these salts do not accumulate in humans due to the functioning of the normal functioning of the excretory system, due to which all toxins are eliminated during the removal of these substances from the body

Urates are salts of uric acid that are formed in the body as breakdown products of purine nucleotides. The accumulation of urates in the body occurs under conditions of hyperuricemia (increased levels of urates in the blood) with Parkinson's disease, gout, pseudogout, metabolic syndrome, blood cancer, and renal failure.

Urates, like other metabolic wastes, must be excreted from the body. However, their accumulation can lead to the development of various diseases, such as gout and nephritis. In gout, urates are deposited on the joints and cause inflammation and pain. Nephritis is also associated with elevated urate levels and can lead to kidney damage.
