When oxidative stress exceeds the liver's protective capacity, cellular damage accumulates, potentially leading to inflammation, fibrosis, and impaired liver function
Instead of blocking pain signals downstream, certain peptides appear to promote actual nerve fiber regrowth, reduce the neuroinflammation driving ongoing damage, and restore function rather than merely masking dysfunction
Cytosolic GSTs are spreadily distributed and in turn divided into several major classes on the basis of their chemical, physical and structural properties
Therefore, understanding whether IF can mitigate these factors by improving both inflammatory and oxidative stress markers, as well as liver enzyme profiles, could offer a novel, non-pharmacological strategy for managing RA and its associated metabolic complications in this vulnerable population
