Peter Attia MD

A rare genetic disease caused by a gene defect in KMT2D (an acetylase enzyme), which leads to an imbalance in gene expression. D'Agostino's lab found that nutritional ketosis, functioning as a histone deacetylase inhibitor, can rescue the phenotype in mouse models by restoring neuronal density and enhancing learning and memory.
