LIPID OXIDATION
IN HEALTH AND
DISEASE

Oxidative stress is an underlying factor in health and disease. In this series of books,
the importance of oxidative stress and disease associated with organ systems of the
body is highlighted by exploring the scientific evidence and the clinical applications

of this knowledge. This series is intended for researchers in the basic biomedical sci-
ences and clinicians. The potential of such knowledge for healthy aging and disease

prevention warrants further knowledge about how oxidants and antioxidants modu-
late cell and tissue function.
