Oxidative Stress: Molecular Mechanisms, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets
Oxidative stress occurs when the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production overwhelms the ROS scavenging, which lead to genomic instability, epigenetic regulation, proteostasis imbalance, and lipid peroxidation, subsequently causing the occurrence and development of numerous diseases. ABSTRACT Although the physiological level of reactive oxygen species (
