Oxidant injury in coronary heart disease [Part-1]

  • Original Article
  • Published:
Comprehensive Therapy

Abstract

Oxidative stress damages the heart through a series of reactions begining with lipid peroxidation, the main process behind atherosclerosis. Antioxidant supplementation has some beneficial effects by binding with metal ions or catalysts to prevent oxidative lipid peroxidation and chain production.
