In theory, this could support tissue repair, but it might also create risks if misregulated particularly in women with clotting disorders or cardiovascular history
Using similar strategies for upstream positive regulators of GPX4, for example, upregulating SLC7A11 expression via gene therapy, can multi-targetedly enhance the cells overall antioxidant capacity and GSH supply, thereby indirectly supporting and enhancing GPX4 activity ( via intra-articular AAV-Gfi1 injection, inactivated the MAPK signaling pathway, subsequently observing downregulation of ferroptosis promoters such as Cox2 and Acsl4 and upregulation of ferroptosis inhibitors such as GPX4 and SLC7A11, ultimately alleviating cartilage degeneration, osteophyte formation, and synovitis, and improving OA progression (Table 2)
[If] youre taking it orally, we know that peptides are not going to survive, Kekic says
There may be other explanations why an effect could not be detected, such as a low sensitivity of the assessment method
