Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue entitled "The Janus Face of Oxidative Stress in Normal and Pathological Conditions" purposes to delve into the dualistic environment of oxidative stress, a phenomenon that plays a crucial role in both the conservation of cellular homeostasis and the evolution of various diseases. This collection of articles will discover the subtle balance between the beneficial and detrimental outcomes of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS), highlighting how these molecules, while indispensable for standard physiological functions such as signaling and immune response, can also drive pathological activities when their regulation is altered. By combining cutting-edge research and comprehensive reviews, this issue pursues to provide a greater understanding of the mechanisms underlying oxidative stress and disclose potential therapeutic approaches for moderating its harmful impacts in disorders such as cancer, addiction, immune-endocrine conditions, neurodegenerative diseases, and cardiovascular disorders. Through this double perspective, this Special Issue emphasizes the importance of context in oxidative stress research, highlighting that the same molecular events can lead to vastly different consequences depending on the cellular and systemic setting.
We welcome original research (clinical and preclinical data) and review articles relating to this hot topic.
Dr. Marco Fiore
Guest Editor
