Description

3-Methylcytidine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pyrimidine nucleosides. These are compounds comprising a pyrimidine base attached to a ribosyl or deoxyribosyl moiety. 3-Methylcytidine is a potential urinary biomarker of whole grain intake (PMID: 27805021). 3-Methylcytidine has been identified in the human placenta (PMID: 32033212). 3-Methylcytidine, a urinary nucleoside, can be used as a biomarker of four different types of cancer: lung cancer, gastric cancer, colon cancer, and breast cancer[1].
