Journal Article
Heavy metal induced oxidative stress & its possible reversal by chelation therapy.
TL;DR: A comprehensive account of recent developments in the research on heavy metal poisoning particularly the role of oxidative stress/free radicals in the toxic manifestation is attempted, an update about the recent strategies for the treatment with chelating agents and a possible beneficial role of antioxidants supplementation to achieve the optimum effects are attempted.

Chelation in Metal Intoxication
Swaran J.S. Flora,Vidhu Pachauri +1 more
TL;DR: This review provides an update of the existing chelating agents and the various strategies available for the treatment of heavy metals and metalloid intoxications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic-induced oxidative stress and its reversibility
TL;DR: This review summarizes the literature describing the molecular mechanisms of arsenic-induced oxidative stress, its relevant biomarkers, and its relation to various diseases, including preventive and therapeutic strategies and updates the reader on recent advances in chelation therapy and newer therapeutic strategies suggested to treat arsenic- induced oxidative damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural, chemical and biological aspects of antioxidants for strategies against metal and metalloid exposure.
TL;DR: The evidence is insufficient to recommend antioxidant supplements in subject with exposure to metals, but prospective, controlled clinical trials on safety and effectiveness of different therapeutic antioxidant strategies either individually or in combination with chelating agent are indispensable.
Journal Article
Role of free radicals and antioxidants in health and disease.
TL;DR: A special issue of Cellular and Molecular Biology covering the different topics related to role of free radicals in different human diseases/ poisonings and possible effects of antioxidants is published.
