Protective effects of a comprehensive topical antioxidant against ozone‑induced damage in a reconstructed human skin model

Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a source of oxidative stress. This study examined the ability of a topical antioxidant (WEL-DS) to inhibit O3-mediated damage in a human epidermal skin model. Four […]

Novel antioxidants are not toxic to normal tissues but effectively kill cancer cells

Free radicals are formed as a result of cellular processes and play a key role in predisposition to and development of numerous diseases and of premature aging. Recently, we reported […]
