Reviews our current understanding of the role of proteinoxidation in aging and age-related diseases Protein oxidation is at the core of the aging process. Settingforth a variety of new methods and approaches, this book helpsresearchers conveniently by exploring the aging process anddeveloping more effective therapies to prevent or treat age-relateddiseases. There have been many studies dedicated to therelationship between protein oxidation and age-related pathology;now it is possible for researchers and readers to learn newtechniques as utilizing protein oxidation products as biomarkersfor aging. Protein Oxidation and Aging begins with a description ofthe tremendous variety of protein oxidation products. Furthermore,it covers: Major aspects of the protein oxidation process Cellular mechanisms for managing oxidized proteins Role of protein oxidation in aging Influence of genetic and environmental factors on proteinoxidation Measuring protein oxidation in the aging process Protein oxidation in age-related diseases References at the end of each chapter serve as a gateway to thegrowing body of original research studies and reviews in thefield.
