Spermidine Supplementation Protects the Liver Endothelium from Liver Damage in Mice
Chronic liver diseases are multifactorial and the need to develop effective therapies is high. Recent studies have shown the potential of ameliorating liver disease progression through protection of the liver endothelium. Polyamine spermidine (SPD) is a caloric restriction mimetic with autophagy-enh...

Chronic liver diseases are multifactorial and the need to develop effective therapies is high. Recent studies have shown the potential of ameliorating liver disease progression through protection of the liver endothelium.

We evaluated the use of dietary supplementation with SPD in two models of liver disease (CCl<sub>4</sub> and CDAAH diet).
