About L-Alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine(Alpha-GPC)
L-Alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine is one of the products of phospholipid metabolism in the body and is also a biosynthesis precursor of the important neurotransmitter acetylcholine. The distribution of glycerophosphocholine is less in plants. Pure GPC is white powder, strong polarity, soluble in polar solvents such as water, methanol and ethanol. It is insoluble in ethyl acetate and n-hexane.
In vivo, the most important physiological function of L-Alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine is to cross the lood brain barrier and provide the necessary choline for the biosynthesis of acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine (PC). L-Alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine is an important neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, helping the brain to complete learning, memory and cognitive activities, and to control light sleep and motor activity.
L-Alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine has the ability to stimulate the secretion of growth hormone secreting factors, thereby promoting the body’s growth. It can promote the formation of phosphoinositide in the brain and increase the amount of phospholipid synthesis in the brain, providing more phospholipid compounds for signaling in the central nervous system. Increasing the amount of synthetic phosphatidylcholine in the body helps to resist cell membrane damage and peripheral nerve function decline caused by aging, and good acetylcholine and phospholipid levels contribute to the health of cerebrovascular.
