Protein oxidation is increasingly recognised as an important modulator of biochemical
pathways controlling both physiological and pathological processes. While much attention …

Echinoderms, an ancient and very successful phylum of marine invertebrates, play a central
role in the maintenance of ecosystem integrity and are constantly exposed to environmental …

Research programmes on oxidative stress and hormesis are wide ranging. Biomedical and
toxicological sciences have traditionally centralised such research, but in the last years we …

The Echinodermata are an ancient phylum of benthic marine invertebrates with a dispersal-
stage planktonic larva. These animals have innate immune systems characterized initially by …

Abstract Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2NPs) are one of the most widespread-
engineered particles in use for drug delivery, cosmetics and electronics. However, TiO2NP …

The effects of ocean acidification, a major anthropogenic impact on marine life, have been
mainly investigated in laboratory/mesocosm experiments. We used the CO 2 vents at Ischia …

Here we aim to describe each factor that leads to skin aging and describe their mechanisms.
A PubMed database searches (from January 2004 to March 2014) using aging and skin as …

Human aging is a gradual and adaptive process characterized by a decrease in the
homeostatic response, leading to biochemical and molecular changes that are driven by …

Cardiac dysfunction is often observed in patients with cancer also representing a serious
problem limiting chemotherapeutic intervention and even patient survival. In view of the …

Despite numerous aging studies, the relationship between oxidative stress, aging, and
decline in functions such as locomotion is still debated. Insects offer a promising model for …
