ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to methods for identifying test substances useful for the prevention or treatment of diseases involving an oxidative stress. The methods involve screening assays, including high throughput screening techniques, in which the test substances are tested for their ability to promote resistance to oxidative stress by activating one or more points of the integrated stress response pathway, while not causing stress.
