Abstract

Reactive carbonyl species generated by lipid peroxidation are involved in several human diseases and may represent a novel drug target. RCS therefore represent a new biological target for drug discovery. The reaction mechanisms and structural features characterising effective aldehyde-sequestering agents are highlighted, as are the fundamental biochemical and pharmacological screening tools to be applied in the development of RCS scavengers.
