Insight from Molecular dynamic simulation of reactive oxygen species in oxidized skin membrane

Abstract Non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation of the skin-lipid bilayer causes perturbations that affect the biomembrane structure, function, and permeability of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In the present study, we employed molecular dynamics simulations to study the effect of lipid peroxidation on t...
