Vascular dysfunction and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: the role of redox balance
In colitis models, increased KG/succinate ratio resulting from KG accumulation can enhance the activity of KG-dependent dioxygenases, thereby promoting the differentiation of intestinal stem cells and maintaining intestinal homeostasis, KG supplementation can reverse these colitis-induced injuries and facilitate tissue healing (325)
