AKG Powder

What Is AKG?

AKG Powder, the full name of which is α-ketoglutarate, is a naturally occurring molecule in the human body that participates in a variety of metabolic processes, especially energy production and amino acid metabolism. It also participates in the regulation of a series of important biological processes. It has a profound impact on cell growth, differentiation, aging and death by affecting metabolic pathways within cells. It is a key intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, which helps produce cellular energy and has a variety of health benefits, such as increasing energy levels, promoting muscle synthesis and repair, and anti-oxidation.

Function

Energy production: It is an important intermediate product of the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle), which is a key process for cellular respiration to produce energy. Its participation helps cells to produce energy efficiently.

Metabolic regulation: It participates in multiple metabolic pathways, including amino acid metabolism, fatty acid oxidation, and nucleic acid synthesis. It plays an important role in maintaining the balance and normal function of these metabolic processes.

Cell signaling: It may participate in the signaling pathways within cells and is related to processes such as cell growth, differentiation, and stress response.

Oxidative stress defense: It has certain antioxidant properties and may help to reduce the damage to cells caused by oxidative stress.

Nervous system function: It may also play an important role in the nervous system and is related to neurotransmission, cognitive function, and neuroprotection.

Mitochondrial function support: It promotes the vitality and function of mitochondria, balances metabolic activities within mitochondria, effectively responds to oxidative stress challenges, and enhances the resistance and adaptability of cells.

Effects on mitochondria

1. It can promote the biosynthesis and function of mitochondria. Mitochondria are the "energy factories" in cells. AKG helps mitochondria produce energy.

2. It can also regulate mitochondrial metabolism and oxidative stress response. It can help maintain the normal function of mitochondria, reduce oxidative damage, and improve cell adaptability and stress resistance.

3. It may be related to the autophagy process of mitochondria, which helps to remove damaged or dysfunctional mitochondria and ensure the quality and function of mitochondria.

Antioxidant mechanism

Directly remove free radicals

Can react with free radicals and convert free radicals into stable molecules by providing or accepting electrons, thereby reducing the number of free radicals in cells and reducing the level of oxidative stress.

Enhance antioxidant enzyme activity

AKG can enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes in cells, such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase. It can catalyze the decomposition reaction of free radicals, thereby reducing the damage of free radicals to cells.

Promote the synthesis of antioxidant substances

Promote the synthesis of antioxidant substances in cells, such as glutathione (GSH). Glutathione is an important antioxidant that can bind to free radicals to protect cells from oxidative stress.

Protect DNA

By reducing DNA oxidative damage, it helps maintain gene integrity and reduce the incidence of aging-related diseases.

Improve cell metabolism

By reducing the generation of free radicals in mitochondria, protecting mitochondrial membranes and mitochondrial DNA, and helping to maintain mitochondrial health, it improves cell metabolism.

Strengthen the immune system

It can reduce oxidative damage to immune cells and improve the immune system's response ability, thereby enhancing the body's disease resistance and self-repair capabilities.
