## Abstract Oxidative damage represents the most significant insult to organisms because of continuous production of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) in vivo. Oxidative damage in DNA, a critical target of ROS, is repaired primarily via the base excision repair (BER) pathway which appears to be the
Endogenous oxidative damage to brain mitochondrial DNA and consequential disturbances of gene expression and mitochondrial dysfunction have long been implicated in aging and the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. It has yet to be determined, however, whether mitochondria in brain cells cont
## Abstract Epigenetic alterations of gene function play a central role in the pathogenesis of many tumors and in the process of aging. Abnormal methylation at transcriptional sites of genes results in epigenetic silencing of the genes that protect against tumor formation or that repair DNA. To dat
