Unlike larger proteins that undergo hepatic metabolism or receptor-mediated endocytosis for degradation, KLOW's primary clearance route is direct renal excretion
The pathway in mammals is unique using protein-bound lysine that is enzymatically methylated to form trimethyllysine as a post-translational modification of protein synthesis [6]
This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, two key proteins that improve skin firmness, elasticity, and texture
With traditional braces, patients have to commit to a years-long process that requires continual adjustments to a standardized set of brackets, which is extremely cumbersome and inefficient, said Brandon Owen, DDS, MS, founder of KLOwen
