Lipid Hydroperoxide-Derived Modification of Biomolecules

Lipid peroxidation is an important cellular process which can lead to detrimental effects if it is not regulated efficiently. Recent studies have shown that lipid hydroperoxide or a slightly modified product of the lipid hydroperoxide reacts with biomolecules such as proteins and aminophospholipids, which leads to formation of amide-type adducts.
