Free Radical Effects -

 

The Expansion Of Medical Interest

 

The March 1993 paper in the Lancet is just another example of the reports of free radical research now appearing regularly in the professional medical press. Other conditions in which free radicals have been implicated or suspected of being important include :

  • Pressure sores

  • Red blood cell damage

  • Paraquat poisoning

  • Carbon tetrachloride poisoning

  • Ozone damage

  • Skeletal muscle damage

  • Liver cell damage

  • Spinal cord injury

  • Diatbetes

  • Possibly cancer caused by electromagnetic fields from power lines.

Free radicals have also been found to be active in alcohol toxicity and in bringing about the tumour – destructive action of anticancer drugs.


Papers on free radicals have appeared in numerous medical and other journals from all over the world. Here are a few, in addition to those already mentioned, that have published articles on the subject: Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, American Journal of Epidemiology, Annals of Clinical Biochemistry, Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, Biochemical Medicine, Cancer Research, Free Radical Biology and Medicine, Gastroenterology, International Journal of Epidemiology, Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Journal of Biological Chemistry, Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry, Journal of Pharmacology, Nature and Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology.


With this much serious medical and scientific interest in the subject, can you really afford to ignore it ?
