Addressing the debate about whether free radicals released during exercise accelerate the ageing process, this text provides a review of skeletal muscle oxidative stress and ageing, both in terms of free radical production and antioxidant systems.
The chemistry of reactive oxygen species and related free radicals; antioxidant dense - effects of ageing and exercise; the role of antioxidant nutrition in exercise and ageing; reactive oxygen species and skeletal muscle function; adaptation of th heart to ischemic stress - role of nitric oxide, exercise, and ageing in myocardial preconditioning; oxidative modification of proteins and DNA; role of lipid and lipoprotein oxidation.
