The increase in levels of active oxygen species or free radicals known as oxidative stress induces lesions that impair or kill cells and initiate disease and degenerative processes such as ageing, carcinogenesis and immunodeficiencies. Protective mechanisms have been uncovered in both eukaryotes and prokataryotes, and are being studied at a molecular level assisting the search for ways of reducing or avoiding oxidative stress.

Very good. No dust jacket. no dust jacket, owner's name on FFEP. 890 p., illustrations, diagrams, bibliography, index. Although the importance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to biological systems has been recognized for some time, their significance to biological, medical, and agricultural problems has become more apparent with the advent and application of molecular genetics methods. ROS can react with DNA, proteins, and lipids to cause mutations, protein destruction, and peroxidation of membrane lipids, which in turn may lead to diseases and degenerative processes such as aging, immunodeficiencies, neurologic disorders, and carcinogenesis in animals; and, in plants, to membrane leakage, senescence, chlorophyll destruction, and impaired photosynthetic capacity. Twenty-six contributions provide reviews and discussion of current research.
