Summary
Overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes oxidative stress, linked to various diseases. This study explores the role of ROS in physiological processes and disease onset.
Area of Science:
- Biochemistry
- Cell Biology
- Pathophysiology
Background:
- Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are crucial in regulating physiological processes.
- An imbalance, leading to oxidative stress, is implicated in numerous pathologies.
- Understanding ROS dynamics is key to addressing oxidative stress-related diseases.
