The standard dose is 1000 mcg (1 mg) per month
In addition, both TTP and gAgAP downregulated transcription levels of angiotensin II receptor type 1 ( agtr1 ) and miR-132/-212, with TTP producing a comparable reduction in agtr1 to captopril and a significant decrease in miR-132/-212 expression
Conversely, at the protective level, low-dose/acute exposure mitigates inflammation via TNF signaling inhibition, activates the Nrf2 pathway to induce antioxidant enzymes (e.g., HO-1, NQO1) for oxidative stress resistance, and induces metabolic reprogramming (e.g., shifting from fatty acid oxidation to glucose oxidation under hypoxia) to maintain energy homeostasis
18 Enzymatic antioxidants (scavengers) include catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione S-transferases, thioredoxin protein, and thioredoxin reductase
