Mitochondria play an important role in energy ( ATP ) production through oxidative phosphorylation pathway and the regulation of cell death by apoptosis. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathophysiology of a number of neurodegenerative diseases. Glaucoma as a neurodegenerative disorder, mitochondrial oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of glaucoma and the damage of RGCs has received close attention in recent years. ln this article, we reviewed the current evidences and recent advances in the relationship between mitochondrial oxidative stress and the RGCs apoptosis.

Objective To study the influence of different dosages of atorvastatin in acute coronary syndrome female patients on vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP).Methods 60 female cases of ACS patients were divided into A and B group.30 patients in the A group were given atorvastatin 20mg per night,while the other 30 patients in the B group were taken 40mg per night.The patients were followed four weeks by evaluating serum VEGF and BNP concentration.Results After treatment for four weeks,the patients in the two groups showed significant reduction in VEGF and BNP,however,the therapeutic group showed significant difference between the two groups.Additionally,the B group further showed significant reduction in VEGF and BNP.Conclusion Using high-dose atorvastatin lowers VEGF and BNP significantly,which could reduce female cardiovascμlar events.

Mitochondrial oxidative stress has been recognized as a preliminary and critical factor that aggravates the pathological cascade of Alzheimer's disease, which induces the production of β-amyloid protein, upregulates the expression of phosphorylated tau protein and triggers oxidative damage to lipids, proteins and mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid. Central neurons are more vulnerable to oxidative stress than non-neuronal cells due to their high oxygen demand, abundant unsaturated fatty acids and antioxidant enzymes deficiency. On this account, this review introduces the causes of mitochondrial oxidative stress, and analyzes the important role of mitochondrial oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Meanwhile, the review focuses on the design and intervention strategies of drug delivery systems targeting mitochondrial oxidative stress in neurons, aiming to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
