Rather than acting through a single defined receptor, DSIP appears to modulate multiple neural pathways: NMDA receptor modulation : May influence glutamatergic signaling involved in sleep-wake transitions CRF suppression : Reduces corticotropin-releasing factor, potentially lowering stress-related arousal Serotonin/dopamine modulation : Affects monoaminergic systems involved in sleep regulation Delta sleep promotion : Increases the proportion of slow-wave (delta) sleep, the most restorative sleep stage DSIP does not act as a sedative
There are our gut microbes outnumber us 10 to 1
Strengthens the protective lining of the gut and speeds up the regrowth of the surface cells that make up that lining
The MOTS-C Connection MOTS-C activates AMPK through a mitochondrial stress pathway, improving fat oxidation and cellular energy efficiency
Fatty acid synthase (FAS) sequentially uses malonyl-CoA to extend the growing fatty acyl chain by two carbons to form the 16-carbon saturated fatty acid palmitate, which is the main product of fatty acid synthesis (141)
