Sodium dichloroacetate (DCA) is a mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase inhibitor, and is an orally absorbable small molecular compound for MELAS syndrome, and children with congenital lactic acidosis and other diseases that are treated in the clinic. Recent studies had found that DCA acts as a potential vasoprotective agent by inhibiting PDK2 and reducing coronary endarterium proliferation. Further, DCA promotes brain regeneration after cerebral ischemia, which indicates that DCA might play an important role in VD.

 

Sodium Dichloroacetate DCA, commonly referred to simply as dichloroacetate or DCA, is a buffered form of dichloracetic acid. This synthetic chemical compound has gained attention because it shows some potential as a cancer treatment. The buffered form of dichloracetic acid is not an acid and can be taken by mouth without causing burning. Sodium dichloroacetate is not approved drug and so is not readily available as a pharmaceutical-grade product. Consult with your doctor if you are interested in this potential treatment, which is still in the early research stages.
