Rising levels of NAPQI in the liver cause widespread damage, including lipid peroxidation, inactivation of cellular proteins, and disruption of DNA metabolism (Bessems 2001)

ii) Primary culture of satellite cells with 5 ng/ml HGF, which received only the LASSS pre-treatment (at 1:8000, without peroxynitrite treatment), exhibited a cell-proliferation activity (evaluated by mRNA expression levels of MyoD and its counter-regulatory factor myogenin at 48-h and 72-h time-points) comparable to that of the positive control culture treated with 5 ng/ml control HGF without LASSS (just with the solvent
Beyond TB-500, BPC-157 is sometimes considered alongside hormone optimization, since both support tissue integrity and recovery at a foundational level
