Article Synopsis
- Elevated homocysteine levels are recognized as a risk factor for atherosclerosis, and the study investigates the potential of c3Ado, an inhibitor of homocysteine, on its levels and related effects in mice.
- Treatment with c3Ado led to a significant reduction in homocysteine levels (up to 45.3%) and correspondingly decreased atherosclerotic plaque formation in mice after 12 and 24 weeks on an atherogenic diet.
- Additionally, c3Ado treatment reduced monocyte adhesion and the expression of adhesion molecules, suggesting its potential role in mitigating atherosclerosis progression.
