Abstract

A method of treating a Down syndrome (DS) subject with functional or at risk of decline of organ systems associated with accelerated aging due to over-production of H2S is disclosed. That method contemplates administering a pharmaceutical composition containing a H2S-reducing effective amount of hydrophilic polymer-substituted oxidized carbon nanoparticles (OCNPs) and an optional potentiating amount of lipoic acid or dihydrolipoic acid dissolved or dispersed in a physiologically acceptable diluent to the subject. The pharmaceutical composition can be administered parenterally as a liquid or per os as a solid or liquid.
