NADPH

NADPH (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate, reduced form) is a molecule that acts as a source of energy and electrons in cells. It plays a key role in supporting processes like building molecules (biosynthesis), defending against oxidative stress, and waste removal. NADPH provides the necessary energy to drive these reactions by donating electrons, helping cells maintain their health and function. It’s especially important in the production of fatty acids, cholesterol, and in the immune system’s ability to fight infections. Essentially, NADPH is a vital cellular resource that powers essential biochemical activities.
