Betaine restores epigenetic control and supports neuronal mitochondria in the cuprizone mouse model of multiple sclerosis

Methionine metabolism is dysregulated in multiple sclerosis (MS). The methyl donor betaine is depleted in the MS brain where it is linked to changes in levels of histone H3 trimethylated on lysine 4 (H3K4me3) and mitochondrial impairment. We investigated the effects of replacing this depleted betain...
