Quick Summary
In this randomized crossover study, a mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant improved endothelial function in adult participants with low cardiorespiratory fitness, but not in those with high cardiorespiratory fitness.
What was studied?
The effects of a mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant (MitoQ) on endothelial function in middle-aged and older adults who do or do not exercise regularly.
The primary outcome was endothelial function measured as brachial-artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD). Secondary outcomes included blood pressure and arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity).
