Carnosine in health and disease [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, 2018
AbstractCarnosine was originally discovered in skeletal muscle, where it exists in larger amounts than in other tissues. The majority of research into the physiological roles of carnosine have been conducted on skeletal muscle. Given this and the potential for muscle carnosine content to be increased with supplementation, there is now a large body of ...

CARNOSINE-CONTAINING LIPOSOMES: PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES

open access: yesТонкие химические технологии, 2016
Carnosine is a natural dipeptide antioxidant. It is proved that it protects human’s cells from oxidative stress. However, it has a short lifetime in a human organism due to the carnosinase activity.

Can the Skeletal Muscle Carnosine Response to Beta-Alanine Supplementation Be Optimized?

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2019
Carnosine is an abundant histidine-containing dipeptide in human skeletal muscle and formed by beta-alanine and L-histidine. It performs various physiological roles during exercise and has attracted strong interest in recent years with numerous ...

Carnosine and cancer: a perspective [PDF]

open access: yesAmino Acids, 2012
The application of carnosine in medicine has been discussed since several years, but many claims of therapeutic effects have not been substantiated by rigorous experimental examination. In the present perspective, a possible use of carnosine as an anti-neoplastic therapeutic, especially for the treatment of malignant brain tumours such as glioblastoma ...

Evaluation of supplementary carnosine accumulation and distribution: an initial analysis of participants in the Nucleophilic Defense Against PM Toxicity (NEAT) clinical trial

open access: yesAmino Acids
Carnosine is an endogenous dipeptide that buffers intracellular pH and quenches toxic products of lipid peroxidation. Used as a dietary supplement, it also supports exercise endurance.

Differences in muscle histidine‐containing dipeptides in broilers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: Poultry meat has high levels of histidine-containing dipeptides (HCD) and consumption of meat rich in HCD may elicit certain health benefits. The aim of this work was to compare the HCD content (anserine and carnosine) in the breast and thigh

Neutrophil‐Driven Cascade‐Targeted Nanocarriers Restore Mitochondrial Homeostasis to Ameliorate Renal Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A neutrophil‐mediated dual‐targeting liposome (NKN‐LNP) is developed to treat renal ischemia–reperfusion injury. The system enables spatiotemporally controlled delivery of NMN to injured tubules via MMP‐2/9 activation and KIM1 recognition, restoring mitochondrial function through NAD+‐SIRT3 signaling and preventing the transition from acute kidney ...

PEGylation renders carnosine resistant to hydrolysis by serum carnosinase and increases renal carnosine levels

open access: yesAmino Acids
Carnosine’s protective effect in rodent models of glycoxidative stress have provided a rational for translation of these findings in therapeutic concepts in patient with diabetic kidney disease.
