Action
Phospholipids + Multivitamins regulates membrane permeability and improves the exchange of substances between the intra- and extracellular space. It activates metabolic function and supports the energy balance of the liver. It restores enzyme functions and promotes detoxification of the liver. Neutral fats and cholesterol are transformed and led to their physiological oxidation. Liver cell generation is stimulated and the bile is stabilized.
The major active principle is Phospholipids. In fact, this refers to Cholinophosphatide, the decisive factor of which quantitatively and therapeutically is dilinoleoylphosphatidylcholine. Phospholipids form an essential element in the structure of cell membrane and cell organelles.
The functional significance of Phospholipids is based on their biphasic characteristic, which permits regulation of cell membrane penetration. They support cell-membrane functions: ion exchange, internal respiration and biological oxidation. They affect the fixation of respiratory enzymes in mitochondria and oxidative phosphorylation in the cell energy metabolism. It is known that structures on intercellular membranes and enzyme systems undergo pathological changes in synthesis meets the normal demand; in healthy people, hepatocytes contain adequate amount of Phospholipids. In liver disorders, the hepatic tissues suffers structural and functional damage. The biosynthesis of Phospholipids is hampered and its deficiency leads to impairment of cell membrane functions. The mitochondria (containing about 30% Phospholipids) are the most affected. Important metabolic process in particular, oxidative phosphorylation take place in fat metabolism which in turn lead to fatty infiltration of the liver.
Owing its pharmacological properties, essential Phospholipids normalises the mentioned impairments. The Phospholipids treats damaged liver, regenerates injured mitochondria, reactivates damaged enzyme system and in this way normalizes liver functions and strengthens its detoxicating role.
Pharmacokinetics: Animal experiments into the pharmacokinetics showed that >90% of the orally applied radiolabeled soya bean Phospholipids are less absorbed in the small intestine. Most of it is split by phospholipase A to 1-acyl-lysophosphatidylcholine, 50% of which is reacylated immediately into polyunsaturated phosphatidylcholine, still during the process of absorption in the intestinal mucosa.
This polyunsaturated phosphatidylcholine reaches the blood via the lymph pathway and from there, mainly bound to HDL, it passes in particular to the liver.
Tests into human pharmacokinetics were performed with a.o. radioactively labeled dilinoleolphosphatidylcholine (3H and 14C).
The choline moiety was 3H-labe;ed and the linoleic acid had the 14C-label. The maximum 3H concentration was achieved after 6-24 hrs and amounted to 19.9% of the dose.
The half-life for the choline component was 66 hrs.
The maximum 14C concentration was achieved after 4-12 hrs and amounted to 27.9% of the dose. The half-life for this component was 32 hrs.
In the faeces, 2% of the 3H and 4.5% of the 14C- label, and in the urine, 6% of the 3H and only minor amounts of the 14C- label were found.
These results show that both isotopes are absorbed to >90% in the intestine.
