Overall methylation status (%) after treatment with L-carnitine or acetyl-L-carnitine
| After long term culturing | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starting cultures | Untreated | L-carnitine | ALC | |
| *Lowest methylation is the result of high demethylation percentage of sites 28 and 29. | ||||
| F | 99.7 | 97.2* | 99.2 | 98.6 |
| M | 99.0 | 98.7 | 96.2 | 95.6 |
