Reactive oxygen species (ROS) – a family of fate deciding molecules pivotal in constructive inflammation and wound healing

Wound healing requires a fine balance between the positive and deleterious effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS); a group of extremely potent molecules, rate limiting in successful tissue regeneration. A balanced ROS response will debride and disinfect a tissue and stimulate healthy tissue turnov...
