Overview of the roles of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the pathophysiology of ARDS. ROS originating from various intrinsic and extrinsic sources leads to oxidative stress, cell-mediated inflammation, and damage to epithelial and endothelial cells. These processes are driven by the activation of multiple signaling pathways, ultimately contributing to the onset and progression of ARDS.
