What is N-Acetyl carnosine?
Description
N-acetyl-L-Carnosine is a dipeptide and acetylated form of L-carnosine that has been found in heart and skeletal muscle and has antioxidant and anticataract activities. It reduces iron- and ascorbate-induced malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation in liposomes when used at concentrations of 10 and 20 mM. Topical administration of N-acetyl-L-carnosine (1% v/v) reduces cortical opacities in a canine model of age-related cataracts.
Chemical properties
