| Compound Description | Pyridoxal 5-phosphate monohydrate is a pyridinecarbaldehyde.Medicure's MC-1 drug is a cardio-protectant, designed to reduce the damage to the heart when arteries are blocked and when they are subsequently reopened after bypass surgery.Pyridoxal Phosphate is the active form of vitamin B6 and a coenzyme for many pyridoxal phosphate -dependent enzymes. PLP is involved in numerous enzymatic transamination, decarboxylation and deamination reactions; it is necessary for the synthesis of amino acids and amino acid metabolites, and for the synthesis and/or catabolism of certain neurotransmitters, including the conversion of glutamate into gamma-aminobutyric acid and levodopa into dopamine. PLP can be used as a dietary supplement in cases of vitamin B6 deficiency. Reduced levels of PLP in the brain can cause neurological dysfunction.PYRIDOXAL PHOSPHATE is a small molecule drug with a maximum clinical trial phase of III and has 1 investigational indication.This is the active form of VITAMIN B 6 serving as a coenzyme for synthesis of amino acids, neurotransmitters , sphingolipids, aminolevulinic acid. During transamination of amino acids, pyridoxal phosphate is transiently converted into pyridoxamine phosphate . |
