Ascorbic Acid (Vit C)

Organic Acids Metabolomic Mapping, NutriPATH

Optimal range:   10 - 200 mmol/molCr

Ascorbic Acid is a natural water-soluble vitamin (Vitamin C). Ascorbic acid is a potent reducing and antioxidant agent that functions in fighting bacterial infections, in detoxifying reactions, and in the formation of collagen in fibrous tissue, teeth, bones, connective tissue, skin, and capillaries.

Asialoganglioside IgG+IgA

Autoimmune Reactivity Screen

Optimal range:   0.6 - 1.6 ELISA Index

GM1 is exposed at the surface of spinal motor neurons, and in the peripheral nerves, it is limited to the node and paranodal region. Low levels of antibodies can be found in normal individuals and in patients with certain autoimmune disorders, however, high titers may be helpful in the diagnosis of multifocal motor neuropathy with conduction block (MMNCB), and paraproteinenia including motor neuron disease and multifocal motor neuropathy.

Asparagine

Amino Acid Analysis, Quest Diagnostics

Optimal range:   31 - 64 umol/L

Asparagine is a non-essential protein amino acid that is present in many fruits and vegetables including asparagus, from which it gets its name. Other dietary sources include meat, potatoes, eggs, nuts, and dairy. It can also be formed from aspartic acid and glutamine using the enzyme asparagine synthetase.

In addition to being a structural component of many proteins, asparagine is also useful to the urea cycle. It acts as a nontoxic carrier of residual ammonia to be eliminated from the body. Asparagine is rapidly converted to aspartic acid by the enzyme asparaginase. Interestingly, L-asparaginase has been successfully used as a chemotherapeutic agent for decades.

It causes extracellular depletion of asparagine which seems to play a critical role in cellular adaptations to glutamine and apoptosis.

Asparagine

Micronutrient Test, Spectracell Laboratories, SpectraCell Laboratories

Optimal range:   39 - 100 %

Asparagine is a dietarily dispensable amino acid synthesized from aspartate and glutamine. Asparagine has three major functions:

1) incorporation into amino acid sequences of proteins;

2) storage form for aspartate (is a required precursor for synthesis of DNA, RNA and ATP); and

3) source of amino groups for production of other dispensable amino acids via trasaminases.
