Molecular photoswitches enable dynamic control of processes with high spatiotemporal
precision, using light as external stimulus, and hence are ideal tools for different research …

Heavy metals, which have widespread environmental distribution and originate from natural
and anthropogenic sources, are common environmental pollutants. In recent decades, their …

Liver diseases are caused by different etiological agents, mainly alcohol consumption,
viruses, drug intoxication or malnutrition. Frequently, liver diseases are initiated by oxidative …

Which scientist has never heard of glutathione (GSH)? This well-known low-molecular-
weight tripeptide is perhaps the most famous natural antioxidant. However, the interest in …

Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide, which has many biological roles including protection
against reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. The primary goal of this paper is to …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are an unenviable part of aerobic life. Their steady-state
concentration is a balance between production and elimination providing certain steady …

There is a growing global concern about the health implications of xenobiotics, which have
harmful effects to both humans and wildlife. Among them, teleost fish are known as very …

The presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in living organisms was described more
than 60 years ago and virtually immediately it was suggested that ROS were involved in …

Mitochondria are the primary intracellular site of oxygen consumption and the major source
of reactive oxygen species (ROS), most of them originating from the mitochondrial …

Glutathione (GSH), often referred to as “the master antioxidant,” participates not only in
antioxidant defense systems, but many metabolic processes, and therefore its role cannot be …
