Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oxidative stress arises due to a disturbance in the balance of oxidant and antioxidant systems and further causes excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the pathological progression of various cardiovascular diseases, such as ischemic heart disease, hypertension, ischemia and reperfusion injury, atherosclerosis, and so on. Mitochondrial or endothelial dysfunctions in particular, as therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases, are closely associated with oxidative stress. Therefore, recent research has focused on elucidating the therapeutic effects of antioxidant therapy in cellular and animal models and clinical trials. As a result, mechanisms and pathways involved in oxidative stress have been revealed in cardiovascular diseases. In addition, many antioxidants, such as polyphenols, flavonoids, and vitamins, have also been discovered, and their potential roles in cardiovascular diseases have been elucidated.
This Special Issue will discuss research findings or reviews highlighting the role of oxidative stress in the progression of cardiovascular diseases, aiming to bring together current knowledge of the mechanisms and pathways involved in the incidence and action of oxidative stress in cardiovascular diseases.
