1. A short history of tyrosine
Tyrosine (L-tyrosine, Tyr) is an important nutritional essential amino acid, which plays an important role in the metabolism, growth and development of humans and animals, and is widely used in medicine, food, feed and chemical industries. It is often used as a nutritional supplement for patients with phenylketonuria, and as a raw material for the preparation of pharmaceutical and chemical products such as polypeptide hormones, antibiotics, L-dopa, melanin, p-hydroxycinnamic acid, and p-hydroxystyrene.
2. The important role of tyrosine in the human body
Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid. It is a very important component of protein in the body and a raw material for various products in the body. It plays an important role in human health.
1. Promote metabolism, prevent hyperthyroidism and increase appetite
Tyrosine can be converted into a variety of physiological substances through different metabolic pathways in the body-can produce a variety of neurotransmitters. These substances are closely related to the control of nerve conduction and metabolic regulation. In particular, tyrosine is also an important component of thyroxine, which is used in medicine to treat hyperthyroidism.
The Levi's and Missouri Dale Agricultural Experiment Station in the United States found that tyrosine and zinc deficiency can increase appetite, while high tyrosine content in the body can reduce appetite.
2. Soothe the nerves, antidepressant, stabilize mood, Alzheimer's disease and other diseases
Tyrosine has an important relationship with the transmission of neurons.
L-tyrosine is transformed from L-phenylalanine. Since tyrosine is a precursor substance of the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and epinephrine (both of which are hormones related to emotional stress), the lack of Tyrosine will promote the lack of these substances in the brain, which will cause depression and emotional depression, as well as some psychological diseases. Therefore, tyrosine can relieve environmental, psychological and physical stress, and is often used to treat depression and hypothyroidism. It also helps cells remain young for a long time and improves the body's immunity.
Studies have shown that tyrosine can effectively help patients with depression, make them feel happy, suppress appetite, and reduce body fat. Some preliminary studies indicate that levodopa, which is produced from tyrosine, can help patients with Alzheimer's disease (Parkinson's disease).
3. Slow down heart rate, regulate blood pressure; improve body endurance
4. It is related to the formation of pigment, and it will benefit albinism when it is lacking
Vitiligo patients can change the melanin and dullness on the skin by eating foods containing tyrosine, relieve the symptoms of vitiligo, and resist ultraviolet rays that are harmful to the human body.
3. The main application of tyrosine
1. Amino acid drugs
As the raw material of amino acid infusion and amino acid compound preparation.
2. Nutritional supplements, food additives
3. Daily cosmetics - inhibit melanin
4. Biochemical reagents, raw materials
5. Other functions
It can also be used as a food for the elderly, children and plant foliar nutrients.
