New antioxidants have been found at Perm National Research Polytechnic University (PNRPU). This was reported by the university's press service.
The discovered compounds will protect cells from oxidative stress. This will help in the fight against cancer, diabetes and aging.
Oxidative stress is associated with reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), which contain unpaired electrons and are radicals. Although they play an important role in transmitting signals inside cells, excessive accumulation of radicals can damage the body.
To search for new compounds, scientists used chemical and biological test systems based on red blood cells. More than 200 substances were synthesized. Among them, new antioxidants were discovered.
The research results will allow the creation of new medicinal and cosmetic products with new substances in the composition.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Russian scientists learned to remove tumors using electromagnetic radiation.
