Oxygen Radical-Induced Lipid Peroxidation

Molecular classification
Other
01

Overview

Oxygen radical-induced lipid peroxidation refers to the oxidative degradation of lipids, primarily polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), in biological membranes due to attack by reactive oxygen species (ROS). This process is a self-propagating chain reaction that results in significant cellular damage and plays a central role in various forms of cell death and disease pathogenesis. It disrupts membrane integrity, generates signaling molecules, and is implicated in various diseases where oxidative stress is prominent.
