Chapter 6.1: Oxidative Stress in Breast CancerChapter 6.2: Melanoma and Oxidative Stress; Chapter 6.3: Oxidative Stress in Head and Neck Cancer; Chapter 6.4: Cancer Cachexia and its Relationship with Free Radicals; Color Plate Section. This book presents recent findings on the role of oxidative stress in chronic diseases. Understanding the mechanisms behind it enables readers to comprehend the rationale which underlies intervention in such conditions. The book places special emphasis on genetic polymorphism-an important issue related to this field of study. It covers the role of oxidative stress in transmissible disorders as well as non-transmissible chronic conditions with chapters on metabolic diseases, autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer and cachexia. Each chapter covers a different disorder and the e. |
