background: induction of cellular response after exposure to electromagnetic fields is limited to coherent fields. an incoherent noise field is supposed to suppress the bioeffects of regular rf electromagnetic fields. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of gsm mobile phone-induced radiofrequency (rf) on the induction of oxidative stress in sp2/0 cell line. materials and meth...

BACKGROUND Reactive oxygen species arise in the mitochondria as byproducts of respiration and oxidase activity and have important roles in many physiological and pathophysiological conditions. The level of reactive oxygen species is regulated by a number of enzymes and physiological antioxidants, including HO-1, Sod2, catalase and COX-2, etc. And HO-1 against oxidative stress requires an increa...

Nitric oxide (NO) and its derivatives (reactive nitrogen species) have multiple effects on mitochondria that impact on cell physiology and cell death. Mitochondria may produce and consume NO and NO stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis, apparently via cGMP upregulation of transcriptional factors. NO inhibits mitochondrial respiration via: (A) an acute and reversible inhibition of cytochrome oxida...

The endogenous reactive oxygen species ("ROS") formation is associated with many pathologic states such as inflammatory diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, brain and heart ischemic injuries, cancer, and aging. The purpose of this study was to investigate the endogenous sources for "ROS" formation in intact isolated rat hepatocytes, in particular, peroxisomal oxidases, monoamine oxidase, xanth...

Mitochondrial fragmentation due to fission/fusion imbalance has often been linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in neurodegeneration. Conventionally, it is believed that once mitochondrial morphology shifts away from its physiological tubular form, mitochondria become defective and downstream apoptotic signaling pathways are triggered. However, our study shows that beta-amyloid (Aβ...

Industrial wastewater is of global concern due to its severe effects on the environment. Compared with municipal wastewater, industrial wastewater generally contains the high concentration of toxic or no biodegradable pollutants. In recently year, scientific showed that scallop could filtration wastewater. Therefore, it was decided to determine the mechanistic toxicity of wastewater contained N...

The health risks associated with outdoor air pollution are of global concern. Atmospheric negatively affects a number key aspects human health, including the functioning respiratory, cardiovascular and central nervous systems, but many issues remain unresolved about relationship between atmospheric development course pathologies. review analyzes data from Russian foreign sources on effect parti...
