N-acetyltyrosineis an amino acid used in total parenteral nutrition.

Brand Names
Aminosyn二世7 %, Sulfite-free, Trophamine 10 %
Generic Name
N-acetyltyrosine
DrugBank Accession Number
DB11102
Background

N-acetyltyrosine, also referred to as N-acetyl-L-tyrosine, is used in place of as a tyrosine precursor.Tyrosine是一种非必需氨基酸,polar side group. N-acetyltyrosine is administered as parenteral nutrition or intravenous infusion due to its enhanced solubility compared to tyrosine2. It is typically administered as a source of nutritional support where oral nutrition is inadequate or cannot be tolerated.

Pharmacology

Indication

N-acetyltyrosine is indicated, in combination with several other amino acids and dextrose, as a peripherally administered source of nitrogen for nutritional support in patients with adequate stores of body fat in whom, for short periods, oral administration cannot be tolerated, is undesirable, or inadequateLabel.

It is also indicated, with other amino acids, 5-10% dextrose, and fat emulsion, for parenteral nutrition to preserve protein and reduce catabolism in stress conditions where oral administration is inadequateLabel.

When administered with other amino acids and concentrated dextrose, it is indicated for central vein infusion to prevent or reverse negative nitrogen balance in patients where the alimentary tract by the oral, gastrostomy, or jejestomy routes cannot or should not be used or in patients in which gastrointestinal absorption of protein is impaired, metabolic requirements for protein are substantially increased, or morbidity and mortality may be reduced by replacing amino acids lost from tissue breakdownLabel

Pharmacodynamics

N-acetyltyrosine is used as a high solubility precursor toTyrosineused due toTyrosine's poor solubility2. It is deacetylated to formTyrosine.

Mechanism of action

Used as a source ofTyrosine. SeeTyrosinefor more information on its role and pharmacology.

Route of elimination

N-acetyltyrosine is eliminated in the urine1. The extent of urinary elimination versus utilization in the tissues appears to be related to the rapidity of infusion. When infused slowly in standard doses as in the clinical setting, about 35% is excreted unchanged in the urine. When larger doses are infused rapidly, much higher amounts are excreted reaching values up to 56%3. In rat studies it was found that of the drug eliminated in the urine about 74% is present as unchanged N-acetyltyrosine and 23% is present as tyrosine2.
