Journal of Cell Science sol:10.1242/jcs.098475 February15, 2012 J cell Sci 125, 801-806. It is now clear that RSM’s such as Hydrogen Peroxide can act as messengers both in the extracellular environment and within cells. REDOX molecules to and from mitochondria help to integrate cell functions.

Cellular respiration (converting food into energy) is a combustion reaction that is directed by RSM’s foundationally. Aerobic or Anaerobic reactions are directed by the movement and influence of RSM’s.

Caloric restriction has dramatic alteration in oxidative damage, inflammation and insulin sensitivity which are REDOX mediated biochemical reactions critical in understanding obesity.

Oxidative cellular environments create consequences like insulin resistance, B cell Dysfunction, and impaired glucose tolerance. This will lead to a diabetic disease state.

Ageing is associated with several physiological declines in the musculoskeletal system (muscle function and mass). Exercise induced mitochondrial remodeling is mediated by upstream REDOX signaling events that converge on downstream transcriptional co-factors.

Accumulating evidence suggests that NADPH oxidase has an important role in signal transduction in cellular stress responses. Activation of the cell survival pathway by NADPH oxidase may promote cell adaptation to stresses as well as apoptosis.

The endothelium has emerged as the key regulator of vascular homeostasis.
Alteration in endothelial REDOX function precedes he development of morphological atherosclerosis changes and can also contribute to the lesion development and later clinical complications.

Arrays of chemical oxidants are produced in healthy cells, where they function as important signaling molecules that are crucial in homeostatic regulation and cellular adaptation. The molecular basis of REDOX signaling is a series of oxido-reductive chemical reactions in which oxidants or reductants post-transnationally alter the structure of proteins
