Guanosine 5'-diphosphate (GDP) sodium is a nucleoside diphosphate that activates adenosine 5'-triphosphate-sensitive K+ channel. Guanosine 5'-diphosphate sodium is a potential iron mobilizer, which prevents the hepcidin-ferroportin interaction and modulates the interleukin-6 (IL-6)/stat-3 pathway. Guanosine 5'-diphosphate sodium can be used in the research of inflammation, such as anemia of inflammation (AI)[1][2].
