Alpha-Lipoic acid

About Alpha-Lipoic acid
Naturally occurring dithiol compound , antioxidant, Agent for neuropathies.
Mechanism of Action of Alpha-Lipoic acid
Alpha-lipoic acid and its reduced metabolite, Dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA), form a redox couple and may scavenge a wide range of reactive oxygen species. Alpha-lipoic acid has been found to decrease urinary isoprostanes, O-LDL and plasma protein carbonyls, markers of oxidative stress. Further, alpha-lipoic acid and its redox couple DHLA have been found to have antioxidant activity in aqueous, as well as in lipophilic regions, and in extra cellular and intracellular environments. Alpha-lipoic acid participates in the recycling of other important biologic antioxidants, such as vitamins E and C, Ubiquinone and glutathione.
Both alpha-lipoic acid and DHLA can scavenge hydroxyl radicals, the nitric oxide radical, peroxynitrite, hydrogen peroxide and hypochlorite. Alpha-lipoic acid may scavenge singlet oxygen, and DHLA may scavenge super oxide and peroxyl reactive oxygen species.
Pharmacokinets of Alpha-Lipoic acid
Absorption: Alpha-lipoic acid is absorbed from the small intestine. The natural R-entantiomer is more readily absorbed than the L-entantiomer and is the more active form.
Distribution:It is distributed to the liver via the portal circulation and to various tissues in the body via the systemic circulation. . Alpha-lipoic acid readily crosses the blood-brain barrier. It is found, after its distribution to the various body tissues, intracellularly, intramitochondrialy and extracellularly.Metabolism: Alpha-lipoic acid is metabolized to its reduced form, dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA), by mitochondrial lipoamide dehydrogenase enzyme. DHLA, together with lipoic acid, form a redox couple. It is also metabolized to lipoamide, which functions as the lipoic acid cofactor in the multienzyme complexes that catalyze the oxidative decarboxylations of pyruvate and alpha-ketoglutarate. Alpha-lipoic acid may be metabolized to dithiol octanoic acid, which can undergo catabolism.

Eicosapentaenoic Acid

About Eicosapentaenoic Acid
An omega-3 fatty acid, Essential fatty acid, dietary supplement, Anti atherosclerotic.
Mechanism of Action of Eicosapentaenoic Acid
Eicosapentaenoic acid is an omega-3 fatty acid. It is found with Docosapentaenoic acid. Omega-3 fatty acids are of polyunsaturated fatty acids that derives from food. They help to lower triglycerides and cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol (the Good cholesterol) and thus improves lipid profile. Omega 3 fatty acids may also act as an anticoagulant to prevent blood clotting. They have anti-inflammatory actions and also lower high blood pressure. The incorporation of Omega-3 fatty acids in the membranes of the cells increases the physicochemical stability and functional integrity. It also makes the cells less susceptible to oxidative damage and also decreases the formation of lipid peroxidases. They protect from cardiovascular disorders and may also reduce the risks and symptoms for other disorders including diabetes, dementia, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, stroke, inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, mental decline, and some cancers. They aid in proper functioning of central nervous system.
Hypolipidaemic action: It produces a reduction in plasma triglycerides by reducing bad cholesterol or very low density lipoproteins.
Antiinflammatory action: Omega - 3 fatty acids are long chain poly unsaturated fatty acids.They compete with arachidonic acid for cyclo-oxygenase and lipoxygenase They inhibits inflammatory mediators by inhibiting leukotriene synthesis pathway.
Antithrombotic effect: They promote vasodilatation, a reduction in platelet aggregation, increased bleeding time and decreased platelet counts
