Anti-Cancer Effects of Carnosine—A Dipeptide Molecule

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Background: Carnosine is a dipeptide molecule (β-alanyl-l-histidine) with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-glycation, and chelating properties. It is used in exercise physiology as a food supplement to increase performance; however, in vitro evidence

Effect of histidine and carnosine on haemoglobin recovery in anaemia induced-kidney damage and iron-loading mouse models [PDF]

open access: yesAmino Acids
Histidine and carnosine can form complexes with divalent metal ions such as Fe2+, potentially providing stability to intracellular labile iron.

An update on carnosine and anserine research [PDF]

open access: bronzeAmino Acids, 2019
Carnosine belongs to a family of histidyl dipeptides, consisting of l-histidine and beta-alanine. It is more prevalent in the mammalian and human tissues, whereas its analogues such as anserine, which is methylated at the Nπ of imidazole, is present in birds and fish and balenine, methylated at the Nτ of histidine, is largely present in marine mammals ...

Carnosine and Beta-Alanine Supplementation in Human Medicine: Narrative Review and Critical Assessment

open access: yesNutrients, 2023
The dipeptide carnosine is a physiologically important molecule in the human body, commonly found in skeletal muscle and brain tissue. Beta-alanine is a limiting precursor of carnosine and is among the most used sports supplements for improving athletic ...

Thermodynamic and voltammetric study on carnosine and ferrocenyl-carnosine

open access: yesDalton Transactions, 2023
An electroactive carnosine derivative (ferrocenyl-carnosine, FcCAR (L)) was synthesized and its complexing and sensing properties were evaluated; it was found to be promising for the electrochemical detection of Hg2+and Pb2+in an aqueous environment.

Carnosine supplementation improves glucose control in adults with pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes: a randomised controlled trial

open access: yesmedRxiv, 2023
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality globally. Carnosine, a naturally occurring dipeptide, has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-glycating effects, with preliminary evidence suggesting it may improve important chronic

Characterization of Carnosine Effect on Human Microglial Cells under Basal Conditions

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
The activity of microglia is fundamental for the regulation of numerous physiological processes including brain development, synaptic plasticity, and neurogenesis, and its deviation from homeostasis can lead to pathological conditions, including numerous
