Solanesol, extracted from tobacco
leaves, is used in synthesis of
high-value bio-chemicals such
as vitamin-K analogues and Co-enzyme
Q10 (Co Q10). Solanesol, the starting
material used in the synthesis
of Co Q 10
and Vitamin
K analogues, is also a potentiating agent
in these medicines. Studies indicate that
by introducing solanesol radical into the
structure of some medicines, the effects
increase noticeably. With solanesol as its
primary material, Co-enzyme Q 10 is useful
in the treatment of heart diseases, cancers
and ulcers.
Co-enzyme Q 10 is a physiologically
active substance with high pharmaceutical
activity. It is a popular nutrient known
to increase cellular energy in the user.
Since it is produced by the body, it is
technically not a vitamin (vitamins are
not manufactured by the body but ingested).
Co Q10 is produced in small quantities by
the body that are insufficient to provide
any of the health benefits and thus supplementation
is necessary. CoQ10 is either manufactured
by fermentation using a special strain of
yeast or by partial fermentation and then
synthesis using solanesol.
Vitamin K is best known
for its role in helping blood clot properly,
and in preventing excessive bleeding. It
also plays an important role in bone health
(osteoporosis). Vitamin K has also been
known to prevent kidney stones, may stop
liver cancer growth, helps control body,
fecal, and urinary odor and to treat skin
wounds.
Solanesol can be used as
main co-enzyme against cardiac insufficiency,
muscular dystrophy and anaemia. Recent scientific
evidence suggests that nicotine and nicotine-like
compounds may slow or ameliorate the symptoms
of certain diseases like Tourette's syndrome,
Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease,
ulcerative colitis and attention deficit
disorder (ADD).
