Gene transfer of extracellular SOD to the penis reduces O 2 − · and improves erectile function in aged rats

Increased superoxide anion (O[Formula: see text]·) may contribute to vascular dysfunction in aging. In aged cavernosal tissue, lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence demonstrated a threefold increase in superoxide formation, and the oxidative fluorescent probe hydroethidine indicated higher superoxide...
