:α-Lipoic acid
Description:
α-Lipoic acid, also known as thioctic acid, is a naturally occurring compound that plays a crucial role in mitochondrial bioenergetics as a cofactor for several enzyme complexes involved in energy metabolism. It is a potent antioxidant, capable of scavenging free radicals and regenerating other antioxidants, such as vitamins C and E. The chemical structure of α-lipoic acid features a dithiolane ring, which contributes to its redox properties. It is soluble in both water and lipids, allowing it to exert effects in various biological environments. α-Lipoic acid is often studied for its potential therapeutic applications, including its role in managing diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders. Additionally, it has been investigated for its ability to improve insulin sensitivity and reduce oxidative stress. Due to its diverse biological functions, α-lipoic acid is available as a dietary supplement, although its efficacy and safety in various health conditions continue to be the subject of ongoing research.

CAS:<p>(R)-(+)-a-Lipoic acid is a naturally occurring compound with antioxidant properties in the body. It is found in high concentrations in the kidney, liver, and pancreas, and is an important cofactor for mitochondrial enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl CoA. (R)-(+)-a-Lipoic acid has been shown to be effective against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, oxidative injury caused by ischemia–reperfusion injury, diabetic neuropathy and other conditions. The exact mechanism of action of (R)-(+)-a-Lipoic acid is not known but it may be due to its ability to restore mitochondrial membrane potential or inhibit reactive oxygen species production. (R)-(+)-a-Lipoic acid has also been shown to reduce body mass index and glomerular filtration rate in mice.</p>Formula:C8H14O2S2Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:206.33 g/mol(R)-5-(1,2-Dithiolan-3-yl)pentanoic acid
