• Oxidative Stress and Inflammation: What Polyphenols Can Do for Us? (2016, background): “The excessive production of ROS may cause tissue injury that may lead to the inflammatory process [43].”
• Elderberry: Botany, Horticulture, Potential (2010, background): “Recent works linking an antioxidant-rich diet to disease prevention (Prior 2003; Willcox et al. 2004; Scalbert et al. 2005; Zafra-Stone et al. 2007; Seeram 2008), along with the versatility of elderberry as a crop, a food, and a medicine, have generated a renewed interest in this genus.”
• Toxicity of lead: A review with recent updates (2012, background): “…are taken through the diet or in the form of supplements to maintain the homeostasis between free radicals and antioxidants and thus prevent various deleterious effects, like heavy metal toxicity, inflammation, cancer, aging, cardiovascular and brain disorders (Willcox et al., 2004; Pietta, 2000).”
• Postharvest Biology and Technology for Preserving Fruit Quality (2010, background): “Thus, problems leading to cellular aging and the previously mentioned diseases arise only when the balance between free radicals and antioxidant defense systems tilts to the side of free radicals (Yeum et al., 2004; Willcox et al., 2004; Tsao and Akhtar, 2005).”
• Mechanisms of nanotoxicity: Generation of reactive oxygen species (2014, background): “idants may play an important role in limiting oxidative damage and reducing the risk of numerous chronic diseases related to advancing age [143,144].”
• Emerging mechanisms and disease relevance of ferroptosis (2020, background): “Early studies showed that antioxidants may protect against cancer, because ROS and other free radicals may induce DNA damage and promote tumorigenesis [50,51].”
• Flavonoids as anti-inflammatory agents: implications in cancer and cardiovascular disease (2009, background): “The increased production of reactive oxygen species accompany most forms of tissue injury, which have been implicated in a multitude of disease states ranging from inflammatory injury to myocardial infarction and cancer [25].”
• Oxidative Stress Resistance in Deinococcus radiodurans (2011, background): “A more rapid aging process (progeria) and diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (251, 493, 575) and Parkinson’s disease (401) are also clearly associated with oxidative stress (655).”
• Oxidative Stress: Harms and Benefits for Human Health (2017, background): “For instance, tobacco smoking, environmental pollutants, and chronic inflammation are sources of oxidative DNA damage that could contribute to tumor onset [14, 17, 29].”
