  1. Methionine restriction decreases oxidative damage to mtDNA in rats.

    “40% MetR (in all the studied organs, heart, brain, liver or kidney) is enough to decrease mtROSp and oxidative damage to mtDNA in rats”

  2. Methionine restriction decreases oxidative damage to mtDNA in rats.

    “decreases oxidative damage to mtDNA, lowers membrane unsaturation, and decreases all five markers of protein oxidation measured in rat heart and liver mitochondria.”
