Aging, Oxidative Stress and Antioxidants

Aging is an extremely complex and multifactorial process that proceeds to the gradual dete‐ rioration in functions. It usually manifest after maturity and leads to disability and death. Traditionally researchers focused primarily on understanding how physiological functions decline with the increasing age; almost no research was dedicated to investigation of causes or methods of aging intervent...

Antioxidants, oxidative stress, and degenerative neurological disorders.

Recently, clinical trials of several neurodegenerative diseases have increasingly targeted the evaluation of the effectiveness of various antioxidants. The results so far are encouraging but variable and thus confusing. Rationale for the possible clinical effectiveness of antioxidants in several degenerative conditions has arisen out of the many years of basic science generally showing that rea...

Diabetes, oxidative stress, and antioxidants: a review.

Increasing evidence in both experimental and clinical studies suggests that oxidative stress plays a major role in the pathogenesis of both types of diabetes mellitus. Free radicals are formed disproportionately in diabetes by glucose oxidation, nonenzymatic glycation of proteins, and the subsequent oxidative degradation of glycated proteins. Abnormally high levels of free radicals and the simu...
