Mitochondrial Derived Reactive Oxygen Species on Cardiovascular Health in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Conditions: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Sex: All
Ages: 40 Years – N/A
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 24
Sponsor: Virginia Commonwealth University

Location: United States

Summary

Cardiovascular health is a critical problem in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Existing literature suggests oxidative stress from the mitochondria c driving some of the poor health outcomes in COPD. MitoQ is a mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant that has shown promise in improving cardiovascular outcomes in similar populations. Thus the purpose of this study is to test if MitoQ can improve cardiovascular health in COPD.
