Evaluation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Function by a Nuclear Imaging Technique using Technetium-99m-MIBI Uptake Kinetics
Mitochondria play an important role in energy production for the cell. The proper function of a myocardial cell largely depends on the functional capacity of the mitochondria. Therefore it is necessary to establish a novel and reliable method for a non-invasive assessment of mitochondrial function and metabolism in humans. Although originally designed for evaluating myocardial perfusion, 99mTc...
متن کاملFunction of mitochondrial complex-I and -IV in normal human and Parkinson's disease cybrids
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the dopaminergic neurodegeneration, which characterizes Parkinson’s disease (PD). The activities of mitochondrial complexes I and IV were found to be reduced in the brains of PD patients (n = 4) as compared to age-matched controls (n = 4). This is tested in SH-SY5Y cell lines, transformed Rho0 cells, and in normal and PD cybrid cell lines. Cybrid...

متن کاملA journey in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity with emphasizing on the role of Connexin 43 and Sirtuin-3
Cancer has become a major health problem worldwide. The reported incidence of new cancer cases is estimated at 19.3 million, with a mortality rate of 10 million in the world in 2020. There are some approaches for cancer treatment such as chemotherapy, neoadjuant surgery, hormone therapy, and radiotherapy. Chemotherapy is an aggressive form of chemical drug therapy meant to destroy rapidly growi...

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...
