DL-Thioctic Acid is a hydrogen transferrin cofactor.
Antioxidant and coenzyme needed for the activity of enzyme complexes such as those of pyruvate dehydrogenase and glycine decarboxylase. Exogenous thioctic acid is reduced intracellularly by two or more enzymes. The reduced form then influences a number of cell processes by direct radical scavenging, recycling of other antioxidants, increasing glutathione synthesis, and modulating transcription factor activity particularly that of NF-κB. Decreases the phagocytosis of myelin by macrophages.
Soluble in fat solvents, methanol (50 mg/ml - clear pale yellow solution), ethanol(50 mg/ml - clear solution); practically insoluble in water.
