Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Fullerene C60 derivatives are the most promising nanomaterials because of its unique ability to scavenge large numbers of free radicals. Therefore fullerene C60 derivatives with antioxidant effects have been expected to apply to the medicine for inflammatory disease. Here I showed that Fullerene C60 derivatives might be useful preventive therapeutics for metabolic syndrome.
