Oxidative stress & a GALT-null Drosophila model of classic galactosemia. Recent report.

Jumbo-Lucioni PP, Hopson ML, Hang D, Liang Y, Jones DP, Fridovich-Keil JL. Oxidative stress contributes to outcome severity in a Drosophila melanogaster model of classic galactosemia. Dis Model Mech. 2013 Jan;6(1):84-94. PMID: 22773758; PMCID: PMC3529341.

From the Translantion Impact statement:  "These findings indicate that oxidative stress and/or the physiological response to oxidative stress might play a role in classic galactosemia in humans, opening up new opportunities for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment."
