A WHO consultation identified the most vulnerable groups as elderly individuals, infants, preschool-aged children, and pregnant or lactating women, due to either increased nutritional demands or impaired absorption capacity ( Addressing the prevention of B12 deficiency and its public health implications requires a comprehensive, life-course approach based on integrated strategies targeting early detection, dietary optimisation, and effective supplementation, in order to mitigate the long-term consequences of inadequate cobalamin status ( Intramuscular (IM) injection is the most invasive and costly administration method, requiring trained personnel and clinical visits
The peptide also promotes polarization of macrophages from pro-inflammatory M1 phenotypes toward tissue-repairing M2 phenotypes, with treated macrophages showing 70% increased phagocytic activity for clearing inflammatory debris and 3-fold higher production of VEGF compared to untreated controls
Additional primary antibodies used were anti--synuclein (AS) (1:1000, Chemicon or 1:50, Abcam) and anti-tyrosine hydroxylase (TH, 1:8000, Sigma)
The concentration and purity of total RNA were determined using a NanoDrop spectrophotometer ND1000 (NanoDrop Technologies Inc., United States)
