Mitochondrial Antioxidant Therapy for Treating Vascular Aging
Prof. Seals will give a strategic talk on "Mitochondrial Antioxidant Therapy for Treating Vascular Aging".
The Scientific Committee of Targeting Mitochondria 2019 Congress is honored to announce Prof. Douglas R Seals from University of Colorado Boulder, USA will be joining us for our 10th Anniversary Edition of Targeting Mitochondria World Congress, which will be held in Berlin on October 28th-29th, 2019.
Summary of the Talk: Arterial dysfunction is the major risk factor driving the dramatic increase in risk of cardiovascular diseases with aging. Excessive superoxide production by mitochondria is a key mechanism underlying age-related vascular dysfunction and, as such, is a major therapeutic target for prevention of cardiovascular disorders. I will discuss our translational research efforts to establish the efficacy of the mitochondrial antioxidant, MitoQ, for the treatment of arterial dysfunction with aging.
