Therapeutic Strategy Details
Strategy ID: | S04 |
Strategy: | Anti-oxidative stress |
Other Terms: | oxidative stress |
Related Targets: | α-tocopherol: antioxidant |
Related Drugs: | Vitamin E |
Mechanism: | Disturbances in lipid metabolism lead to hepatic lipid accumulation, which affects different reactive oxygen species (ROS) generators, including mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and NADPH oxidase. Mitochondrial function adapts to NAFLD mainly through the downregulation of the electron transport chain (ETC) and the preserved or enhanced capacity of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, which stimulates ROS overproduction within different ETC components upstream of cytochrome c oxidase. |
