Biochem/physiol Actions
MitoTEMPO is a mitochondrially targeted antioxidant, a specific scavenger of mitochondrial superoxide.
MitoTEMPO is a mitochondrially targeted antioxidant, a specific scavenger of mitochondrial superoxide. MitoTEMPO is a combination of the antioxidant piperidine nitroxide TEMPO with the lipophilic cation triphenylphosphonium, giving MitoTEMPO the ability to pass through lipid bilayers with ease and accumulate several hundred-fold in mitochondria. Mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress contribute to a variety of disorders involving cardiovascular, kidney, liver disorders, Parkinson′s and Alzheimer′s disease.
Hemolysin expressing UPEC strains have been associated with severe advanced kidney pathologies, such as cystitis and pyelonephritis, which are associated with an inflammatory response. Macrophages play an important role in regulating an inflammatory response during a urinary tract infection. We
