Croc, Crocetin: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Crocetin is a carotenoid pigment found in saffron (Crocus sativus) and has been studied for its potential anti-cancer properties. Research has shown that crocetin may have anti-tumor and anti-proliferative effects, inhibiting the growth of various types of cancer cells.
The mechanisms by which crocetin exerts its anti-cancer effects are not fully understood, but it is thought to involve:

• Inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis (cell death)
• Modulation of signaling pathways involved in cell growth and survival
• Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects
• Inhibition of angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels that feed cancer cells)

Crocetin is a LDH inhibitor.


AChE, acetylcholinesterase: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
AChE is an enzyme that rapidly hydrolyzes the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into choline and acetate, terminating cholinergic signals.
- In some cancers, studies have reported reduced AChE activity, which may contribute to an accumulation of acetylcholine.
- Lower levels or loss of AChE expression/activity have been associated with more aggressive tumor behavior and poor prognosis, possibly due to unchecked cholinergic signaling.

For AD (Alzheimer's), AChE inhibitors are used, to allow ACh, and ChAT to increase along with acetyl-CoA
-Natural AChE inhibitors: Ferulic Acid, Caffeic Acid, Rosmarinic Acid, Sage
-AChE inhibitors only temporarily relieve some of the disease’s cognitive symptoms and do not stop the patient’s cognitive loss
-adverse effects such as disorientation, falls, dizziness, and fatigue may occur with these medications and should be used only as recommended
