Now 24, he is a first - year graduate student in the department of cellular and structural biology at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio (UTHSCSA), where he is studying the role of oxidative damage — the wear and tear inflicted upon the cell by toxic molecules called free radicals — in the aging process.

Oxidative stress is damage to the body caused by an accumulation of unstable molecules called free radicals.

This metabolic demand makes brain cells particularly vulnerable to damage from oxidative stress, in which reactive oxygen species (ROS), sometimes called free radicals, exert toxic effects on cellular components.

The plant dissipates the excess light energy to prevent damage and oxidative stress, and a process called the xanthophyll cycle helps to flip the switch between energy dissipation and energy utilization.

This caused oxidative stress — too much oxygen that damages healthy cells — and allowed the release of harmful molecules, called free radicals, which resulted in serious illness.

Fat cells produce excessive reactive oxygen species, which can damage cells in a process called oxidative stress.

The oxidative stress theory of aging holds that oxidation from molecules called «free radicals» causes damage to cells over time, resulting in sarcopenia and other decline.

Her research team found that cellular oxidative stress (arising because of reactive oxygen species) increases in mice exposed to THS, damaging proteins, fats and DNA, and leading to hyperglycemia (excess glucose in the blood stream) and insulinemia (excess insulin in the blood)-- a condition also called insulin resistance.

Sugar accelerates aging by increasing oxidative stress (cell damage caused by renegade molecules called free radicals).

Free radicals are unstable molecules that damage or «oxidize» cells throughout the body in a process called oxidative stress.

And so when the brain is using ketones, there is going to be less free radical damage and what we call oxidative stress in the brain, so less damage being associated with the various neurons in the brain therefore better connection, better communication.

Antioxidants help prevent or slow cell damage by counteracting oxidative stress, a process triggered by unstable molecules called free radicals.

When fed in excessive amounts (5g of garlic per kg of the dog's body weight), garlic can cause oxidative damage to Fido's red blood cells, leading to a condition called Heinz body anaemia, a complex disease that requires professional diagnosis and treatment.
