    摘要: The present invention provides a new means of restoring the immune system in aging and immunocompromised individuals using an antioxidant nutraceutical. The nutraceutical stimulates the aging immune system through the Nrf2 master gene regulatory pathway. The invention is based in part on the discovery that the Nrf2 has antioxidant and immune restorative activity. The nutraceutical improves function of both the innate and adaptive immune systems.

    摘要: A method based is provided for determining the toxicity of engineered nanomaterials (NM). The method comprises in vitro assays for oxidative stress associated with exposure to engineered NM, which comprise assays for: reactive oxygen species production; phase II and glutathione antioxidant molecule expression; activation of MAP and NF-kappa B kinase signaling cascades; production of cytokines, chemokines and adhesion molecules; mitochondrial perturbation and apoptosis; and cellular uptake and subcellular localization of the NM. The method further comprises in vivo assays for oxidative stress in subjects exposed to NM.
