KIOM-4 Protects against Oxidative Stress-Induced Mitochondrial Damage in Pancreatic β-cells via Its Antioxidant Effects
The protective effect of KIOM-4, a mixture of plant extracts, was examined against streptozotocin (STZ)-induced mitochondrial oxidative stress in rat pancreatic β-cells (RINm5F). KIOM-4 scavenged superoxide and hydroxyl radicals generated by xanthine/xanthine oxidase and Fenton reaction (FeSO4/H2O2)...
