Scientists in this field often joke," If you don't have a mechanism, say it's ROS." Seemingly
connected to every biological process ever described, reactive oxygen species (ROS) have …

It has been established that oxidative stress, defined as the condition in which the sum of
free radicals in a cell exceeds the antioxidant capacity of the cell, contributes to the …

▪ Abstract This review describes the three mammalian glutathione transferase (GST)
families, namely cytosolic, mitochondrial, and microsomal GST, the latter now designated …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are formed during incomplete combustion.
Domestic wood burning and road traffic are the major sources of PAHs in Sweden. In …

BACKGROUND: The cytosolic glutathione transferases (GSTs) comprise a super family of
proteins that can be categorized into multiple classes with a mixture of highly specific and …

Essential oils and their volatile constituents are used widely to prevent and treat human
disease. The possible role and mode of action of these natural products is discussed with …

Abstract Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are a family of Phase II detoxification enzymes
that catalyse the conjugation of glutathione (GSH) to a wide variety of endogenous and …

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are phase II detoxifying enzymes involved in the
maintenance of cell integrity, oxidative stress and protection against DNA damage by …

Oxidative stress causes damage to multiple cellular components such as DNA, proteins, and
lipids, and is implicated in various human diseases including cancer, neurodegeneration …

Two supergene families encode proteins with glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity: the
family of soluble enzymes comprises at least 16 genes; the separate family of microsomal …
