In recent years, it has become evident that although free radicals most certainly do have this role in perpetuating inflammatory reactions, they have perhaps a far more important role in acting as second messenger systems to maintain normal cell function. It is the perturbations of these reactions which pose the most intriguing therapeutic challenges. ER -
