Several amphiphilic, chalcogen-based redox modulators have been synthesized which exhibit a widespread, yet in some instances also selective, biological activity which is most likely based on their ability to modulate the intracellular redox balance and to interact with cellular membranes and specific proteins.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
