In vivo effects of methamphetamine on brown fat reactive oxygen species and mitochondria
Methamphetamine (commonly known as Meth) is a highly addictive drug of abuse, which causes a potentially lethal increase in core body temperature, or hyperthermia. We have recently found that Meth-induced hyperthermia has a significant participation of the thermogenic brown adipose tissue,1 and can be prevented by a pretreatment with the antioxidant N-acetyl cysteine.1 For this publication, we ...

متن کاملCardiac mitochondria and reactive oxygen species generation.
Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) have emerged as an important mechanism of disease and redox signaling in the cardiovascular system. Under basal or pathological conditions, electron leakage for ROS production is primarily mediated by the electron transport chain and the proton motive force consisting of a membrane potential (ΔΨ) and a proton gradient (ΔpH). Several factors controllin...
متن کاملBrief Review Mitochondria and Reactive Oxygen Species
Fascination by the mitochondria, “the colonial posterity of migrant prokaryocytes, probably primitive bacteria that swam into ancestral precursors of our eukaryotic cells and stayed there,”1 stems from the above-mentioned nebulous endosymbiotic theory of their origin, as well as from the growing realization of a very special role that they play in the pathogenesis of diverse diseases. These org...
متن کاملProduction of Reactive Oxygen Species by Mitochondria
The mitochondrial respiratory chain is a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) under pathological conditions including myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. Limitation of electron transport by the inhibitor rotenone immediately before ischemia decreases the production of ROS in cardiac myocytes and reduces damage to mitochondria. We asked if ROS generation by intact mitochondria during t...
