Provides insight into the involvement of free radicals in the pathogenesis of chemical-induced toxic tissue injury. The text addresses the fundamentals of free radical chemistry and the theoretical basis for electron transfer reaction leading to free radical generation. It describes the various subcellular sources of free radicals, the biological reactivity with lipid, protein and nucleic acids, and the physiochemical determinants of free radical-induced cell injury and the various antioxidant defence systems. The book focuses on target organ toxicity, and the concluding section offers an overview of the evidence implicating free radicals in the aetiology of various chemical toxicities, challenging the possibility of misguided use of biomarkers for oxidative damage.

Unsentimental yet deeply humane, Free Radicals "brims with energy, carefully drawn characters and fine acting" (The New York Post). in this "bruising, moving Altmanesque drama" (Time Out New York), writer/director Barbara Albert passionately explores the intersection of chance and fate as the seemingly unrelated residents of a suburban Austrian community become linked by a chain of circumstances. Albert, in her second film, subtly tempers cruel fate with "bright flashes of compassion" (The Daily

Amid the deadly racial violence of the 1960s, an unassuming student from a fundamentalist Christian home in Omaha emerged as a leader and nationally recognized black activist. Ernest Chambers, elected to the Nebraska State Legislature in 1970, eventually became one of the most influential legislators the state has ever known. As Chambers bids for reelection in 2012 to the office he held for thirty-eight years, Omaha native Tekla Agbala Ali Johnson illuminates his embattled career as a fiercely independent self-styled “defender of the downtrodden.”Tracing the growth of the Black Power Movement in Nebraska and throughout the U.S., Ali Johnson discovers its unprecedented emphasis on electoral politics. For the first time since Reconstruction, voters catapulted hundreds of African American community leaders into state and national political arenas. Special-interest groups and political machines would curb the success of aspiring African American politicians, just as urban renewal would erode their geographical and political bases, compelling the majority to join the Democratic or Republican parties. Chambers was one of the few not to capitulate.In her revealing study of the man and those he represented, Ali Johnson portrays one intellectual’s struggle alongside other African Americans to actualize their latent political power.

Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine has become a classic text in the field of free radical and antioxidant research. Now in its fifth edition, the book has been comprehensively rewritten and updated whilst maintaining the clarity of its predecessors. Two new chapters discuss 'in vivo' and 'dietary' antioxidants, the first emphasising the role of peroxiredoxins and integrated defence mechanisms which allow useful roles for ROS, and the second containing new information on the role of fruits, vegetables, and vitamins in health and disease. This new edition also contains expanded coverage of the mechanisms of oxidative damage to lipids, DNA, and proteins (and the repair of such damage), and the roles played by reactive species in signal transduction, cell survival, death, human reproduction, defence mechanisms of animals and plants against pathogens, and other important biological events. The methodologies available to measure reactive species and oxidative damage (and their potential pitfalls) have been fully updated, as have the topics of phagocyte ROS production, NADPH oxidase enzymes, and toxicology. There is a detailed and critical evaluation of the role of free radicals and other reactive species in human diseases, especially cancer, cardiovascular, chronic inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. New aspects of ageing are discussed in the context of the free radical theory of ageing. This book is recommended as a comprehensive introduction to the field for students, educators, clinicians, and researchers. It will also be an invaluable companion to all those interested in the role of free radicals in the life and biomedical sciences.

The past twenty years has seen an explosion of interest in free radicals, as their pivotal role in both chemistry and biology has come to light. This introductory textbook aims to capture this excitement for advanced level undergraduates, with particular emphasis on the importance of radical reactions in organic synthesis. The book provides a gentle, stepwise introduction to the subject, taking the student from the basic principles of radical reactions through to their applications in industry and their role in biological and environmental processes, allowing the relevance of the subject to be grasped more easily. Suitable for advanced level undergraduates and postgraduates in chemistry and biochemistry, the book will also be invaluable for research level scientists requiring an update in the area.

The last twenty years have seen an enormous growth in the number of studies on the role of complexes in free-radical polymerization. New possibilities for polymerization initiation and the significant influence on the kinetics of the elementary polymerization reactions, such as propagation, chain transfer, and termination, are the main areas which have attracted attention from specialists in this field. The most important breakthrough has probably been made in the regulation of free-radical polymerization by various complex-forming substances. Advances in this area have not only contributed to the better understanding of the kinetics and mechanism of radical chain reactions, but they have also created a background for the solution of some practical problems associated with the synthesis of new polymeric materials. This volume provides a survey of the latest achievements in the field of free-radical polymerization. The scope of the volume permits the presentation of these extensive problems in a concise form only, nevertheless it contains an invaluable source of information on topical questions relating to the participation of complexes in free-radical polymerization.

The discovery that several major human neurodegenerative diseases are associated with mitochondrial dysfunction has provided new opportunities for a better understanding of these diseases. In this book, major figures in the field offer state-of-the-art reviews of the role of mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative damage in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. Because many of the topics presented overlap with one another, the result is the most comprehensive review of the subject to date. Mitochondria and Free Radicals in Neurodegenerative Diseases begins with a historical overview of the field presented by one of its distinguished founders. The book goes on to supply detailed information on energy metabolism in normal brain function and to explore the role of oxidative damage—which may be a consequence of mitochondrial dysfunction—in the nervous system. Other early chapters focus on energy dysfunction leading to excitotoxic cell damage, the role of mitochondrial toxins in the pathogenesis of animal models of neurodegenerative diseases, and the role of mitochondria in aging. Additional topics include: Neurologic and neuropathologic consequences of mitochondrial disorders The role of mitochondria and oxidative damage in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and cerebellar degenerations Using MRI spectroscopy to assess energy defects in patients with neurodegenerative diseases Potential therapies for neurodegenerative diseases The role of glutamate receptor antagonists for therapy Known approaches to improving energy function in mitochondrial disorders Free radical scavengers and other innovative therapeutic approaches Cover image: Three-dimensional reconstruction of an isolated, condensed rat-liver mitochondrion, obtained by electron tomography, courtesy of Dr. Carmen A.
