Cytidine is a substrate of the uridine-cytidine kinase and is a part nucleic acids. It can serve as a substrate for the salvage pathway of pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis, as a precursor of the cytidine triphosphate (CTP) needed in the phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) biosynthetic pathway. Cytidine was also used under the brand name posilent in Germany for the treatment of muscular, accommodative, and nervous eye disorders.

In the proliferating normal human T lymphocytes similar patterns of incorporation of [14C]uridine were observed in the presence of the physiological concentration of cytidine and after addition of 2 microM of cytidine. In contrast, in the MOLT-3 cells after addition of 2 microM of cytidine the proportion of CTP synthesized by conversion of UTP into CTP was substantially decreased, whereas the salvage of cytidine was proportionally increased. It was concluded that the reutilization of uridine is a preferred route in the synthesis of CTP for MOLT-3 cells at physiological concentrations of uridine and cytidine, whereas in proliferating normal human T lymphocytes CTP is largely synthesized through reutilization of cytidine. This difference in salvage of pyrimidine ribonucleosides may be exploited for selective chemotherapy.
