Abstract

Background

The emergence of therapeutic innovations has been constant throughout the history of medicine. However, the lack of a scientific approach has made most of them inconsistent with evidence-based medicine. Homeopathy is a multifactorial science with unlimited applications and study possibilities. Supported by governmental and political issues, the Galtonian eugenics concepts, and new physiology-endocrine insights, biotypology concepts have evolved as a predicted therapeutic based on morphology. Mitochondria are central organelles in cellular metabolism and key determinants of cell miasma. In the pursuit of animal welfare, the close relationship between humans and dogs justifies expanding the homeopathic therapeutic arsenal from which veterinary medicine can benefit.

Materials and Methods

Utilizing a bibliographical review, this article aims to present a review of biotypology ideas in humans and adapt them to animals, and their relations with the Hahnemann miasmas. A new model for cell biotypology is proposed.

Results

Mitochondrial oxidative stress levels can disrupt cell metabolism balance. Resilient and adaptative physiological processes are crucial for exonerative conditions and psora homeostasis. Free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) can alter mitochondrial permeability and immune response in sycosis. Obesity is related to oxidative stress and a sharp decrease in cell respiration and ATP generation. Uninterrupted stress can generate an imbalance in mitochondrial redox, reducing physiological and immune functions in syphilis.

Conclusion

Joining genetic and psycho-neuro-endocrine-physiology-morphology studies in homeopathy can help find the constitutional simillimum to unknown dogs, such as stray or shelter ones. The similia principle can be applied to cell physiological states, enabling a miasma grading and thus favoring therapeutics for any patient.
