Uricase-Deficient Larval Zebrafish with Elevated Urate Levels Demonstrate Suppressed Acute Inflammatory Response to Monosodium Urate Crystals and Prolonged Crystal Persistence
Gout is caused by elevated serum urate leading to the deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals that can trigger episodes of acute inflammation. Humans are sensitive to developing gout because they lack a functional urate-metabolizing enzyme called uricase/urate oxidase (encoded by the UOX gene)...
