Protein Oxidation and Aging, Hardcover by Grune, Tilman; Catalgol, Betul; Jung, Tobias; Uversky, Vladimir, ISBN 0470878282, ISBN-13 9780470878286, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US

Grune (nutrition), Jung (both Friedrich Schiller U. Jena), and Catagol (medicine and biochemistry, Marmara U.) compile the substantial research findings on oxidative stress and protein oxidation, the removal of oxidized proteins, different model systems and affecting factors of protein oxidation and aging, and protein oxidation in some age-related diseases. Specific topics include the role enzymatic systems play in protein oxidation, the mechanism and factors influencing the formation of protein oxidation products, the limited repair of some oxidized proteins, the role of heat shock proteins in protein degradation, non-mammalian model systems and the accumulation of oxidized proteins during aging, environmental factors affecting healthy aging, and protein oxidation in cardiac disease.
