Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant therapies for traumatic brain injury.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the most effective approach to interrupt posttraumatic oxidative brain damage after TBI might involve the combined treatment with mechanistically complementary antioxidants that simultaneously scavenge LP-initiating free radicals, inhibit LP propagation, and lastly remove neurotoxic LP byproducts.
Journal ArticleDOI

The systemic iron-regulatory proteins hepcidin and ferroportin are reduced in the brain in Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the reduction in ferroportin levels are likely associated with cerebral ischaemia, inflammation, the loss of neurons due to the well-characterised protein misfolding, senile plaque formation and possibly the ageing process itself.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative proteomics analysis of differential protein expression and oxidative modification of specific proteins in the brains of old mice.

TL;DR: Several of the up-regulated and oxidized proteins in the brains of old mice identified in this report are known to be oxidized in neurodegenerative diseases as well, suggesting that these proteins may be particularly susceptible to processes associated with neurodegenersation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipid peroxidation-derived reactive aldehydes directly and differentially impair spinal cord and brain mitochondrial function.

TL;DR: The results of this study show that 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal and acrolein can directly and differentially impair spinal cord and brain mitochondrial function, and that the targets for the toxic effects of aldehydes appear to include pyruvate dehydrogenase and complex I-associated proteins.
