In vitro experiments have shown that lipoic acid can reduce lipid oxidation in nerve tissue, inhibit protein glycosylation, and inhibit aldose reductase. In vivo, lipoic acid has an antioxidant effect and participates in the recycling of antioxidants such as glutathione and coenzyme Q10. Lipoic acid can chelate certain metal ions (such as copper, manganese, and zinc).
