It is an essential component in the synthesis of various amino acids in the body. In laboratory studies, 1% concentration of alpha-Ketoglutaric acid at 12 weeks has been shown to reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the skin.

Alpha-Ketoglutaric acid (a-KG) is an essential component in the synthesis of various amino acids in the body.

In laboratory research, 1% concentration of alpha-Ketoglutaric acid at 12 weeks had the following effects:

1. a-Ketoglutarate (a-KG) Stimulated Procollagen Production in Cultured Human Dermal Fibroblasts (a-KG Stimulates Procollagen Synthesis in Fibroblast)

2. a-Ketoglutarate (a-KG) Enhanced Prolidase Activity in Cultured Human Dermal Fibroblasts ( a-KG can help enhance the function of Prolidase, which is an important part of collagen synthesis).

3. Decreased UVB-Induced Wrinkle Formation Following Long-Term Topical Application of a-KG on the Dorsal Skin of Hairless Mice (Long-term use of a-KG at 12 weeks can help reduce wrinkles. caused by UVB stimulation)

Compared with the use of a-KG with Retinoic Acid when UV light is applied to the skin to stimulate the appearance of wrinkles, it was found that a-KG can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
