Q

decrease in action of the Na pump from hypoxia-Ischemia

A

Influx of Ca, H2O and Na

29
Q

what does ROS do to DNA

A

30
Q

what controls ROS

A

ENzymes

33
Q

what do Serum proteins do to control ROS

A

Reduce/bind iron (transferrin, ferritin) and copper (Ceruloplasmin) needed to catalyze the formation of ROS

34
Q

ROS effect on aging

A

Loss of antioxidants leads to ROS being more detrimental
