Claim Text:
1. A method for determining the impact of a compound on the redox status of a cell or tissue comprising the steps of: i) determining the redox status of a cell or tissue by detecting the formation of disulfide-linked promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) complexes in said cell or tissue ii) contacting said cell or tissue with said compound iii) determining the redox status of said cell or tissue after step ii) by detecting the formation of disulfide-linked PML complexes in said cell or tissue; and iv) comparing the redox status determined at step iii) with the redox status determined at step i), and determining based on said comparison if the compound has an impact on the redox status of the cell or tissue.
