Dietary betaine regulates the synthesis of fatty acids through mTOR signaling in the muscle of zebrafish

Betaine has three active methyl groups, which determine its unique function in the metabolism of animals. In this study, the mechanism that betaine regulates the synthesis of fatty acids via mTOR signaling was investigated in zebrafish. It was found that betaine induced the protein expression of mTO...
