Lipid Peroxidation: Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), especially arachidonic and adrenic acids, are substrates for lipoxygenases (LOX), which drive peroxidation in membrane phospholipids, generating cytotoxic lipid peroxides such as 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) and malondialdehyde (MDA) (Hasan et al., 2023)
