We hypothesized that oxygen free radicals (OFRs) may be involved in pathogenesis of
diabetic complications. We therefore investigated the levels of lipid peroxidation by …

Experiments were performed to determine if xanthine oxidase is a source of free radicals
during myocardial ischemia. Open chest dogs were subjected to 1 h of total occlusion of the …
