There is a vast literature on the generation and effects of reactive oxygen species in biological systems, both in relation to damage they cause and their involvement in cell regulatory and signaling ...
Another key consideration for ROS chemistry and biology is the subcellular location where a particular metabolite is generated, as microenvironments can dictate what targets these ROS molecules will ...
Paul Wentworth Jr. and his colleagues were studying antibodies when a run-in with oxygen chemistry took them down a completely unexpected path. That diversion led to evidence suggesting that the human ...
