Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Our previous edition received an overwhelming number of submissions and was a successful compilation of research and review articles. Therefore, I am pleased to announce the second edition of our Special Issue entitled “Free Radicals, Antioxidants, and Oxidative Stress in Aging and Age-Related Diseases”.
The second edition of this Special Issue delves into the intricate balance between oxidative stress and antioxidant defenses in the aging process and associated diseases. This edition compiles the latest research exploring how free radicals, highly reactive molecules produced during metabolism, contribute to cellular damage and the progression of age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, cardiovascular disorders, and cancer. The purpose of this Special Issue continues to review the current state of our knowledge regarding the effect of free radicals on the aging process and age-related diseases. Particular attention will also be given to studies on the effect of antioxidants in reducing the damage induced by ROS and in preventing the development of certain physio-pathological alterations.
