Functional inhibition of redox regulated heme proteins: A novel mechanism towards oxidative stress induced by homocysteine
Homocysteine (Hcy) is a sulfur containing non-protein toxic amino acid synthesized from methionine. Elevated level of Hcy is associated with cardiovascular complications and neurodegeneration. Hcy is believed to induce organ damage and apoptosis via oxidative stress. The pro-oxidant nature of Hcy is...
