Targeting Free Radicals in Oxidative Stress-Related Human Diseases.

TLDR
Metal chelation, based on the application of selective metal chelators or metal delivery, may induce neuroprotective signaling and represents a promising therapeutic strategy in cancer and AD.

Further SAR studies on natural template based neuroprotective molecules for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: In this article, a series of multifunctional cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitors were developed for the management of AD. But, the effect of substitution of phenylpiperazine ring with benzyl piperazine, increase in the linker length between FA and substituted phenyl ring, and replacement of indole moiety with tryptamine on this molecular template, three series of novel molecules were developed.

Sistema antioxidante enzimático en mujeres con diagnóstico de Atipias celulares y Neoplasia Intraepitelial Cervical grado I

Membrane Bound Peroxiredoxin-1 Serves as a Biomarker for <i>In Vivo</i> Detection of Sessile Serrated Adenomas

TL;DR: In this paper , the binding partner of the peptide ligand, peroxiredoxin-1 (Prdx1), was found to be overexpressed on the membrane of cells with the BRAFV600E mutation, and this effect was dependent on oxidative stress.

The profiles of durian (Durio zibethinus Murr.) shell phenolics and their antioxidant effects on H2O2-treated HepG2 cells as well as the metabolites and organ distribution in rats.

TL;DR: In this paper , a total of 17 compounds were identified in durian shell extract (DSE) by using an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with linear ion trap quadrupole Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap-MS/MS).

The Amyloid Hypothesis of Alzheimer's Disease: Progress and Problems on the Road to Therapeutics

TL;DR: It has been more than 10 years since it was first proposed that the neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD) may be caused by deposition of amyloid β-peptide in plaques in brain tissue and the rest of the disease process is proposed to result from an imbalance between Aβ production and Aβ clearance.

The effect of vitamin E and beta carotene on the incidence of lung cancer and other cancers in male smokers

TL;DR: No reduction in the incidence of lung cancer among male smokers is found after five to eight years of dietary supplementation with alpha-tocopherol or beta carotene, and this trial raises the possibility that these supplements may actually have harmful as well as beneficial effects.
