The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences , shows that people with depression have low blood levels of acetyl-L-carnitine, which is naturally produced in the body and plays a crucial role in the metabolism of fats and energy production in each of our cells
Our findings suggest that newly formed/myelin-forming OLs represent a particularly sensitive state during adult OL differentiation
Importantly, cells could be protected from ferroptosis by providing exogenous small molecule lipophilic antioxidants (e.g., ferrostatin-1, liproxstatin-1, trolox) and iron chelators (e.g., deferoxamine) that neutralize toxic lipid ROS or decrease the formation of lipid peroxyl radicals [60, 61, 67]
