“…Several assays are available for measuring ROS generation, antioxidant defense, and oxidative damage to macromolecules in blood, cells, and tissues (Dikalov & Harrison, 2014;Starkov, 2010). The significance of these oxidative stress biomarkers for aging is uncertain, as in many cases they have been studies in specific medical conditions and not in the context of aging studies (Al Shahrani, Heales, Hargreaves, & Orford, 2017;Hayashi & Cortopassi, 2015;Weber et al, 2017). Studies that use multiple mitochondrial biomarkers have revealed only a slight intercorrelation between the markers and aging, suggesting that they tap into different biological dimensions (Lara et al, 2015;Larsen et al, 2012;Marrocco, Altieri, & Peluso, 2017;Xia, Chen, McDermott, & Han, 2017).…”
