Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphoserine (PS) can be used as a template for the recognition of cancer antigen 125 (CA 125). It is very essential for healthy nerve cell membranes and myelin. Exogenous PS can be actively absorbed in humans. It has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. It plays a key role in the formation of short-term memory, the ability to create new memories, to focus attention, to reason and solve problems and several other cognitive activities. It actively participates in the locomotor functions, like rapid reactions and reflexes.
