Abstract 1229: Molecular Mechanisms of Angiotensin II-Mediated Mitochondrial Dysfunction: Linking Mitochondrial Oxidative Damage and Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction

TL;DR: Mitochondrial dysfunction in response to Ang II modulates endothelial NO˙ and &OV0151; generation, which in turn has ramifications for development of endothelial dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative stress response and Nrf2 signaling in aging.

TL;DR: This review summarizes current studies on age-related impairment of Nrf2/EpRE function and discusses the changes in NRF2 regulatory mechanisms with aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting vascular (endothelial) dysfunction

TL;DR: Assessing vascular function, including that of smooth muscle and even perivascular adipose tissue, may be an appropriate parameter for clinical investigations, and alternative diagnostic parameters such as vascular stiffness index and intima/media thickness ratio are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular Inflammation and Oxidative Stress: Major Triggers for Cardiovascular Disease

TL;DR: The value of immunomodulation for the treatment of cardiovascular disease was recently supported by large-scale clinical trials demonstrating reduced cardiovascular mortality in patients with established atherosclerotic disease when treated by highly specific anti-inflammatory therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular hydrogen as a preventive and therapeutic medical gas: initiation, development and potential of hydrogen medicine

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that H2 reacts with strong oxidants such as hydroxyl radical in cells, and its potential for preventive and therapeutic applications is proposed, indicating its promising potential for clinical use against many diseases.

Free radicals and antioxidants in normal physiological functions and human disease

TL;DR: Attention is focussed on the ROS/RNS-linked pathogenesis of cancer, cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis, hypertension, ischemia/reperfusion injury, diabetes mellitus, neurodegenerative diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, and ageing.

Aging: A Theory Based on Free Radical and Radiation Chemistry

TL;DR: It seems possible that one factor in aging may be related to deleterious side attacks of free radicals (which are normally produced in the course of cellular metabolism) on cell constituents.

Nitric Oxide and Peroxynitrite in Health and Disease

TL;DR: Current evidence indicates that most of the cytotoxicity attributed to NO is rather due to peroxynitrite, produced from the diffusion-controlled reaction between NO and another free radical, the superoxide anion, which is presented in detail in this review.
