Mitochondrial function and toxicity: role of the B vitamin family on mitochondrial energy metabolism
reported that the pretreatment with -glucans extracted from Ab presented protective effect in human hepatic cells against the genotoxic and mutagenic effects of carcinogenic compound (Benzo[a]Pyrene) ( In septic patients, MDA levels are elevated and may be correlated with clinical worsening ( In relation to the antioxidant defense, decreased levels of GSH and the inhibition of total antioxidant capacity are associated with organ failure and high mortality in sepsis ( Ab -treated animals showed increased TEAC and GSH levels in serum and peritoneal cavity, and also enhanced antioxidant capacity in heart in liver tissues, as well as increased MDA/TEAC ratios in serum, peritoneal cavity, heart and liver, suggesting that the protective effect of Ab in CLP model is at least in part due to its antioxidant property
