Correlation of polyamines, acrolein-conjugated lysine and polyamine metabolic enzyme levels with age in human liver
The polyamines spermidine, spermine and putrescine are essential for normal cellular functions. The contents of polyamines in tissue decreased in aged mice compared to young mice. In this study, the polyamine contents and their metabolic byproduct acrolein-conjugated lysine (Nε-(3-formyl-3,4-dehydro...
