Zinc picolinate is an orally effective zinc supplement. Zinc picolinate reduces the expression of Hsp70, inhibits oxidative DNA damage, increases serum ALP activity, decreases MDA concentration, elevates SOD levels, and raises zinc concentrations in serum, whole body and plasma. Zinc picolinate does not alter copper and manganese contents in rainbow trout. Zinc picolinate exerts a protective effect against Acetic acid (HY-Y0319)-induced experimental colitis in Sprague Dawley rats. Zinc picolinate reduces uterine fibroid volume, alleviates colonic oxidative damage, relieves colonic inflammation, and enhances intestinal barrier integrity. Zinc picolinate can be used in research related to uterine fibroids, ulcerative colitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

In Vivo

Zinc picolinate (dietary supplementation at 30-60 mg zinc/kg; oral administration; ad libitum daily intake; for 350 days) significantly reduces the volume of spontaneous oviduct leiomyomas in Japanese quails, decreases the levels of systemic oxidative stress markers, and downregulates the expression of Hsp70 in leiomyoma tissues[1].
Zinc picolinate (dietary zinc content 30-60 mg Zn/kg; oral administration; twice daily; for 55 days) linearly reduces oxidative stress (measured by MDA concentration) in rainbow trout, increases their serum ALP activity and tissue zinc levels, and does not affect their growth, feed intake, feed efficiency, or copper/manganese concentrations[2].
Zinc picolinate (6 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily; for 10 consecutive days) exerts a protective effect against acetic acid-induced ulcerative colitis in male Sprague Dawley rats by alleviating oxidative stress, inhibiting local and systemic inflammation, enhancing intestinal barrier integrity, and improving histopathological outcomes, while significantly reducing colonic TNF-α levels and histopathological scores[3].
Zinc picolinate (6 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily; for 10 consecutive days) regulates the expression of colonic cytokines and tight junction proteins in healthy male Sprague Dawley rats, significantly increases colonic TNF-α levels, decreases colonic IL-6, occludin-1 and claudin-1 levels, and does not alter macroscopic or histopathological results[3].

Reduced serum oxidative stress markers significantly in a linear dose-dependent manner (P = .01): serum MDA was 1.34 μmol/L (30 mg/kg) and 0.93 μmol/L (60 mg/kg) vs. 1.95 μmol/L control; serum 8-isoprostane was 93 pg/mL (30 mg/kg) and 85 pg/mL (60 mg/kg) vs. 108 pg/mL control; serum HAE was 1.21 μmol/L (30 mg/kg) and 0.96 μmol/L (60 mg/kg) vs. 1.55 μmol/L control; serum 8-OHdG was 23.6 ng/mL (30 mg/kg) and 20.1 ng/mL (60 mg/kg) vs. 28.5 ng/mL control.
Decreased Hsp70 expression in fibroid tissue significantly in a dose-dependent manner (P < .05), with densitometric readings showing ~73% of control levels for the 30 mg/kg group and ~39% of control levels for the 60 mg/kg group.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
