Oxidative stress as a life-history constraint: the role of reactive oxygen species in shaping phenotypes from conception to death

2010-10-01

Abstract excerpt

1. Oxidative stress is usually defined as an imbalance arising when the rate of production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) exceeds the capacity of the antioxidant defence and repair mechanisms, leading to oxidative damage to biomolecules, but the concept can be expanded to include the disruption of reduction : oxidation (redox) reactions involved in cellular signalling. In this review, we consider how the need to...
