Description : The fine balance in reactive species (RS) levels inside the cell, or redox homeostasis, is crucial for normal life. RS are molecules such as hydroxyl, superoxide, and others whose reaction rates are typically high. Further, RS are now accepted as the molecular mediators of stresses on cells. RS are also implicated in many diseases including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases.In contrast to the popular view that RS are deleterious, this book discusses desirable outcomes from the manipulation of reactive species levels in the cells. The discoveries include a fundamental approach to overcome major limitations with traditional oxygen
