Role of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species in homeostasis regulation

Abstract excerpt

Mitochondria are the main source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells. Early studies have shown that mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) are related to the occurrence and adverse outcomes of many diseases, and are thus regarded as an important risk factor that threaten human health. Recently, increasing evidence has shown that mROS are very important for an organism's homeostasis. mROS can regulate...
