Nervonic acid, a long chain monounsaturated fatty acid, improves mitochondrial function in adrenomyeloneuropathy fibroblasts
Our findings indicate a new mechanism of action for nervonic acid in ALD and other mitochondrial dysfunction-associated diseases. This can also indirectly prevent downstream inflammation, thus altering disease progression.
