Description
Oxidative stress is the state of a diminished capacity of a biological system to counteract an overproduction or invasion of reactive oxygen species and other radicals. This book presents recent advancements in the understanding of oxidative stress, the mechanisms of damage to cells and biomolecules, and pathological implications in disorders including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's Disease, cardiovascular disease, cell damage in HIV-AIDS, stroke, autism and
premature aging. The book is a comprehensive source of information describing new directions in diagnostics of oxidative stress, including novel detection methods of oxidative-stress biomarkers, prevention by antioxidants, and therapy using novel free radical scavenging agents and natural defense
systems.

Description
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the oxidative stress related mechanisms in biological systems and the involvement of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS), the damage of DNA, proteins, and lipids caused by oxidative stress, the protection of cells and tissues against free radicals, the relation of the oxidative stress to aging and human diseases including cancer and neurological disorders, and the development of new therapeutic approaches
to modulate oxidative stress. The current state-of-the-art methodologies including the development of sensors and biosensors for the detection of ROS/RNS and of biomarkers of oxidative stress are also discussed.
The book is organized in three overlapping parts, starting with general considerations of the oxidative stress, homeostasis pathways, and ROS mechanisms, followed by chapters discussing the involvement of ROS in particular diseases and concluding with analytical aspects of oxidative stress monitoring. The book provides a solid background on oxidative stress and ROS/RNS generation for novice learners while also offering scientists and practitioners already involved in this field a wealth of
information covering the most recent developments in the study of oxidative stress, the role of radical species, novel antioxidant therapies, and methods for assessing free radicals and oxidative stress.
