Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oxidative stress is caused by various intrinsic and extrinsic factors. It has been widely accepted that dietary supplement interventions can decrease the levels of oxidative stress. Nautral bioactive compounds (flavonoids, stilbenes, terpenes, alkaloids, saponins, polysaccharide, etc.) have been reported to exhibit multiple health promoting effects, including antioxidant activity. However, the underlying cellular signaling and molecular mechanisms of their effect in ameliorating oxidative stress are not fully understood. In this Special Issue, we will collect and summarize the antioxidant activities of natural bioactive compounds based on studies on cell culture models, animal models, and clinical trials.
