In vivo evidence that Inhibiting Uricase is Involved in the Biological Survival Response

Survival Response Mechanism

Foraging Increases locomotor activity and hyperactivity (59)
Increased endurance (60)
Increases Impulsivity (61)
Decrease anxiety in stressful situations (62)
Decrease Recent Memory (hippocampal)(63)
Fat Accumulation Increases Fat in the Liver (57, 64)
Hypertriglyceridemia (65)
Impaired Glucose Tolerance Stimulates Insulin Resistance (66)
Stimulates Gluconeogenesis (48)
Reduces Insulin Secretion (67)
Raises Blood Pressure Reduces nitric oxide (21)
Stimulates renal and local RAS
Stimulates aldosterone (68)
Stimulates endothelin (69)
Stimulates oxidative stress (17)
Stimulates COX-2 associated thromboxane (70)
Increases Renal Sodium Reabsorption (71)
Inflammation Systemic Inflammatory Markers (72)
Inflammasome activation (73)
Alterations in Microbiome/Leaky Gut (74)
