What CONDROSULF is and what it is used for
The active substance in CONDROSULF is chondroitin sulphate, which is one of the main constituents of the cartilage intercellular mass and has a characteristic significant ability to bind water in the tissue. This ensures the mechanical and elastic properties of cartilage. In joint degenerative processes, the content of chondroitin sulfate in cartilage is reduced by the action of specific enzymes (lytic enzymes), which lead to cartilage degeneration. As a result of the reduced ability to bind water, there is a gradual degeneration of cartilage and deterioration of joint function. Chondroitin sulfate suppresses the activity of enzymes that damage cartilage, promotes metabolism in cartilage and improves the mechanical-elastic properties of cartilage. Administration of CONDROSULF restores the metabolic balance of the basic cellular components of cartilage (chondrocytes).
Co je pripravek CONDROSULF a k cemu se pouziva
Lecivou latkou pripravku CONDROSULF je chondroitinsulfat, ktery je jednou z hlavnich soucasti mezibunecne hmoty chrupavky a ma charakteristickou vyznacnou schopnost vazat ve tkani vodu. Zabezpecuje tim mechanicke a elasticke vlastnosti chrupavky. Pri kloubnich degenerativnich procesech dochazi ke snizovani obsahu chondroitinsulfatu v chrupavce pusobenim specifickych enzymu (lytickych enzymu), ktere vedou k degeneraci chrupavky. Nasledkem snizene schopnosti vazat vodu dochazi pak k postupne degeneraci chrupavky a ke zhorseni funkce kloubu. Chondroitinsulfat potlacuje aktivitu enzymu, ktere poskozuji chrupavku, podporuje latkovou vymenu v chrupavce a zlepsuje mechanicko-elasticke vlastnosti chrupavky. Podavani pripravku CONDROSULF zajistuje obnoveni metabolicke rovnovahy zakladnich bunecnych slozek chrupavky (chondrocytu).
