Effects of exercise training on redox stress resilience in young and older adults

Perturbations in redox homeostasis can lead to physiological dysfunction and impaired stress resilience. This randomized controlled trial investigated whether aerobic exercise training could improve redox stress resilience measured by the response to a non-exercise redox stressor (forearm ischemia/reperfusion; I/R trial) in young and older men and women. We hypothesized that older adults would have impaired responses to redox perturbations, but...
