metformin and Mitochondrial Diseases

metformin has been researched along with Mitochondrial Diseases in 11 studies

Metformin: A biguanide hypoglycemic agent used in the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus not responding to dietary modification. Metformin improves glycemic control by improving insulin sensitivity and decreasing intestinal absorption of glucose. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p289)
metformin : A member of the class of guanidines that is biguanide the carrying two methyl substituents at position 1.

Mitochondrial Diseases: Diseases caused by abnormal function of the MITOCHONDRIA. They may be caused by mutations, acquired or inherited, in mitochondrial DNA or in nuclear genes that code for mitochondrial components. They may also be the result of acquired mitochondria dysfunction due to adverse effects of drugs, infections, or other environmental causes.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Metformin treatment clearly rescued these cells from rotenone-mediated cell death via the reduction of the cytosolic and mitochondrial levels of reactive oxygen species and restoration of mitochondrial function."1.62Metformin attenuates rotenone-induced oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage via the AKT/Nrf2 pathway. ( Bhurtel, S; Choi, DY; Katila, N; Park, PH, 2021)
