Oxidative stress and ROS signalling

Pathway139 papers17 findingsGO 0006979

Studies in zebrafish, mice, worms and mammalian cells show various compounds reduce oxidative stress and ROS signalling, while klf-1 or DHA deficiency promote it. Reviews link this pathway to human age-related macular degeneration, mitochondrial dysfunction and genomic instability.
