Abstract

The role of oxidative stress in aging and the newly conceptualized vision of frailty is of great interest for the possibility to define a framework able to explain the several modifications observed in all biological molecules along with age. In this review, the impact of oxidative stress is considered in aging processes as well as in frailty, the geriatric concept of declined capacity to cope with any stressor, leading to a status of reduced ability to maintain the homeostatic balance. Although some pharmacological and behavioral approaches have been proposed, we are still lacking efficacious management able to prevent and avoid frailty. This represents a fundamental challenge for future research in this field.
