These agents protect neuronal health and slow down disease progression, offering a potential adjunct to other therapies (Sztretye et al., 2019)
Some examples of the carrier-mediated transporters include the glucose carrier 1 (GLUT1), the LAT1/2, cationic amino acid transporter 1 and 3 (CAT1/3), the monocarboxylic acid carrier 1 and 8 (MCT1/8), the fatty acid transport protein 1 and 4 (FATP1/4), the sodium-independent concentrative nucleoside transporter-2 (CNT2), the organic cation transporter 2 (OCTN2), the OAT3, and the organic anion transporting peptides (OATP1C1, OATP1A4, OATP2B1) [12]
But it's not for its amino acid protein-building qualities that people crave this stuff
