Taurine 7

Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) is an enigmatic compound abounding in animal tissues. it's current at particularly excessive concentrations in all electrically excitable tissues reminiscent of mind, sensory organs, middle, and muscle, and in definite endocrine glands. a few of its physiological features are already proven, for instance as a vital nutrient in the course of improvement and as a neuromodulator or osmolyte, however the mobile mechanisms are nonetheless more often than not an issue of conjecture.

Complex interactions between cellular and plasma-derived components serve to initiate, propagate and regulate the inflammatory response. Shortly after a physiological insult in which disruption of the vasculature occurs, platelets aggregate to the site of injury. Via interactions between the platelets, exposed collagen and endothelial cells, factors are secreted which serve to propagate numerous functions. Vasoconstriction at the site of injury initially serves to decrease the blood flow, thus minimalizing the amount of blood loss at the site of injury.
