DIHYDROLIPOIC ACID Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

γ-Lipoic Acid, is a metabolite of α-Lipoic Acid (L468730), which is a over-the-counter nutritional supplements, that has been used as antioxidant. It is also fat-metabolism stimulator, and thus used a "weight loss" and "energy" supplement.

Definition

ChEBI: A thio-fatty acid that is reduced form of lipoic acid. A potent antioxidant shown to directly destroy superoxide, hydroperoxy and hydroxyl radicals; also has neuroprotective and anti-tumour effects.

Biological Activity

Cell permeable: no', 'Primary Target
Scavenges hypochlorous acid, peroxyl, superoxide, hydroxyl, and nitric oxide radicals', 'Product does not compete with ATP.', 'Reversible: no

in vivo

Dihydrolipoic Acid (DHLA) treatment exerts preventive effects in LPS-induced sickness behavior rats. Dihydrolipoic Acid increases the expression of ERK, Nrf2, and HO-1 but decreases the ROS generation levels and reduces the expression of NLRP3, caspase-1, and IL-1β in LPS-induced sickness behavior rats. Dihydrolipoic Acid is a reduced form of α-lipoic acid (LA) that can decrease oxidative stress and act as a strong antioxidant[2]. Dihydrolipoic Acid treatment reverses the LPS-induced sickness behavior[2].

Animal Model:Adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (weight, 200-220?g)[2]
Dosage:15?mg/kg, 30?mg/kg, 60?mg/kg
Administration:Injected intraperitoneally daily
Result:Treatment with 30?mg/kg and 60?mg/kg improved the body weight gain as compared to the LPS group.
