Fundamental Aspects of Reactive Oxygen Species, or What's the Matter with Oxygen?
Abstract
ABSTRACT: A byproduct of normal aerobic metabolism is the generation of dangerously reactive intermediates of the reduction of O 2. These include O 2−, H 2 O 2, and HO · and arise because of the predisposition of O 2 for univalent reductions. These reactive oxygen species (ROS), and others that they can engender, threaten all cellular macromolecules, and defenses are needed. Among those known to date are: superoxide dismutases to convert O 2− into O 2+ H 2 O 2; catalases to dismute H 2 O 2 into O 2+ H 2 O; and peroxidases to reduce H 2 O 2 into 2H 2 O) and to reduce ROOH into ROH and H 2 O. These defenses are aided by enzymes that repair or recycle oxidatively damaged nucleic acids and proteins. A role for such oxidative damage in aging and neurodegenerative diseases is well supported.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
