Researchers discover 5-aminolevulinic acid that fights against mitochondri
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have shown that the amino acid 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) helps to restore deficiencies in Complex I (CI), the first of a series of protein complexes that transport electrons and support mitochondrial energization.
