Oxidative stress, termed as an imbalance between production and elimination of reactive oxygen species (ROS) leading to plural oxidative modifications of basic and regulatory processes, can be caused in different ways. Increased steady-state ROS levels can be promoted by drug metabolism, overexpression of ROS-producing enzymes, or ionizing radiation, as well as due to deficiency of antioxidant ...
متن کاملOxidative stress in neurological diseases: cause or effect?
Oxidative stress is a dynamic and complex situation in which there is an imbalance between the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the availability and action of antioxidants. The central nervous system (CNS) consumes large amounts of oxygen to carry out physiological processes, and this metabolism process generates abundant free radicals. Certain factors make the CNS susceptible to...
متن کاملOxidative Stress in the Pathogenesis of Colorectal Cancer: Cause or Consequence?
There is a growing support for the concept that reactive oxygen species, which are known to be implicated in a range of diseases, may be important progenitors in carcinogenesis, including colorectal cancer (CRC). CRC is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with the highest incidence rates in western countries. Sporadic human CRC may be attributable to various environmental and lifestyle fa...

متن کاملOxidative Stress and Metabolic Syndrome: Cause or Consequence of Alzheimer's Disease?
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a major neurodegenerative disease affecting the elderly. Clinically, it is characterized by a progressive loss of memory and cognitive function. Neuropathologically, it is characterized by the presence of extracellular β-amyloid (Aβ) deposited as neuritic plaques (NP) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) made of abnormal and hyperphosphorylated tau protein. These lesion...
