L-ALPHA-PHOSPHATIDYLSERINES, BRAIN, PORCINE

Uses

Glycerophospholipids act as regulators of various enzyme activities, and can be used as biological markers to indicate pathological states.

Biological Activity

Phosphatidylserine is a lipid. It helps to increase the cognitive performance of rats and humans, having different levels of age-dependent memory problems or probable Alzheimer disease. It has the ability to block degeneration of the cholinergic neuronal population of the basal forebrain of aged rats. 90% of the phosphatidylserine decarboxylase activity is linked with mitochondria.
