TLDR
The data presented here for human serum albumin demonstrate the utility of mass spectrometry in studying protein alterations and may be helpful in assessing the ability of proteins to act as antioxidants in biological systems which are subject to oxidant stress as in cases of inflammation and in the aging process.

Characterization of drugs as antioxidant prophylactics

TL;DR: The current evidence to support the notion that drugs for a particular therapeutic category might possess useful antioxidant capacity hence minimising tissue injury due to free radicals is examined.

Age-related change in redox state of human serum albumin.

TL;DR: In healthy elderly subjects, f−(HMA) was significantly lower than in healthy young male subjects, indicating that HSA in the elderly becomes more oxidized than in the young subjects, thus securing a certain redox buffer capacity with age.

Effect of Oxidative Stress on the Structure and Function of Human Serum Albumin

TL;DR: Mild oxidation of HSA has no detectable effect on the binding of drugs to site I in subdomain IIA and both the ligand binding property of site II and the esterase–like activity of oxidized HSAs are decreased, most probably due to conformational changes in sub domain IIIA.

Intravenous iron administration induces oxidation of serum albumin in hemodialysis patients.

TL;DR: The results of this study indicate that the HPLC analysis of serum albumin represents a potentially useful method for the quantitative and qualitative evaluation of oxidative stress in HD patients, and strongly suggest the possibility that oxidative stress, generated by IVIR, enhances the oxidation of albumin in those patients.

Post-translational Modifications and Mass Spectrometry Detection

TL;DR: This review analyzed all the PTM data introduced in the Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) and the literature published in the last three years to ascertain the state of the art in mass spectrometry and proteomics methodologies for the study of PTMs.
