Description

Pigment Blue 63 is a colorant that belongs to the group of hydroxyl compounds. It is a synthetic pigment that has been shown to cause allergic symptoms and glomerular filtration rate in animal studies. Pigment Blue 63 may have an effect on the cb2 receptor, which is found in cells of the immune system. There is also evidence that it can bind to protocatechuic acid, which has been linked with cardiovascular disease and diabetes. The effects of Pigment Blue 63 are related to its ability to inhibit polymerization, which causes skeletal changes and symptoms of inflammation. This agent may also be involved in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, congestive heart failure, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
