1, protect the retina
Taurine accounted for 50% of the total free amino acids in the retina, animal experiments show that the lack of taurine cat whose ERG rod cells and cone cells display a wide range of variability.
After concentration to promote the development of the fetal central nervous system, the brain tissue was significantly higher than in, indicating the development of the central nervous system of taurine, such as proliferation, migration and differentiation of cells play a role.
2, the role of myocardial protection
Taurine has enhanced the role of cardiac contractility. Digoxin can cause cardiac arrhythmia confrontation, which may taurine membrane permeability and the role of ion flow, the maintenance of intracellular calcium ion concentration. There taurine improve myocardial hypoxia tolerance.
3, anti-oxidation
Taurine maintains many cells, especially blood cells antioxidant activity, so that tissue from oxidative base damage and free radicals.
4, promote immune function
Taurine improves cellular immune phagocytosis, and promote the role of immunoglobulin produced.
5, to promote digestion and absorption of lipids
Taurine and taurocholic acid combined into, involved in digestion and absorption of lipids.
Taurine has reduced platelet aggregation, with enhanced sperm motility and increase the activity of insulin and so on.
