METHODS FOR INCREASING CYTIDINE LEVELS IN VIVO AND TREATING CYTIDINE-DEPENDENT HUMAN DISEASES

摘要

Methods of treating certain neurological diseases using exogenous uridine or a uridine source alone as a precursor of endogenous cytidine, particularly in the human brain, are disclosed. Methods are also disclosed wherein exogenous uridine or a uridine source is combined either with drugs increasing uridine availability or with compounds that serve as a source of choline in phospholipid synthesis.
