Abstract: Lead (Pb2+) is a developmental neurotoxicant that causes lifelong cognitive dysfunctions. In particular, Pb2+-induced frontoexecutive dysfunctions emerge later in life when the cortex is fully myelinated, thereby permitting the ability to assess the extent to… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND Protein malnutrition in childhood predisposes individuals to vascular and pancreatic endocrine dysfunction, thus increasing the risk of diabetes and hypertension. Because taurine may reduce cardiometabolic risk, we hypothesized that taurine treatment has a beneficial… read more here.

Abstract: Objective Retinitis pigmentosa causes progressive photoreceptor degeneration in the subjects while no clinical therapy exists. The present study sought to evaluate the potential protective effects of taurine on a pharmacologically induced RP animal model. Methods… read more here.
