I mean there is talk about the kideneys, embryo etc.. but to what I have read the expression of the megalin proteins is very tissue specific.. third: dow e know that if there are any compensatory mechanims if indeed this megalin acticity can be altered? there are so many open questions here and I once again feel like u have too high hopes for this... but Im keeping my fingers crossed..
I'm keeping my fingers crossed as well...thank you brother. Some articles state Megalin is very tissue specific, other contradict this. The problem here is that Megalin was discovered in 2005. There is not much research out for it yet.
Skullsmasher did post a way to increase Megalin however. Dosen't hurt to try does it? Also I will look into Cubulin as well. It seems Cubulin works with Megalin.
Well I'm off to call the clinic/endocrinologists.
