Toxicity 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...
متن کاملCurcumin Ameliorates Sodium Valproate Induced Neurotoxicity through Suppressing Oxidative Stress and Preventing Mitochondrial Impairments
Background and purpose: Curcumin is a natural polyphenolic compound in turmeric (Curcuma longa). Curcumin has potent free radical scavenger and antioxidant properties that could significantly reduce oxidative damage. Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction contribute to valproate sodium induced tissue damage. This study investigated the protective effects of curcumin against valproate so...
متن کاملProjection of Need for Pathogenetic Testing for Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Children of India
Background Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder. There is a large quantity of evidence which point towards a positive correlation between Autism and Mitochondrial disorders (MD). In addition to that, several published reports, indicate that people with neurological disorders exhibit pathological signs of mitochondrial disorders and vice versa. Screening for underly...
متن کاملMitochondrial Dysfunction in Parkinson’s Disease: New Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Perspectives
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder, the aetiology of which is still largely unknown. Overwhelming evidence indicates that mitochondrial dysfunction is a central factor in PD pathophysiology. Here we review recent developments around mitochondrial dysfunction in familial and sporadic PD, with a brief overview of emerging therapies targeting mitocho...
متن کاملPerspectives in Pharmacology Mitochondrial Function and Dysfunction: An Update
With the current explosion of knowledge on the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in the genesis of various human disease states, there is an increased interest in targeting mitochondrial processes, pathways, and proteins for drug discovery efforts in cancer and cardiovascular, metabolic, and central nervous system diseases, the latter including autism and neurodegenerative diseases. We provide ...
