Fasting activation of AgRP neurons requires NMDA receptors and involves spinogenesis and increased excitatory tone
Additional research has explored possible effects on nervous system signaling, oxidative stress responses, and inflammatory regulation
And an H2A deubiquitinase, tumor suppressor BAP1-mediated SLC7A11 inhibition, does not require Nrf2 and ATF4 transcription factors but represses SLC7A11 expression by reducing H2A ubiquitination (H2Aub) on the SLC7A11 promoter (Zhang et al., 2019)
Overall, the regulation of autophagy by TXNIP exhibits a dual nature, capable of either suppressing or promoting autophagy
However, these results are: Not consistent across all users Dependent on delivery (IV or liposomal forms work better than tablets) Often reversible when the supplement is stopped Unlike glutathione, astaxanthin also enhances glutathione production within the body, making it a supportive partner in skin pigmentation management rather than just a surface solution
