Calcium

About Calcium
Calcium is necessary for cardiac function, muscle contraction, nervous activity, coagulation of blood and for maintaining structural integrity of cell membranes.
Plasma concentration of calcium is kept in normal range by three endocrine factors which control metabolism of calcium. These are (a) Parathyroid hormone, (b) Calcitonin, (c) Vitamin D. Calcium in plasma is bound to albumin, is complexed with anions (e.g. phosphate) and as diffusible ionic calcium. The physiological effects are exerted by ionic calcium. The predominant source of calcium is dairy products and the daily intake varies from 200 - 2500 mg. Adequate calcium intake is particularly important during periods of bone growth in childhood and adolescence and during pregnancy and lactation.
Patients with advanced renal insufficiency exhibit phosphate retention and some degree of hyperphosphataemia. The retention of phosphate plays a pivotal role in causing secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with osteodystrophy and soft tissue calcification. Calcium acetate, when taken with meals, combines with dietary phosphate to form insoluble calcium phosphate which is excreted in the faeces.
Deficiency signs and symptoms: Osteoporosis, pathological fractures, brittle nails and hair.
Mechanism of Action of Calcium
Calcium is essential for maintaining the functional integrity of nervous, muscular, and skeletal system. It controls excitability of nerves and muscles and regulates permeability of cell membrane. It also regulates cell adhesion and maintains integrity of cell membrane. Calcium acts as intracellular messenger for hormones, autacoids, and transmitters. It is required for excitation-contraction coupling in all types of muscle and excitation-secretion coupling in exocrine and endocrine glands. It is essential for release of transmitters from nerve endings and other release reactions. It is also essential for impulse generation in heart and determines level of automaticity and
A-V conduction. Calcium is also required for blood-coagulation.
Pharmacokinets of Calcium
Absorption: Actively absorbed from gastrointestinal tract in an ionized form; and vitamin D in it`s active form is required for calcium absorption, Distribution: Distributed mainly in to skeletal tissue (99%) and 1% is distributed equally between the intracellular and extra cellular fluid. CSF levels are about half of the serum calcium levels, Metabolism: Not significantly metabolized in the body, Excretion: Excreted mainly through faeces and a small amount is excreted through urine.

Selenium

About Selenium
A vital antioxidant, selenium acts with vitamin E to protect the immune system and maintain healthy heart function. It is needed for pancreatic function and tissue elasticity and has been shown to protect against radiation and toxic minerals. High levels of heart disease are associated with selenium-deficient soil in Finland and a tendency to fibrotic heart lesions is associated with selenium deficiency in parts of China. Best sources are butter, Brazil nuts, seafood and grains grown in selenium-rich soil.

Zinc

About Zinc
Trance metal, Dietary mineral, Nutritional supplement,Treatment of zinc deficiency,in wound healing.
Mechanism of Action of Zinc
Zinc acts as a cofactor for more than 70 different enzymes. Zinc dependent enzymes are involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Zinc facilitates wound healing, normal growth rates, normal skin hydration and maintains senses of taste and smell. It provides normal growth and tissue repair. It also helps in development of cell mediated immunity.
Pharmacokinets of Zinc
Absorption: Poorly absorbed orally, Distribution: Zinc is distributed mainly in to skeletal muscle, skin, bone, pancreas, kidney, liver, retina, prostate, RBC, and WBC. Excretion: Excreted mainly through intestine; only 2% loss in the urine.

Amino acids

About Amino acids
An amino acid is any molecule that contains both amine and carboxyl functional groups. These amino acids are the basic components of proteins. There are twenty standard amino acids used by cells in protein biosynthesis that are specified by the general genetic code.
Amino acids are joined to each other by peptide bonds. A peptide bond is a chemical bond formed between two molecules (carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule), releasing a molecule of water (H2O). The resulting CO-NH bond is called a peptide bond, the chemical bond that links the amino acid monomers in a protein chain. Each protein has its own unique amino acid sequence that is known as its primary structure. Amino acids can be linked together in varying sequences to form a huge variety of proteins. The unique shape of each protein determines its function in the body.
Aminoacids are of 2 types, essential and nonessential. Essential amino acids are the ones that must be obtained in the diet and non-essential are synthesized within the body
Essential aminoacids: Methionine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Valine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Phenylalanine, Histidine,
Nonessential aminoacids: Alanine, Asparagine, Aspartic acids, Proline, Glutamic acid, Glutamine, Serine
Amino acids Arginine, Cysteine, Glycine and Tyrosine are considered conditionally essential, meaning they are not normally required in the diet, but must be supplied exogenously to specific populations that do not synthesize it in adequate amounts
Histidine and Arginine are generally only considered essential in children, because the metabolic pathways that synthesize these amino acids are not fully developed in children.
Nutritional role of aminoacids: Aminoacids have been used orally or in relatively dilute solutions intravenously as supplementary nutrients for patients unable to metabolize intact protein adequately. For patients in whom oral or tube feeding is contraindicated or Inadequate good nutrition may be achieved or maintained by intravenous feeding known as total parenteral nutrition or intravenous or parenteral hyperalimentation. Such feeding provides essential nutrients in a sufficiently concentrated form that does not exceed normal daily fluid requirements.
