Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species signalling and vascular smooth muscle cell senescence

Ageing is a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease. In particular, senescent vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) have been observed within atherosclerotic plaques. Oxidants are widely implicated in vascular ageing and cardiovascular disease with evidence of oxidative stress in ce...
