Description
Choline is an essential micronutrient critical for cellular and organismal homeostasis. As a core component of phospholipids and sphingolipids, it is indispensable for membrane architecture and function. Additionally, choline is a precursor for acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter, and betaine, a methyl donor important for epigenetic regulation. Consistent with its pleiotropic role in cellular physiology, choline metabolism contributes to numerous developmental and physiological processes in the brain, liver, kidney, lung and immune system, and both choline deficiency and excess are implicated in human disease. Choline chloride is widely used in scientific research as a source of choline in cell culture media, where it supports membrane biosynthesis and methyl group metabolism.
