Radical-free biology of oxidative stress; by Dean P. Jones [2008](IR92).png

WeiJin Tang (湯偉晉)_{The great visions and contributions made by redox biologist Howard S. Mason and Professor Dean P. Jones}[2011-02-13](IR91)

One of the great redox biologists of the past century, Howard S. Mason, professed that to advance science, a scientist must interpret observations at the limit of their meaning. The present review of the redox biology of thiol systems addresses the possibility that disruption of the function and homeostasis of thiol systems is the most central feature of oxidative stress that contributes to mechanisms of aging and age-related disease. I have termed this the "redox hypothesis" to facilitate distinction from free radical hypotheses.

Love is the foundation of a family (愛是一個家庭的基礎)

Love is the foundation of a family and it's also the foundation of a country and the world.  That's why I would say that God is Love and God love us.

愛是一個家庭的基礎，它也是一個國家和這個世界的基礎。這也就是為什麼我會說 "神就是愛，神愛我們"。

Have a happy New Year!
