Oxygen-derived free radicals, collectively termed reactive oxygen species (ROS), play
important roles in immunity, cell growth, and cell signaling. In excess, however, ROS are …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated as by-products of cellular metabolism,
primarily in the mitochondria. When cellular production of ROS overwhelms its antioxidant …

Reactive oxygen species have emerged as important molecules in cardiovascular function.
Recent work has shown that NAD (P) H oxidases are major sources of superoxide in …

Atherosclerosis is a chronic disease of the arterial wall where both innate and adaptive
immunoinflammatory mechanisms are involved. Inflammation is central at all stages of …

Recent studies have revealed that vascular cells can produce reactive oxygen species
(ROS) through NAD (P) H oxidase, which may be involved in vascular injury. However, the …

Providing a comprehensive review of reactions of oxidation for different classes of organic
compounds and polymers, and biological processes mediated by free radicals, Oxidation …

The importance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in vascular physiology and pathology is
becoming increasingly evident. All cell types in the vascular wall produce ROS derived from …

Emerging evidence indicates that reactive oxygen species, especially superoxide and
