Description
This book provides a comprehensive exploration of oxidative stress, delving into its historical context and examining its impact on various physiological processes. The introduction sets the stage, followed by an in-depth analysis of oxidative stress, including the generation of free radicals and the roles of ERO and ERN. The book then systematically explores pathologies associated with oxidative stress, ranging from general considerations to specific conditions such as cardiovascular illnesses, neurodegenerative diseases, and the link between oxidative stress and cancer. Transduction of reactive oxygen species, oxidative stress biomarkers, and the classification and origins of antioxidants are thoroughly discussed, providing a nuanced understanding. The detailed examination of phenolic compounds, their classification, and mechanisms of action adds depth to the discussion. The book concludes with a comprehensive summary, tying together key findings and insights presented throughout. The inclusion of a robust reference section enhances the book's credibility, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and practitioners in the field.Commander
