Thioredoxin reductase as a target enzyme for electrophilic anticancer drugs [PDF]
, 2011 Induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a common attribute of most cancer cells. One strategy for cancer cells to maneuver the increased and potentially toxic levels of ROS is to induce the expression of cellular antioxidants and ...
