Oxidative Stress, Chronic Disease, and Muscle Wasting

Moylan, Jennifer S., Reid, Michael B.·2007·Muscle & Nerve

Abstract

Underlying the pathogenesis of chronic disease is the state of oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is an imbalance in oxidant and antioxidant levels. If an overproduction of oxidants overwhelms the antioxidant defenses, oxidative damage of cells, tissues, and organs ensues. In some cases, oxidative stress is assigned a causal role in disease pathogenesis, whereas in others the link is less certain. Along with underlying oxidative stress, chronic disease is often accompanied by muscle wasting. It has been hypothesized that catabolic programs leading to muscle wasting are mediated by oxidative stress. In cases where disease is localized to the muscle, this concept is easy to appreciate. Transmission of oxidative stress from diseased remote organs to skeletal muscle is thought to be mediated by humoral factors such as inflammatory cytokines. This review examines the relationship between oxidative stress, chronic disease, and muscle wasting, and the mechanisms by which oxidative stress acts as a catabolic signal.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Oxidative stress is a major trigger of imbalance between protein synthesis and degradation leading to muscle atrophy.

    “Oxidative stress, characterized by increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and impairment of antioxidant defense systems, is also a major trigger of imbalance between protein synthesis and degradation leading to muscle atrophy [10,11].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
