maternal smoking has been recognized as a common cause of low birth weight, preterm birth and the decrease of gestational age period. unfortunately, there is an increasing interest within public especially woman in iran in the tobacco products consumption. on the other hand, the deleterious effect of maternal smoking on human fetus in pregnancy period especially in the first trimester encourage...

previous studies demonstrated that cse induces oxidative stress and its consequences on isolated mitochondria obtained from lung, heart and brain which may provide insight into the role of cse in human health and disease. the present study was carried out to further characterize and compare toxic effect of cse extract on isolated mitochondria obtained from either a directly contacting tissue (i...

aim : the aim of this study was to evaluate and compare three available methods for mitochondrial isolation from a human cell line to predict the best method for each probable application.   background : organelle isolation is gaining importance in experimental laboratory settings. mitochondrial dysfunction may affect tumorgenesis process. there are some evidences that transplantation of health...

Considerable evidence suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to the toxicity of uranyl acetate (UA), a soluble salt of depleted uranium (DU). We examined the ability of the two antioxidants, beta-glucan and butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT), to prevent UA-induced mitochondrial dysfunction using rat-isolated kidney mitochondria. Beta-glucan (150 nM) and BHT (20 nM) attenuated UA-indu...
