Aging Overview

External factors

External factors: Atorvastatin
Aging type: Prevent
Aging characteristic:
Category: Chemical compounds
Phenotype: Aging
Experimental category: L
Tissue type: --
Cell name: Endothelial cell
PMID: 14963003
Experiment: Flow cytometry//PCR//SA-β-gal activity assay//Telomerase activity assay
Description: Increase in ROS formation was significantly reduced by atorvastatin. Incubation with atorvastatin also inhibited the loss of intact mitochondrial DNA and abrogated the reduction of nuclear and overall TERT activity and protein. Furthermore, incubation with atorvastatin delayed the onset of senescence of endothelial cells .
