... dysfunction is a pathogenic mediator of oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of pre-eclampsia. We hypothesize that mitochondrial-targeted antioxidants may restrain production of ROS-mediated deleterious redox signalling pathways. If our hypothesis proves correct, therapeutic strategies directly targeting...

In the present study, we have measured plasma NPBI, various other iron parameters and antioxidants in 28 cancer patients undergoing cisplatin-based chemotherapy at various time points before and during chemotherapy. No NPBI was present prior to therapy, but within 1–4 days following the first administration...
