| | Levomefolic Acid Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Levomefolic Acid is a natural, active form of folic acid used at the cellular level for DNA reproduction, the cysteine cycle and the regulation of homocysteine among other functions. It is a coenzymated form of folic acid. It has been proposed for treatment of cardiovascular disease. | | Mechanism | It is synthesized in the absorptive cells of the small intestine from polyglutamylated dietary folate. It is a methylated derivative of tetrahydrofolate. Levomefolic acid is generated by methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) from 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (MTHF) and used to recycle homocysteine back to methionine by methionine synthase (MS). | | Medical application | Levomefolic acid (5-MTHF) is the natural, active form of folic acid used at the cellular level for DNA reproduction, the cysteine cycle and the regulation of homocysteine among other functions. IC50 value: Target: Folate analogLevomefolic acid has been proposed for treatment of cardiovascular disease and advanced cancers such as breast and colorectal cancers. Levomefolic acid (5-MTHF) has the prominent antioxidant activity. A high dose of 5-MTHF or folic acid does not influence Natural killer (NK) cell function in vitro.
Preliminary research suggests that levomefolic acid (L-methylfolate) taken with a first-line antidepressant may provide an adjunctive antidepressant effect for individuals who do not respond or have only a partial therapeutic response to SSRI or SNRI medication,and might be a more cost-effective adjunctive agent than second-generation antipsychotics. | | Storage | Store lyophilized at -20ºC, keep desiccated.
In lyophilized form, the chemical is stable for 36 months.
In solution, store at -20ºC and use within 3 months to prevent loss of potency. Aliquot to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. | | Uses | A natural, active form of folic acid used at the cellular level for DNA reproduction, the cysteine cycle and the regulation of homocysteine among other functions. It is a coenzymated form of folic acid. It has been proposed for treatment of cardiovascular disease. | | Uses | As a natural, active form of folic acid, Levomefolic Acid can be used at the cellular level for DNA reproduction, the cysteine cycle and the regulation of homocysteine among other functions. It is a coenzymated form of folic acid and a more bioavailable alternative in dietary supple | | Definition | ChEBI: 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid is a tetrahydrofolic acid that is 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolic acid substituted by a methyl group at position 5. It has a role as a human metabolite. It is functionally related to a 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 5-methyltetrahydrofolate(2-). |
