DJ-1/PARK7 Protein Parkinson’s Disease, Cancer and Oxidative Stress-Induced Diseases / edited by Hiroyoshi Ariga, Sanae M. M. Iguchi-Ariga.

This book reviews the functions and roles of DJ-1 in various oxidative stress-related diseases and applications of DJ-1 and its binding compounds to the diseases. The DJ-1 gene was first found to be a novel oncogene in 1997 and later, in 2003, also found to be a causative gene for a familial form of...
