The Effect of Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 on a Cellular Model of Alzheimer's Disease with Emphasis on Cell Viability and Mitochondrial Membrane Potential
Background and Objective: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder which is associated with extracellular accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques. AD is accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction and energy metabolism reduction. Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is an endogenous polypeptide which its beneficial effects have been demonstrated on mitochondrial function, energy m...
متن کاملP-52: Interest of Measuring MitochondrialMembrane Potential of Sperm by Flow Cytometry Technique in The Exploration ofSperm Quality of Infertile Men
Background: The fertilizing sperm potential is directly related to its mitochondria activity evaluated by measuring the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm). The objectives of the present study were to investigate the vitality and mitochondrial membrane potential of sperm in infertile men by the and to assess the correlations between sperm parameters and the level of sperm mitochondrial membr...
متن کاملApplication of a homogenous membrane potential assay to assess mitochondrial function.
Decreases in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) have been associated with mitochondrial dysfunction that could lead to cell death. The MMP is generated by an electrochemical gradient via the mitochondrial electron transport chain coupled to a series of redox reactions. Measuring the MMP in living cells is commonly used to assess the effect of chemicals on mitochondrial function; decreases i...

Objective(s): This work aimed to assess the effect of 10 new chromon-3-aldehyde derivatives on changes of mitochondrial function under the conditions of brain ischemia in rats. Materials and Methods: The work was executed on BALB/c male-mice (acute toxicity was evaluated) and male Wistar rats, which were used to model cerebral ischemia b...
متن کاملToxicity mechanisms of Cigarette Smoke on Eye and Kidney using Isolated Mitochondria
Cigarette smoking is one of the main risk factors for premature human death associated to a variety of respiratory and vascular diseases, and cancer due to containing Hundreds of toxicants. Rat mitochondria were obtained by differential ultracentrifugation and incubated with different concentrations (1, 10 and 100%) of standardized cigarette smoke extract (CSE). Our results showed that cigarett...
