How does DHA support Peroxisomal function?
The newest research focuses on intervention in peroxisome function, reducing protein misfolding by chaperon therapy , and how to stimulate proliferation of the peroxisome. Betaine Anhydrous (TMG-trimethylglycine) has been identified as one of the possible substances that may improve clinical function, as well as L-Arginine. Current studies also seem to indicate that DHA stimulates peroxisomal division.
