Introduction
Redox regulation of cellular signaling pathways is a complex and dynamic process that plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and responding to various environmental stimuli. Redox signaling involves the reversible oxidation and reduction of key signaling molecules, such as proteins and lipids, which in turn regulate a wide range of cellular processes including cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and immune response. Dysregulation of redox signaling has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and cardiovascular diseases.
This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of redox regulation of cellular signaling pathways, focusing on the mechanisms underlying redox signaling, the role of redox signaling in disease pathogenesis, and the potential therapeutic strategies targeting redox signaling pathways.
