Accelerated vascular aging in CuZnSOD-deficient mice: impact on EPC function and reparative neovascularization.

Accelerated vascular aging in CuZnSOD-deficient mice: impact on EPC function and reparative neovascularization.

Aging is associated with increased oxidative stress levels and impaired neovascularization following ischemia. CuZnSOD has an important role to limit oxidative stress in the vasculature. Here we investigated the role of CuZnSOD for the modulation of ischemia-induced neovascularisation during aging.H...
