• galactose
  25 November 2003

  Galactose (Gal) (also called brain sugar) is a type of sugar which is less sweet than glucose. It is considered a nutritive sweetener because it has food energy.
  Galactan is a polymer of the sugar galactose. It is found in hemicellulose and can be converted to galactose by hydrolysis. Galactose solubility in water is 68.30 grams per 100 grams of water at 20–25° C.
  It is found in dairy products, in sugar beets and other gums and mucilages.
  It is also synthesized by the body, where it forms (...)

  WKP
  Definition: Lipids are a broad group of naturally-occurring molecules which includes fats, waxes, sterols, fat-soluble vitamins (such as vitamins A, D, E and K), monoglycerides, diglycerides, phospholipids, and others.
  The whole of lipids is the lipidome.
  Lipids are broadly defined as any fat-soluble (lipophilic), naturally-occurring molecule. Lipids are usually defined as hydrophobic or amphipathic biological molecules that will dissolve in organic solvents such as benzene or (...)

• retinoic acid
  11 July 2003

  Definition: Retinoic acid is the oxidized form of Vitamin A.
  Functions
  Embryology
  Retinoic acid via the retinoic acid receptor influences the process of cell differentiation, hence, the growth and development of embryos.
  Retinoic acid functions in determining position along embryonic anterior/posterior axis in chordates. It acts through Hox genes, which ultimately controls anterior/posterior patterning in early developmental stages.
  Retinoic acid acts by binding to heterodimers of the (...)

  ROS reactive oxygen species
  O2 is converted to superoxide (O2-) by oxidative enzymes in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), mitochondria, plasma membrane, peroxisomes, and cytosol.
  O2- is converted to H2O2 by dismutation and thence to OH by the Cu2+/Fe2+-catalyzed Fenton reaction. H2O2 is also derived directly from oxidases in peroxisomes.
  Resultant free radical damage to lipid (peroxidation), proteins, and DNA leads to various forms of cell injury.
  02- superoxide catalyzes the reduction (...)
