PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacological. The active ingredient glucosamine sulfate is a salt of the amino monosaccharide glucosamine, which is present in the human body under physiological conditions and is used together with sulfates for the biosynthesis of hyaluronic acid in synovial fluid and glycosaminoglycans of the main substance of articular cartilage. Thus, the mechanism of action of glucosamine sulfate is to stimulate the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans and articular proteoglycans. In addition, glucosamine has an anti-inflammatory effect and inhibits the process of destruction of articular cartilage, mainly due to the manifestation of its own metabolic properties, the ability to suppress the activity of interleukin 1 (IL-1), which, on the one hand, affects the symptoms of osteoarthritis, and on the other hand, delays structural damage. joints, as evidenced by data from long-term clinical studies. According to initial in vitro and in vivo studies, exogenous administration of glucosamine sulfate stimulates proteoglycan biosynthesis, which is insufficient in osteoarthritis, promotes the fixation of sulfur ions during glycosaminoglycan synthesis, and improves trophic articular cartilage.
