Overview

Addressing the impact of oxygen on evolution and ontogeny, this work examines animal and cellular models to investigate the use of oxygen in humans for the treatment of various diseases and conditions. It covers such areas as oxidative stress, ageing, oxygen sensing, ischemia-reperfusion, reactive oxygen species and antioxidant enzymes.
