Many heart diseases are linked to oxidative stress, an overabundance of reactive oxygen species. The body reacts to reduce oxidative stress -- where the redox teeter-totter has gone too far up -- through production of endogenous antioxidants that reduce the reactive oxygen species.

Or, more accurately, it was a discovery born from a mistake.</p> <p dir="ltr">Researchers at ARMI, the University's <a href="https://www.armi.org.au/"> Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute</a>, were looking into unanswered questions regarding how muscle…

Damaged muscles don't just die, they regenerate themselves  Science Codex

Unfortunately, for those of us approaching or beyond 30 years of age - this is the point our muscles start to basically shrink away. You may think you've heard it all before, but a new review presents yet another reason we really should avoid slackin

Oxidative stress can be pathological. Now researchers report that the other end of the redox spectrum, reductive stress, is also pathological. Reductive stress causes pathological heart enlargement and diastolic dysfunction in a mouse model.
