Metabolite Identification
Common NameGlycerylphosphorylcholine
DescriptionCholine alfoscerate, also known as alphoscerate, choline, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as glycerophosphocholines. These are lipids containing a glycerol moiety carrying a phosphocholine at the 3-position. Choline alfoscerate is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Glycerylphosphorylcholine is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Glycerylphosphorylcholine is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
