Alpha-tocopherol Modulates Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced DNA Damage and Telomere Shortening of Human Skin Fibroblasts Derived from Differently Aged Individuals
28 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
Antioxidants such as vitamin E may act differently on skin cells depending on the age of the skin and the level of oxidative damage induced. The effects of alpha-tocopherol (ATF) on H(2)O(2)-induced DNA damage and telomere shortening of normal human skin fibroblast cells derived from young and old individual donors were determined. Fibroblasts were divided into five groups; untreated control, H(2)O(2)-induced...
