Aging and Anti-Aging

[Increasing oxidative stress in aging] (Nippon Rinsho. 2005) "Oxidative stress in aging relates not only direct organ damage but also induce risk factors for vascular damage such as metabolic syndrome."

Cancer - General

Oxidative stress-induced DNA damage by particulate air pollution. (Mutat Res. 2005) "Exposure to ambient air particulate matter (PM) is associated with pulmonary and cardiovascular diseases and cancer. The mechanisms of PM-induced health effects are believed to involve inflammation and oxidative stress. ? Oxidative stress-induced DNA damage appears to an important mechanism of action of urban particulate air pollution. Related biomarkers and personal monitoring may be useful tools for risk characterization."
