Redox balance and cardioprotection [PDF]
Basic Research in Cardiology, 2013 Coronary artery disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the Western countries. Acute myocardial infarction is a serious and often lethal consequence of coronary artery disease, resulting in contractile dysfunction and cell death. It is well known that unbalanced and high steady state levels of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS ...

Redox balance in Cystic Fibrosis [PDF]
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2014 The homeostatic balance between oxidants and antioxidants in biological systems is known as redox balance, and is regulated by complex processes. Redox balance regulates many of the known cellular pathways and disease processes. The dysregulation of redox balance can lead to acute or long-term oxidative or reductive stresses that are associated with ...

Pyroptosis and Redox Balance in Kidney Diseases
Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2021 Significance: Kidney diseases remain a worldwide public health problem resulting in millions of deaths each year; they are characterized by progressive destruction of renal function by sustained inflammation. Pyroptosis is a lytic type of programmed cell death involved in inflammation, as well as a key fibrotic ...

Polyol pathway and redox balance in diabetes
Pharmacological Research, 2022 Diabetes is a major public health disease that is globally approaching epidemic proportions. One of the major causes of type 2 diabetes is either a defect in insulin secretion or insulin action which is usually caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Metabolic Regulation of Redox Balance in Cancer [PDF]
Cancers, 2019 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are chemically active free radicals produced by partial reduction of oxygen that can activate discrete signaling pathways or disrupt redox homeostasis depending on their concentration. ROS interacts with biomolecules, including DNA, and can cause mutations that can transform normal cells into cancer cells.

Cartilage Redox Balance Is Influenced by Substrate Availability. [PDF]
CartilagePurpose The mechanobiological response of cartilage redox balance might change in response to altered substrate availability. The purpose of this study is to investigate effects of key metabolic substrates (glucose, glutamine, and oxygen) on the mechanoresponsiveness of cartilage redox balance using a label-free

Targeting the Redox Balance in Inflammatory Skin Conditions [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can be both beneficial and deleterious. Under normal physiological conditions, ROS production is tightly regulated, and ROS participate in both pathogen defense and cellular signaling. However, insufficient ROS detoxification or ROS overproduction generates oxidative stress, resulting in cellular damage.
