Taurine supplementation may prove to be a safe and convenient method to reverse high blood cholesterol and the associated rise in atherosclerosis. Although human studies are limited, experiments using animal models provide extensive proof of the hypo

There is strong evidence that the retina degenerates with age. Electroretinogram deficits and photoreceptor cell death and structural abnormalities have been observed in both animal and human studies of aging. The mechanism behind this phenomenon is

Oral taurine treatment has been studied extensively as a hypotensive agent. Several rat models of hypertension have been used to prove that dietary taurine supplementation can alleviate high blood pressure, among other cardiovascular problems. Experi

The amino acid, taurine, is an important nutrient found in very high concentration in excitable tissue. Cellular depletion of taurine has been linked to developmental defects, retinal damage, immunodeficiency, impaired cellular growth and the develop
The underlying philosophy of these two symposia on taurine remains the same as all those that have been held previously: the best way to remain current in the subject matter is to talk directly with the investigators at the forefront of the field. Th
The first Taurine Symposium organized by Dr. Ryan Huxtable and the late Dr. Andre Barbeau was held in Tucson, Arizona, in 1975. Since that auspici ous event, nine international symposia on the role of taurine in biology have taken place. The locati
The Taurine Symposium-'Taurine: Beginning the 21''Century'- was held September 20-23, 2002, on the beautiful island of Kauai in Hawaii. The headquarters of the meeting was the Radisson Kauai Beach Resort. This international meeting was attending by a

It has been previously demonstrated that taurine inhibits the phosphorylation of an ≈20K apparent molecular weight protein present in the mitochondrial fraction of the rat retina (Lombardini, 1991). In the present studies, various analogues of taur

In a variety of mammalian species it has been established that taurine is a necessary component of the visual system, however, the exact mechanism(s) as to the function of taurine is(are) elusive. Additionally, taurine is speculated to be a membrane
