In laboratory studies, ATP is associated with research in areas such as:
- increasing cellular energy capacity,
- support for muscle strength and regeneration,
- research into mitochondrial disorders,
- modulation of smooth muscle contractility,
- impact on ATP-sensitive pathways in the cardiovascular system.

What is ATP (adenosine triphosphate)?
ATP is an essential nucleotide that serves as the main energy carrier in cells. It is produced in mitochondria through oxidative phosphorylation and is involved in virtually all forms of cellular work, including protein synthesis, ion transport, and muscle contraction.
How ATP works in injectable form
Injected ATP can be the subject of research in the field of acute energy replenishment in exhaustion, tissue perfusion disorders or in models of cardiac dysfunction. Unlike endogenous ATP, which is rapidly consumed in cells, injected ATP can also act peripherally as a signaling molecule affecting, for example, purinergic receptors.
Effects studied
-
Energy support: in acute or experimental energy depletion of tissues.
