Request a sales quoteMitochondrial 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.
- Features a wide range of toxicants and their effects on mitochondrial physiology
- Covers molecular markers of mitochondrial intoxication
- Includes case studies that illustrate the health impacts of toxicity upon mitochondria
- Considers future directions regarding the study of mitochondrial intoxication

Dr Oliveira PhD earned his bachelor’s degree in Biological Sciences at Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) in 2005, followed by a Master’s and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the same institution. His research focuses on the neuroprotection mediated by natural molecules and involves studies on mitochondrial physiology, redox biology, bioenergetics, and inflammation in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
Dr Oliveira has published numerous articles on peer-reviewed Journals, including Molecular Neurobiology, Chemico-Biological Interactions, Biotechnology Advances, and Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity. He has also edited a book on the effects of plant molecules on the mitochondria Mitochondrial Physiology and Vegetal Molecules: Therapeutic Potential of Natural Compounds on Mitochondrial Health and a book on the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in both neurological disturbances and intoxication Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Nanotherapeutics: Aging, Diseases, and Nanotechnology-Related Strategies in Mitochondrial Medicine.
