PREVENTION OF THE ADVERSE EFFECTS OF MITOCHONDRIAL REACTIVE OXYGEN SPECIES USING A MITOCHONDRIAL ROS PRODUCTION-SPECIFIC INHIBITOR

摘要

The present invention relates to the prevention of diseases involving reactive oxygen species (ROS) of mitochondrial origin. More specifically, the invention relates to the use of an inhibitor of the production of mitochondrial ROS, in particular anethole trithione, in order to prevent the negative effects of reactive oxygen species of mitochondrial origin.
