Mitochondrial Intoxication explores the effects toxic molecules can
have upon mitochondrial physiology in the human body. Each chapter
is dedicated to a specific toxicant, including pollutants, food
additives, illicit and pharmaceutical drugs, and heavy metals. This
book considers the implications and impact these have upon
mitochondria and the diseases that can result from dysfunction and
impairment in the human body. Furthermore, the book provides an
overview of mitochondrial physiology and assesses the advances and
challenges in testing mitochondrial toxicity. Case studies
exploring mitochondrial intoxication in pregnancy and in the
geriatric population are also included. This is a comprehensive
reference on the main toxicants impacting mitochondria in the human
body, and the consequences this can have for health and disease.
