Cardiac and vascular diseases are often associated with increased oxidative stress and
inflammation, and both may contribute to the disease progression. However, successful …

The cellular metabolism of oxygen generates potentially deleterious reactive oxygen
species, including superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical. Under normal …

Inflammation triggered by oxidative stress is the cause of much, perhaps even most, chronic
human disease including human aging. The oxidative stress originates mainly in …

ROS are a group of small reactive molecules that play critical roles in the regulation of
various cell functions and biological processes. In the vascular system, physiological levels …
