3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase deficiency is a disorder biochemically characterized by the predominant accumulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutarate (HMG), 3-methylglutarate (MGA), 3-methylglutaconate and 3-hydroxyisovalerate in tissues and in vivo administration of HMG and MGA significantly decrease GSH concentration in liver in young rats [25]

For instance, several microbes synthesize modified versions of GSH or have even replaced GSH with distinct but redox-similar analogs [63]

Preclinical studies in rat models show that HG can cross the oxygenator membrane, allowing it to reach the bloodstream and exert therapeutic effects [57, 58]

Findings of the study, which used Lonzas Carnipure ingredient and was funded by the Swiss company, are published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition
