N-acetyl Carnosine

N-Acetyl-L-carnosine, or N-Acetylcarnosine (abbreviated NAC) is a dipeptide. It is similar to carnosine but more resistant to carnosinase degradation thanks to the addition of an acetyl group.

Carnosine (L-Carnosine), the scientific name β-alanyl-L-histidine, is a dipeptide composed of β-alanine and L-histidine, a crystalline solid. Carnosine is not only a nutrient, but also can promote cell metabolism and delay aging. Carnosine can trap free radicals and prevent glycosylation reactions. It has anti-oxidation and anti-glycation effects. It can be used with whitening ingredients to enhance its whitening effect.

N-Acetyl-L-carnosine/N-acetyl L-carnosine shares an identical structure to l-carnosine with the addition of an acetyl group. It is more difficult for carnosinase enzymes to break down this acylated form of l-carnosine. L-carnosine is a naturally occurring dipeptide molecule synthesized from the amino acids histidine and alanine via carnosine synthetase enzymes. It is an antioxidant with antiglycation properties that improve longevity.

Muscles can store carnosine in high quantities as the body does not use it to synthesize proteins. The highest concentrations exist in parts of the body that demand a significant amount of energy, such as skeletal muscle, heart muscle, nerve tissue, and the brain.

Carnosine gets its name from the word carn, meaning meat or flesh. As the name implies, carnosine exists exclusively in meat. The body can synthesize l-carnosine in the liver, but vegetarians and vegans often have lower carnosine levels than people who eat meat. Individuals take N-acetyl l-carnosine and l-carnosine for their ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species (free radicals) and protect cellular structural components against oxidative stress.
