- Plants growing in their natural habitats are often challenged simultaneously by multiple stress factors, both abiotic and biotic.
- 8-Oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) is the major base damage in the genomic DNA by exposure to reactive oxygen species.
- Ozone is a photochemical oxidant pollutant that is an important public health hazard.
- The source of many diseases, including tumors, lies in an increased generation of reactive oxygen species resulting in oxidative stress.
- Increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a common denominative pathogenic mechanism underlying vascular and renal complications in diabetes mellitus.
- Enhanced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as H(2)O(2) and a failure in ROS removal by scavenging systems are hallmarks of several cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and hypertension.
- Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are of primary importance as they cause damage to lipids, proteins, and DNA either endogenously by cellular mechanism, or through exogenous exposure to environmental injury factors, including oxidation insult factors, such as tobacco smoke.
