TLDR
Evidence is provided to consider ageing as a process in which lipid-radical cycles gradually substitute for lipid peroxidation, and to consider endogenous aldehydes as the major initiators of the metabolic disorders.

Role of methylglyoxal in Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: Methylglyoxal, a reactive intermediate of cellular metabolism, is the most potent precursor of AGEs and is strictly correlated with an increase of oxidative stress in Alzheimer's disease.

Mechanisms for countering oxidative stress and damage in retinal pigment epithelium.

TL;DR: The major functions of RPE cells are discussed with an emphasis on the oxidative challenges these cells encounter and the endogenous antioxidant mechanisms employed to neutralize the deleterious effects that such stresses can elicit if left unchecked.

Free Radicals in the Physiological Control of Cell Function

Wulf Dröge
TL;DR: There is growing evidence that aging involves, in addition, progressive changes in free radical-mediated regulatory processes that result in altered gene expression.

Aging: A Theory Based on Free Radical and Radiation Chemistry

TL;DR: It seems possible that one factor in aging may be related to deleterious side attacks of free radicals (which are normally produced in the course of cellular metabolism) on cell constituents.

Chemistry and biochemistry of 4-hydroxynonenal, malonaldehyde and related aldehydes.

TL;DR: This review provides a comprehensive summary on the chemical properties of 4-hydroxyalkenals and malonaldehyde, the mechanisms of their formation and their occurrence in biological systems and methods for their determination, as well as the many types of biological activities described so far.

superoxide production blocks three pathways of hyperglycaemic damage

TL;DR: This paper showed that hyperglycaemia increases the production of reactive oxygen species inside cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells and that this increase in reactive oxygen can be prevented by an inhibitor of electron transport chain complex II, an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation, by uncoupling protein-1 and by manganese superoxide dismutase.

The Free Radical Theory of Aging Matures

TL;DR: The status of the free radical theory of aging is reviewed, by categorizing the literature in terms of the various types of experiments that have been performed, which include phenomenological measurements of age-associated oxidative stress, interspecies comparisons, dietary restriction, and the ongoing elucidation of the role of active oxygen in biology.
