Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed herein is the novel use of a gold nanocluser for ameliorating oxidative stress and/or aging of a cultured cell or a subject having an oxidative stress and/or aging condition mediated by a vascular factor. The gold nanocluster has a particle size ranging from about 0.1 to 20 nm, and preferably is dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) coated gold nanocluster.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of ameliorating oxidative stress and/or aging of a cultured cell comprising contacting the cultured cell with about 1 to 1,000 nM of a dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) coated gold nanocluster having a particle size ranging from about 0.1 to 20 nm, wherein, the DHLA coated gold nanocluster consists of a gold nanocluster formed by a plurality of gold nanoparticles, and a plurality of DHLAs coated on the gold nanocluster; and the cultured cell is selected f…
