Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington disease, pose serious threats to human health, leading to substantial economic burdens on society and families. Despite extensive research, the underlying mechanisms driving these diseases remain incompletely understood, impeding effective diagnosis and treatment. In recent years, growing evidence has highlighted the crucial role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of various neurodegenerative diseases. However, there is still a lack of comprehensive reviews that systematically summarize the impact of mitochondrial oxidative stress on neurodegenerative diseases. This review aims to address this gap by summarizing the molecular mechanisms by which mitochondrial oxidative stress promotes the initiation and progression of neurodegenerative disorders. Furthermore, it discusses the potential of antioxidant-based therapeutic strategies for the treatment of these diseases. By shedding light on the role of mitochondrial oxidative stress in neurodegenerative diseases, this review not only serves as a valuable reference for further research on the disease mechanisms, but also offers novel perspectives for the treatment of these disorders.
期刊介绍:
With the rise in average human life expectancy, the impact of ageing and age-related diseases on our society has become increasingly significant. Ageing research is now a focal point for numerous laboratories, encompassing leaders in genetics, molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, and behavior. Ageing Research Reviews (ARR) serves as a cornerstone in this field, addressing emerging trends.
ARR aims to fill a substantial gap by providing critical reviews and viewpoints on evolving discoveries concerning the mechanisms of ageing and age-related diseases. The rapid progress in understanding the mechanisms controlling cellular proliferation, differentiation, and survival is unveiling new insights into the regulation of ageing. From telomerase to stem cells, and from energy to oxyradical metabolism, we are witnessing an exciting era in the multidisciplinary field of ageing research.
The journal explores the cellular and molecular foundations of interventions that extend lifespan, such as caloric restriction. It identifies the underpinnings of manipulations that extend lifespan, shedding light on novel approaches for preventing age-related diseases. ARR publishes articles on focused topics selected from the expansive field of ageing research, with a particular emphasis on the cellular and molecular mechanisms of the aging process. This includes age-related diseases like cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disorders. The journal also covers applications of basic ageing research to lifespan extension and disease prevention, offering a comprehensive platform for advancing our understanding of this critical field.
