Is Cadmium a Cause of Human Pancreatic Cancer?1
Little is known about the etiology of pancreatic cancer, which is an important cause of cancer mortality in developed countries. We hypothesize that exposure to cadmium is a cause of…

8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) or 8-hydroxyguanosine (8-OHG), a product of oxidized DNA or RNA, is a good marker of oxidative cellular damage. In this study, we measured the 8-OHdG/8-OHG levels in the…
Antioxidative properties of α-lipoic acid (LA) are widely investigated in different in vivo and in vitro models. The aim of this study was to examine whether LA attenuates oxidative stress…
Oxidative stress and neuronal energy depletion are characteristic biochemical hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It is therefore conceivable that pro-energetic and antioxidant drags such as α-lipoic acid might delay the…
