Indeed metformin inhibits the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation complex I, leading to increased cellular AMP levels and subsequent stimulation of AMPK, an enzyme that plays key roles in the regulation of cellular energy homeostatis
For instance: Sub-toxic doses of nsPEF activate autophagy as a compensatory mechanism to repair membrane damage, but prolonged exposure increases cell death while concomitantly reducing autophagy markers ( Notably, nsPEF can also exert cell cycle-specific effects on tumor cells, such as inhibiting the proliferation of S-phase cells without significantly affecting their viability ( Collectively, these studies reveal the potential of PEFs to exert multi-faceted anti-tumor effects by inducing apoptosis, modulating autophagy, triggering ferroptosis, activating other RCD pathways, and potentially synergizing with chemotherapeutic drugs ( Figure 2 )
This dual mechanism is why tirzepatide produces greater weight loss in clinical trials and why the dosing numbers look completely different
Andrew Huberman, PhD, describes the effects of BPC-157 as remarkable, based on his personal experience of it healing his L5 root compression injury
