mitochondria test
It is well known that mitochondria play a key role in satisfying the energy supply of multiple cellular processes. In addition, mitochondrial stress is associated with a variety of neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, performing mitochondrial stress assays is very necessary. Based on over 10 years of experience in neuroscience, Creative Biolabs has successfully established a mitochondrial stress detection platform. With our advanced platform and professional team, Creative Biolabs provides customized mitochondrial stress assay services to global customers to solve the challenges of your mitochondrial projects.
Importance of Mitochondrial Stress
Mitochondrial stress generally refers to mitochondrial oxidative stress (MOS). MOS has been implicated in many neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) pathological mechanisms. Scientists have established links between MOS and various NDs, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD), Alzheimer’s disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and multiple sclerosis (MS). Furthermore, MOS adversely affects neuronal survival, which lays the foundation for neurodegeneration. Therefore, at present, inhibition of MOS by mitochondria-targeted antioxidants is considered to be an attractive strategy for the treatment of various NDs.
