A cofactor involved in mitochondrial enzyme reactions, also sold as alpha-lipoic acid.

ESR1 encodes estrogen receptor alpha, which helps cells respond to estrogen. Receptor signaling is different from the amount of estrogen measured in blood.

FOLR1 encodes folate receptor alpha, which helps cells take up folate and has an important role in folate transport at the brain’s barriers. Blood folate and folate availability in the nervous system are not identical measurements.

CCL3 encodes MIP-1 alpha, a chemokine involved in attracting and activating immune cells. It is related to CCL4, or MIP-1 beta, but the two genes and proteins are distinct.

IL15RA encodes the alpha receptor component for IL-15. It helps present IL-15 to responding immune cells, supporting communication that is important for particular lymphocyte populations.

IL2RA encodes the alpha chain of the interleukin-2 receptor, also called CD25. It is involved in immune activation and regulatory T-cell biology; a soluble receptor measurement is distinct from a DNA result.

TNFSF10 encodes TRAIL, a signaling protein involved in regulated cell death through particular receptors. It is a different member of the TNF-related signaling family from TNF itself.

ACTN3 is the gene name for Alpha-Actinin-3. Learn what a specific result could mean and what to ask about it.

TPSAB1 is the gene name for Alpha Tryptase. Learn what a specific result could mean and what to ask about it.

Explore interleukin-15 receptor subunit alpha, IL-15 signaling, natural killer cells, CD8+ T cells, and pain.

Explore interleukin-2 receptor alpha, regulatory T cells, soluble IL-2 receptor, and T-cell activation.

Want to know one of my favorite nootropics? L-Theanine! L-Theanine is one of the very few nootropics known to modulate brain waves. It affects alpha brain waves which are associated with relaxation. Providing an alert calmness, L-Theanine
