Abstract
Role of Oxidative Stress in Liver Health and Disease.
Highlights
ROS are not always the bad guy; important transcription factors such as Nrf2, NF-kB, and AP-1 are activated by H2O2-dependent oxidation of thiol residues
Oxidative stress can result from an increase in prooxidant formation or a decrease or deficiency in antioxidants
Due to the central role of oxidative stress on liver disease, this special issue was devoted to its implication in hepatic health and disease
