H-Pro-Ala-OH (CAS 6422-36-2)
QUICK LINKS
H-Pro-Ala-OH, an amino acid supplement derived from alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), exhibits a remarkable composition comprising three carbon-carbon double bonds. This unique structure of H-Pro-Ala-OH is thought to contribute to its potential in reducing inflammation by diminishing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Additionally, Pro-ala may combat inflammation by reducing the generation of reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, H-Pro-Ala-OH is believed to impart benefits to cardiovascular health by lowering LDL cholesterol levels while simultaneously elevating HDL cholesterol levels. A third notable attribute of H-Pro-Ala-OH involves its potential to alleviate oxidative stress. This is accomplished through the activation of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, consequently diminishing oxidative damage.
