L-Homocysteine
Amino Acid
L-Homocysteine is an amino acid that serves as a critical intermediate in the methionine metabolism pathway in mammals. It has been shown to induce the upregulation of Cathepsin V, which plays a significant role in mediating vascular endothelial inflammation associated with hyperhomocysteinaemia. This compound is essential for research into cardiovascular diseases and the molecular mechanisms underlying homocysteine-related pathology.
