Potential Role of Sulfur-Containing Antioxidant Systems in Highly Oxidative Environments

All forms of life maintain a reducing environment (homeostasis) within their cells. Perturbations in the normal redox state can lead to an oxidative environment which has deleterious effects, especially in health. In biological systems, metabolic activities are dependent mainly on mitochondrial oxid...
