Many different mechanisms have been suggested for the oxidative lipid fragmentations that produce biologically active aldehydes such as 4-hydroxynon-2-enal (HNE), oxononanoyl phosphatidylcholine ...

The UAB Center for Free Radical Biology (CFRB) was established in 1996 at a time when ‘free radical biology’ was emerging as a major research area with the potential to influence our understanding of ...

The key mechanism that ensures hepatoprotection appears to be free radical scavenging. Anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic properties have also been documented. Clinical trials have shown that ...

may provide a mechanism that could link these pathways. Figure 1: A schematic of how ketamine may lead to an overall excitation in the cortex. The idea that free radical production is involved in ...

Free radicals — oxygen atoms with an additional ... The scientists' next steps are to see how widely shared this mechanism is across tardigrade species.
