Tetrahydroxyquinone
Tetrahydroxyquinone (Tetroquinone) is a redox-active small molecule historically investigated as an anticataract agent. Its ability to engage in redox cycling, generating semiquinone radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS), makes it a useful tool for studying oxidative stress mechanisms in both biochemical and cellular research models.
