Application
- Assessment between antiseptic and normal saline for negative pressure wound therapy with instillation and dwell time in diabetic foot infections.: Betaine is evaluated for its antimicrobial properties in a clinical setting, comparing its effectiveness with standard treatments for enhancing wound healing and preventing infection in diabetic foot ulcers. This study contributes to the optimization of therapeutic strategies for chronic wounds (Zhao J et al., 2024).
- [Clinical features and follow-up study on 55 patients with adolescence-onset methylmalonic acidemia].: This research includes betaine in the treatment protocols for patients with methylmalonic acidemia, analyzing its effectiveness in reducing symptoms and improving metabolic profiles. The study provides valuable insights into the management of this rare metabolic disorder (Ma X et al., 2024).
Biochem/physiol Actions
End-product of oxidative metabolism of choline, betaine is a general methyl donor, in particular in a minor pathway of methionine biosynthesis. It is used to treat homocystinuria, which is a defect in the major pathway of methionine biosynthesis.

We reported previously that maternal betaine promotes hepatic insulin-like growth factor (IGF2) expression in F1 offspring rats through hypermethylation of the IGF2/H19 imprinting control region (ICR). It remains unknown whether this acquired trait can be transmitted to the F2 generation.

Betaine serves as a methyl donor for DNA methylation. Here, the effects of betaine on hippocampal expression of neurogenesis genes and their DNA methylation status across three generations are investigated. Pregnant rats (F0) are fed control and betaine-supplemented diets throughout

Excessive exposure of glucocorticoids activates adipose lipolysis, increases circulating free fatty acids, and contributes to ectopic lipid deposition in liver and skeletal muscle. Our previous study demonstrated that maternal betaine supplementation attenuates glucocorticoid-induced hepatic lipid accumulation in rat offspring. However
