Chloroplasts are especially subject to oxidative stress during photosynthesis, and they have a multiplicity of protective mechanisms (ascorbic acid, vitamin E, carotenoids, glutathione, superoxide dismutase) and repair systems (thioredoxin, methionhne sulphoxide teductase, resynthesis of damaged pro

## Abstract ## Background This study assessed the presence of oxidative damage and lipid peroxidation in thyroid neoplasia. ## Methods Using tissue microarrays and immunohistochemistry, we assessed levels of DNA damage (8‐oxo‐dG) and lipid peroxidation (4‐HNE) in 71 follicular thyroid adenoma (F
Reactive oxygen species lead to lipid peroxidation and speci®c oxidation of some speci®c enzymes, proteins and other macromolecules, thus aecting many intra-and intercellular systems. Recently, antioxidant functions have been linked to anti-in¯ammatory properties. Cell defences against toxic oxygen
