Effect of a 400-kilocalorie carbohydrate diet on human plasma uridine and hypoxanthine concentrations.
Seven healthy female volunteers were fed a 400-kcal carbohydrate diet for 4 days after eating a standardized diet for 3 days. Plasma uridine and hypoxanthine concentrations were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. After 4 days on the 400-kcal diet, the plasma uridine concentration decreased by 35% but the plasma hypoxanthine concentration remained stable.
