Role of Cytochrome b5 and α-Tocopherol to Microsomal and Mitochondrial Oxidation

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

The existence of lipid-radical cycles in membranes as an LPO alternative has been proven. Cytochrome b5 seems to play the key role in the formation of these cycles. The functional role of lipid-radical cycles in cell metabolism, including the positive effect on microsomal and mitochondrial oxidation, is discussed.
