Oxidative stress and cytotoxicity induced by catecholamines and L-DOPA
Oxidative stress is a condition of excessive formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and/or deficiency in antioxidant defense systems. Catecholamines and L-DOPA have been speculated to induce oxidative stress by generating excessively ROS via MAO-catalyzed oxidative deamination and via autoxidati...
