Taurine is an amino acid converted from sulfur-containing amino acids, also known as taurine, taurine, taurine, and taurine. Taurine is widely distributed in various tissues and organs in the body, and mainly exists in the interstitial fluid and intracellular fluid in a free state. It was first discovered in bull bile and got its name, but it has long been considered a non-functional metabolite of sulfur-containing amino acids. Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid in animals, but it is not a component of protein. Taurine is widely distributed in the brain, heart, liver, kidney, ovary, uterus, skeletal muscle, blood, saliva and milk of humans and animals in the form of free amino acids, with the highest concentration in tissues such as the pineal gland, retina, pituitary gland, and adrenal gland. In the heart of mammals, free taurine accounts for as much as 50% of the total free amino acids.
Taurine is an organic osmotic regulator that not only participates in regulating cell volume, but also provides a basis for the formation of bile salts, and also plays an important role in modulating the concentration of free calcium in cells. Although taurine is a special amino acid that is not included in protein substances, it is the most abundant amino acid in the brain, retina, and muscle tissue. Taurine is widely used, such as in the function of the central nervous system, cell protection, cardiomyopathy, renal insufficiency, renal dysplasia, and retinal nerve damage. Almost all eye tissues contain taurine. Quantitative analysis of rat eye tissue extracts showed that taurine is the most abundant amino acid in the retina, vitreous body, lens, cornea, iris, and ciliary body. Many studies have found that taurine is an active substance that regulates the normal physiological activities of the body. It has a wide range of biological functions such as anti-inflammatory, analgesic, maintaining the body's osmotic pressure balance, maintaining normal visual function, regulating cell calcium balance, lowering blood sugar, regulating nerve conduction, participating in endocrine activities, regulating lipid digestion and absorption, increasing heart contractility, improving the body's immune ability, enhancing cell membrane antioxidant capacity, and protecting myocardial cells.
