Application

Choline chloride has been used:as a substrate for measuring choline oxidase enzyme activity using fluorescence measurementsas a component of non-physiological buffers for testing calcium based inhibition of cytochrome c oxidasePas a component of perfusate solution for studying arterial pressure in jejunum samples

Biochem/physiol Actions

The enzymatic activities of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and paraoxonase 1 (PON1), two serum enzymes synthesized by the liver and related with inflammation, were decreased in a sepsis animal model injected with LPS. Choline chloride administered intravenously at 20 mg/kg body weight prevents the LPS-mediated decreases in the activities of these two enzymes .

Choline chloride treatment of radish seeds modulates phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine levels. It elicits hepatoprotective effects and modulates methyl carbon based metabolic pathways.

General description

Choline chloride is the synthetic form of vitamin B4, choline and is a common poultry feed.
