Anethole Trithione is a Mitochondrial ROS Blocker

Mitochondria, the power plants of the cell, generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) as a side effect of the energetic operations needed to package fuel supplies used by cellular processes. While ROS are necessary signals in many physiological circumstances, such as the beneficial reaction to exercise, excessive ROS generation can be harmful. Excessive ROS generation is also observed in aging. Suppressing that excessive ROS flux at its source, without affecting the beneficial signaling roles, has been demonstrated to be beneficial in disease states characterized by inflammation and high degrees of oxidative stress. It may also very modestly slow the progression of aging. A number of mitochondrially targeted antioxidant compounds have been developed over the past fifteen years, and shown to produce at least some these benefits: MitoQ, SkQ
