Oxidative Stress Research Articles

Oxidative stress is essentially an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the body's ability to neutralize or detoxify their harmful effects by neutralization by antioxidants. Oxidative stress is likely to be involved in the development of age-related cancer. Reactive species produced by oxidative stress can directly damage DNA and are therefore mutagenic.

Oxidative stress has been defined as harmful because free oxygen radicals attack biological molecules such as lipids, proteins and DNA. However, oxidative stress also has a useful role in physiological adaptation and in regulating the transduction of the intracellular signal. Therefore, a more useful definition of oxidative stress may be "a state where oxidative forces overtake antioxidant systems due to the loss of balance between them".
