Description

Choline Alfoscerate injections Pharmacodynamics
Choline alphoscerate is a cholinomimetic of central action with predominant influence on the central nervous system.
The drug contains 40.5% of choline, which is released from the compound in the brain; choline is involved in the biosynthesis of acetylcholine (one of the main mediators of nerve excitation). Alphoscerate is biotransformed to glycerophosphate, which is a precursor of phospholipids.
Acetylcholine has a positive effect on nerve impulse transmission, and glycerophosphate participates in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (a membrane phospholipid), resulting in improved membrane elasticity and receptor function.
Choline alphoscerate enhances metabolic processes and activates structures of the reticular formation of the brain.
It has a preventive and corrective effect on factors of involutional psychoorganic syndrome, such as changes in the phospholipid composition of neuronal membranes and decreased cholinergic activity.
Pharmacodynamic studies have shown that choline alphoscerate acts on synaptic, including cholinergic transmission of nerve impulse (neurotransmission), neuronal membrane plasticity and receptor function.
