Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Obesity-related diseases affect different districts of the body, including cardiovascular, renal, retinal, urogenital, and cerebrovascular disorders. It is widely documented that obesity and being overweight lead to severe inflammatory status involving every part of the organism, but some areas are particularly damaged. In this context, the role of oxidative stress and inflammation in this process is well-known. Therefore, the identification of antioxidants and their correct therapeutical use is crucial to addressing the inauspicious effects of obesity.
This Special Issue will showcase a range of papers or reviews to increase the general know-how relative to this topic. We would particularly like to include papers that analyze natural or synthetic antioxidants, explaining their deep mechanisms of action, opportunities for use in obesity-related diseases, and their therapeutical approaches.
There may be different reasons to actively participate in this project. Among them, in my opinion, is that this Special Issue has an intriguing theme and the support of Antioxidants, one of the journals with a high reputation in this field.
Therefore, I encourage the participation of colleagues who study obesity, oxidative stress, and antioxidant therapy.
Dr. Seyed Khosrow Tayebati
