Vitamin U

Description:

Vitamin U, chemically known as S-methylmethionine, is a compound that has garnered interest for its potential health benefits, particularly in gastrointestinal health. It is not a vitamin in the traditional sense but is often associated with the treatment of ulcers and promoting healing in the digestive tract. The substance is a derivative of the amino acid methionine and is characterized by its sulfur-containing structure. Vitamin U is water-soluble and is typically found in various plant sources, particularly in cabbage and other cruciferous vegetables. Its biological activity is thought to stem from its ability to stabilize cell membranes and promote the synthesis of certain proteins. While it has been studied for its therapeutic effects, particularly in relation to ulcer healing, more research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms and efficacy. As with any supplement, it is important to consult healthcare professionals before use, especially considering potential interactions with other medications or conditions.

L-Methionine-S-methyl sulfonium chloride

CAS: 1115-84-0

Methionine-S-methyl sulfonium chloride is a methionine analog that is used as a dietary supplement. It has been shown to inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins in animals, which may be due to its inhibition of arachidonic acid release. Methionine-S-methyl sulfonium chloride also inhibits UVB-induced erythema and uvb-induced reactions in animals. This drug is metabolized by the enzyme methionine adenosyltransferase, which converts it into S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). SAM is a methyl donor for DNA methylation and other methylation reactions. Methionine-S-methyl sulfonium chloride may have a physiological effect on plants through its effects on their metabolism, especially with respect to their growth rate and nutrient uptake.
