Description
T
CDP Choline is a precursor of phosphatidylcholine. As a type of phospholipid, phosphatidylcholine is an important
component of cell membranes. When taken orally, Citicoline(CDP Choline) is metabolized to yield the free nucleotide,
uridine and choline. Uridine and choline cross the blood-brain barrier,become incorporated into brain membrane
phospholipids and increase the production of neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, including the synthesis of
acetylcholine, noradrenaline and dopamine. In the brain, Citicoline(CDP Choline) stabilizes the cell membranes and inhibits
the formation of cytotoxic free fatty acids.
Application&Function
Citicoline (CDP-choline) is an essential intermediate in the synthesis of the major phospholipid of the cell membranes,
phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho). It increases plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone levels and potentiates serum thyrotrophin
(TSH) levels by activating the central cholinergic system.

Citicoline Sodium is used to treat age-related memory loss, cerebrovascular diseases such as stroke, dementia, as
well as head trauma. Research has shown that it increases a chemical called phosphatidylcholine which is important
for brain function. Citicoline might also decrease brain tissue damage when the brain is injured. Citicoline Sodium is
also said to help with weight management when used as a dietary supplement.
