pubmed:abstractText |
NADH-Coenzyme Q reductase was assayed in platelet mitochondrial membranes obtained from 19 pools of two venous blood samples from female young (19-30 years) individuals and 18 pools from aged ones (66-107 years). The enzyme activities were not significantly changed in the two groups, but a decrease of sensitivity to the specific inhibitor, rotenone, occurred in a substantial number of aged individuals. The results are in agreement with the predictions of the mitochondrial theory of ageing and may be used to develop a sensitive biomarker of the ageing process.
