PREVENTING OR REDUCING OXIDATIVE STRESS OR OXIDATIVE CELL INJURY

摘要

A water-insoluble cellulose derivative, such as ethyl cellulose is useful for preventing or reducing oxidative stress or oxidative cell injury in tissues of an animal and in particular for influencing the level Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase-1 (SCD1) gene expression or ATP synthase mitochondrial F1 complex assembly factor 1 (ATPAF1) gene expression in non-adipose tissues of the animal.
