Abstract:Background: Clozapine (CLZ) and risperidone (RIS) are drugs that have the ability to disrupt mitochondrial function. Also, these drugs increase the level of free radicals. Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a role in the etiology of various diseases. Replacement and treatment of defective mitochondria with healthy mitochondria have been considered. Mitochondrial therapy (mitotherapy) or exogenous mitochondria transplantation is a method that can be used to replace dysfunctional mitochondria with healthy mitochond… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
