Alpha-Ketoglutaric Acid Description
What is Alpha-Ketoglutaric Acid?
Alpha ketoglutaric acid is an important biomolecule and one of the important intermediates in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. It is a nitrogen transporter and a symbiotic substance in molecular oxidation. It plays an important role in the metabolism of microbial cells and is also an important precursor for the synthesis of various amino acids and proteins. And it can be used as a dietary supplement with broad application prospects.
Alpha ketoglutaric acid can be used as a nutritional enhancer and an ingredient in sports nutrition drinks; It can also be used as an organic intermediate, biochemical reagent, and supporting reagent for measuring liver function, as well as a physical enhancement supplement
Alpha ketoglutaric acid is a short chain carboxylic acid with multiple functions, which does not exhibit toxicity, and its aqueous solution has high stability. In living organisms, AKG is not only an important transitional product in the TCA cycle, but also a precursor of L-glutamate, L-glutamine, L-proline, and L-arginine.

Alpha-Ketoglutaric Acid Applications
AKG, also known as Alpha-Ketoglutaric Acid, has multiple important roles in human health, including promoting energy metabolism, antioxidant effects, maintaining bone health, immune regulation, neuroprotection, and more. Specifically, as follows:
- Energy metabolism promotion: Alpha ketoglutarate is a key intermediate product in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, which can accelerate the generation of energy in cells, provide sufficient power for various activities of the body, and enable the body to have better energy and endurance performance during exercise, daily labor, and other processes.
- Antioxidant effect: It can enhance the activity of intracellular antioxidant enzymes, effectively eliminate free radicals, reduce the damage of free radicals to cells, help delay cell aging, protect body tissues and organs from oxidative stress, and maintain the health status of the body.
- Bone health maintenance: Participate in the synthesis of collagen and regulation of calcium metabolism in bones, promote bone growth and repair, and have positive significance for bone development in children and adolescents, as well as prevention of osteoporosis in middle-aged and elderly people.
- Immune regulation: α – ketoglutaric acid can affect the activity and function of immune cells, enhance the immunity of the body, make the body more capable of resisting the invasion of external bacteria, and reduce the risk of infectious diseases.
- Neuroprotection: In the nervous system, alpha ketoglutarate helps maintain normal metabolism and function of nerve cells, protecting them from damage and potentially preventing neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.
