Cytochrome C is a water-soluble protein encoded by a nuclear gene, with a molecular weight of 12 ~ 13kDa, and is an electron carrier in the process of biological oxidation. It is located outside the inner membrane of mitochondria, between respiratory chain complex Ⅲ and Ⅳ, and is involved in the process of cell respiration. During hypoxia, cytochrome C can enter cells and mitochondria to enhance cell oxidation and improve oxygen utilization.

Usage
1. Cell respiration activating agents. It has a rapid enzymatic effect on the oxidation and reduction process of cells in tissues. It is used for tissue hypoxia caused by various reasons in first aid or auxiliary treatment. It also has a certain therapeutic effect on the decrease of white blood cells caused by anticancer drugs, circulation disorders of limbs, liver diseases and nephritis.
2. It is suitable for treating a series of symptoms caused by brain hypoxia, myocardial hypoxia and other tissue hypoxia. This product can also promote the regeneration of damaged liver cells, repair the hematopoietic function of bone marrow, and significantly reduce the leukopenia caused by radiotherapy.
