Higher eukaryotes' life is impossible without copper redox activity and, literally, every breath
we take biochemically demonstrates this. However, this dependence comes at a …

The development of microorganisms' colonies creates a three-dimensional structure named
biofilm, which helps microorganisms attach to the substratum to survive. The …

To clarify the role of mitochondrial electron transport chain (mtETC) in heavy‐metal‐induced
neurotoxicity, we studied action of Cd2+, Hg2+, and Cu2+ on cell viability, intracellular …

The cholestatic liver injury could occur in response to a variety of diseases or xenobiotics.
Although cholestasis primarily affects liver function, it has been well-known that other organs …

Copper (Cu), a transition metal, is an essential trace element in human and animal nutrition
at low concentration, but Cu has toxic effects on tissues and organs at high concentration …

Copper is an essential trace metal that is required for several important biological
processes, however, an excess of copper can be toxic to cells. Therefore, systemic and …

Copper (Cu) is essential for multiple biochemical processes, and copper sulphate (CuSO4)
is a pesticide used for repelling pests. Accidental or intentional intoxication can induce …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are formed in biological systems by partial reduction of
molecular oxygen. The essential role of ROS in maintaining physiological health may be …

Copper (Cu) is essential for a plethora of biological processes; however, its high redox
reactivity renders it potentially toxic. This study investigated the protective effect of curcumin …

Although colchicine (COL) has been used to treat gout for more than a thousand years, it
has been shrouded in a dark history for a long time due to its high toxicity, especially for the …
