Apha Lipoic Acid CAS:1077-28-7 Manufacturer Supplier

Apha Lipoic Acid is a cyclic disulfide antioxidant that interconverts with its reduced dithiol form. It is an essential cofactor for decarboxylation reactions of the citric acid cycle, and acts as a general antioxidant. DL-α-lipoic acid can act as a direct radical scavenger, as a cofactor to regenerate reduced glutathione, and as a metal chelator.

Application and Effect

α-Lipoic acid has been used in in vitro lipoylation studies and in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC)-pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDHK) functional assay. It has also been used to investigate its antioxidative effect on developing cerebellum of rats exposed to arsenic during postnatal period.Lipoic acid(6,8-dimercaptooctanoic acid), a lipophilic endogenous disulfide that can be reduced to the dithiol dihydrolipoic acid, protects against free-radical-mediated injury both in vivo and in vitro.
