  • Title: arNOX: generator of reactive oxygen species in the skin and sera of aging individuals subject to external modulation.
    Author: Morré DM, Meadows C, Morré DJ.
    Journal: Rejuvenation Res; 2010; 13(2-3):162-4. PubMed ID: 20345278.
    Abstract:
    An aging-related cell-surface oxidase (aging-related NADH oxidase, arNOX) generating superoxide and other reactive oxygen species is shed from the cell surface and is found in saliva, urine, perspiration, and interstitial fluids that surround the collagen and elastin matrix underlying dermis. arNOX activity correlates with age and reaches a maximum at about age 65 in males and 55 in females. arNOX activities are highly correlated with values of human skin where a causal relationship is indicated. Ongoing efforts focus on cloning arNOX proteins and development of antiaging formulas based on arNOX inhibition (intervention).
