Francesco Attanasio et al. Protective Effects of L- and D-Carnosine on alpha-Crystallin Amyloid Fibril Formation: Implications for Cataract Disease. Biochemistry , 2009, 48 (27), pp 6522%u20136531 ...

a product of N-acetyl L-carnosine, can pass through the aqueous and lipid components of the eye, preventing DNA strand breaks caused by UV damage. Cataracts form with the cross-linking of lens ...

Horowitz’s skepticism stems in part from prior natural compounds that have been falsely marketed as cures for cataracts, such as the antioxidant carnosine (or N-acetylcarnosine). “Carnosine is ...

Carnosine is acting as the de-linker in the ... showed no value of antioxidants in retarding the progress of cataract. It is important to follow research in this area, but no definitive support ...

Cataracts develop when the main structural protein in the lens, alpha-crystallin, forms abnormal clumps. The clumps make the lens cloudy and impair vision. Previous studies hinted that carnosine ...

There are several studies that show a pair of amino acids can stop and even reverse cataracts. Carnosine is a natural dipeptide (protein) that is found abundantly in muscles and brain. It has ...

could exert antioxidant effects that counteract the inflammation and oxidative stress implicated in cataract development. Furthermore, eye drops containing acetyl-carnosine have shown promise in ...

Carnosine is a molecule made up of two amino acids, alanine and histadine. Carnosine is classified as a nonessential dipeptide and is primarily found in the muscles and brain of animals. Carnosine ...

Carnosine is a dipeptide, derived from beta-alanine and histidine, that is abundantly found in muscle and brain tissues and provides a range of health advantages. In recent years, there has been a ...

The findings make carnosine a promising candidate for treating people with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes and for preventing diabetes onset, particularly because of carnosine's additional ...
