Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Dace Hartmane"
Dace Hartmane's recent research primarily focuses on the metabolic implications of L-carnitine supplementation, particularly its effects on trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) levels and related cardiovascular markers in older women.
Findings indicate that while L-carnitine supplementation leads to increased TMAO levels, it does not significantly alter markers of oxidative stress or atherosclerosis, suggesting a complex interaction that may not directly promote cardiovascular disease.
Additionally, the studies explore the biochemical pathways involved in TMAO production and the genetic factors influencing metformin response in type 2 diabetes, emphasizing the importance of understanding both dietary supplements and pharmacogenomics in aging populations.
