Antioxidants Protect against Arsenic Induced Mitochondrial Cardio-Toxicity
Arsenic is a potent cardiovascular toxicant associated with numerous biomarkers of cardiovascular diseases in exposed human populations. Arsenic is also a carcinogen, yet arsenic trioxide is used as a therapeutic agent in the treatment of acute promyelotic leukemia (APL). The therapeutic use of arsenic is limited due to its severe cardiovascular side effects. Many of the toxic effects of arseni...
متن کاملThe HER-2 as a Target Gene of Curcumin to Protect Hepatocytes Against the Arsenic-induced Carcinoma in Mice
Background & objective: The HER-2 gene is an important on co protein overexpressed in many types of cancers. The current study hypothesized that curcumin downregulates HER-2 and inhibits the signal transduction pathway of PI3K/Akt, MAPK, and activation of NFκB, which could be useful to treat overexpressed-HER-2 hepatocellular carcinom...
متن کاملCreatinine, Diet, Micronutrients, and Arsenic Methylation in West Bengal, India
BACKGROUND Ingested inorganic arsenic (InAs) is methylated to monomethylated (MMA) and dimethylated metabolites (DMA). Methylation may have an important role in arsenic toxicity, because the monomethylated trivalent metabolite [MMA(III)] is highly toxic. OBJECTIVES We assessed the relationship of creatinine and nutrition--using dietary intake and blood concentrations of micronutrients--with a...
