Neuroprotective effect of the standardised extract of Bacopa monnieri (BacoMind) in valproic acid model of autism spectrum disorder in rats.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the neuroprotective effect of Bacopa monnieri (BM) in experimental model of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Wistar rats and explore its mechanism of action.

The Impact of Oxidative Stress on Pediatrics Syndromes

TL;DR: In this article , a review of the literature showed that in some pathologies, such as fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, oxidative stress related to the intake of ethanol during pregnancy is a main etiological factor determining the associated clinical syndrome.

C17-alkanediyl and alkenediyl derivatives of oleanolic acid and methods of use thereof

TL;DR: In this article, C17-alkanediyi and aikenediyl derivatives of oleanolic acid, including those of the formula (I), were defined, and methods and intermediates useful for making the compounds and methods of using the compounds, for example, as antioxidant inflammation modulators, and compositions thereof were also provided.

Role of free radicals and catalytic metal ions in human disease: an overview.

TL;DR: The chapter discusses the metabolism of transition metals, such as iron and copper, and the chelation therapy that is an approach to site-specific antioxidant protection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitric oxide: a cytotoxic activated macrophage effector molecule.

TL;DR: The results suggest that nitric oxide is the precursor of nitrite/nitrate synthesized by cytotoxic activated macrophages and, via formation of iron-nitric oxide complexes and subsequent degradation of Iron-sulfur prosthetic groups, an effector molecule.

The mitochondrial death/life regulator in apoptosis and necrosis

TL;DR: The acquisition of the biochemical and ultrastructural features of apoptosis critically relies on the liberation of apoptogenic proteases or protease activators from mitochondria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroglial activation and neuroinflammation in the brain of patients with autism

TL;DR: It is indicated that innate neuroimmune reactions play a pathogenic role in an undefined proportion of autistic patients, suggesting that future therapies might involve modifying neuroglial responses in the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological effects of the superoxide radical.

TL;DR: Can the superoxide radical exert deleterious effects independent of participating with H2O2 in the production of the hydroxyl radical?
