Description
Oxidative Stress – Vol. 1, authored by Jimenez-Garcia L.F. and published by Intech, is a detailed scientific resource examining the fundamental mechanisms of oxidative stress in biological systems. The book explores how reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated, their interactions with cellular components, and the resulting oxidative damage to proteins, lipids, and DNA.
This volume comprehensively covers the body’s natural antioxidant defense systems, including enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathways that protect cells from oxidative damage. It discusses the critical balance between oxidant and antioxidant forces and how disruption of this equilibrium contributes to various pathological conditions.
Ideal for researchers, scientists, and healthcare professionals, this non-fiction work provides evidence-based knowledge on oxidative stress implications in aging, inflammation, and chronic diseases. The systematic approach makes it an invaluable reference for understanding cellular biology and developing therapeutic strategies.
