Superoxide dismutases (SOD) are a group of enzymes that catalyze the dismutation of superoxide radicals (O2−) to molecular oxygen (O2) and hydrogen peroxide ( ...
Under normal conditions, ROS are cleared from the cell by the action of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, or glutathione (GSH) peroxidase. The main damage ...
The superoxide anion O(2)(-) is the main ROS. Increased ROS production leads to tissue damage associated with inflammation. Superoxide dismutases (SODs) convert ...
Through their activity, SOD enzymes control the levels of a variety of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species, thus both limiting the ...
