"Accumulating evidence suggests that

ROS are
not only injurious by-products of cellular metabolism but also
essential participants in cell signaling and regulation.

Although this role for ROS is a relatively novel concept in vertebrates,
there is strong evidence of a physiological role for ROS in several nonmammalian systems."
