Upon binding to IGF-1R, the peptide initiates multiple intracellular signaling cascades, including the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mTOR pathway, which regulates protein synthesis and cell growth, and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, which controls cell proliferation and survival

Gene expression analysis in ARPE-19 cells was conducted by amplifying the following genes: SOD2 (protein name: superoxide dismutase 2, mitochondrial), CAT (protein name: catalase), HMOX1 (protein name: heme oxygenase 1), SNAL1 (protein name: Snail Family Transcriptional Repressor 1), ZEB1 (protein name: Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 1), TWIST1 (protein name: Twist Family BHLH Transcription Factor 1), VIM (protein name: Vimentin), FN1 (protein name: Fibronectin 1), ACTA2 (protein name: actin alpha 2, smooth muscle) and GAPDH (protein name: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase)
Evidences from preclinical studies suggest that L-carnitine may modulate the JAK/STAT signaling cascade, particularly through the suppression of STAT3 expression in inflammatory and tissue injury contexts (Hassan et al
