Studies also suggest that L-Carnitine supplementation can lower inflammatory markers, which are known to disrupt insulin pathways
For instance, the secretion of interferon gamma (IFN-) by CD8+ T cells has been shown to down-regulate the expression of SLC3A2 and SLC7A11 in tumor cells, leading to a disruption in cystine uptake ( Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) express the transporter SLC7A11, which selectively transports cystathionine but does not export cysteine
