Ar NOX inhibited by • Coenzyme Q (Q8, Q9 and Q10 but not by Q0, Q2, Q4, or Q7) • Several Chinese botanicals with antiaging activities Buffy Coats Morré, D.M and Morré, D.J. 2003 BioFactors 18:33-43
Summary Aging-related NOX • Generates superoxide • Cells and sera of aged individual (>50y) • Postulated to propagate aging cascade to adjacent cells and circulating lipoproteins • Ablated by coenzyme Q10 /Antiaging botanicals
