Abstract: Glaucoma is characterized by axonal degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and apoptotic death of their cell bodies. Lowering intraocular pressure is currently the only way to treat glaucoma, but it is often insufficient to… read more here.

Abstract: We studied the role of the delta, micro, and kappa opioid receptor (OR) subtypes in the cardioprotective effect of chronic continuous normobaric hypoxia (CNH) in the model of acute anoxia-reoxygenation of isolated cardiomyocytes. Adaptation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10020503
Abstract: Idebenone is a ubiquinone short-chain synthetic analog with antioxidant properties, which is believed to restore mitochondrial ATP synthesis. As such, idebenone is investigated in numerous clinical trials for diseases of mitochondrial aetiology and it is… read more here.
