Polyphenols as potential therapeutical agents against cardiovascular diseases.
Increasing evidence suggests that polyphenols from fruits, vegetables and beverages such as wine and tea may exert protective effects on the cardiovascular system. Indeed, research in the field of polyphenols points out their antioxidant and free radical scavenging properties, leading to lower low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation and platelet aggregation. These compounds are also able to mod...
متن کاملIron chelation as a potential therapy for neurodegenerative disease.
Neurodegenerative disorders include a variety of pathological conditions, which share similar critical metabolic processes such as protein aggregation and oxidative stress, both of which are associated with the involvement of metal ions. Chelation therapy could provide a valuable therapeutic approach to such disease states, since metals, particularly iron, are realistic pharmacological targets ...
متن کاملMetal ions, Alzheimer's disease and chelation therapy.
In the last few years, various studies have been providing evidence that metal ions are critically involved in the pathogenesis of major neurological diseases (Alzheimer, Parkinson). Metal ion chelators have been suggested as potential therapies for diseases involving metal ion imbalance. Neurodegeneration is an excellent target for exploiting the metal chelator approach to therapeutics. In con...
متن کاملChelation in Metal Intoxication
Chelation therapy is the preferred medical treatment for reducing the toxic effects of metals. Chelating agents are capable of binding to toxic metal ions to form complex structures which are easily excreted from the body removing them from intracellular or extracellular spaces. 2,3-Dimercaprol has long been the mainstay of chelation therapy for lead or arsenic poisoning, however its serious si...
متن کاملTherapeutic Potential of Polyphenols in Parkinson’s Disease
Increased human life expectancy has resulted in larger geriatric population throughout the world. Consequently, there is increased prevalence of age-associated neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson’s disease (PD) with serious impact on healthcare. This has intensified the scientific research on the pathology and therapy of the central nervous system (CNS). Although modern approach in b...
