Abstract

Premature vascular senescence is reversed or prevented in tissue or cells by contacting the tissue or cells with a hydroxyguanidine. This finds application in treatment of patients with a disorder associated with elevated levels of advanced glycation end products in blood or tissue, e.g., patients with end stage renal disease or poorly controlled diabetes, and in contacting vascular tissue or cells ex vivo to prevent occurrence of premature senescence.
