Abstract

Significance: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have long been thought to cause aging and considered to be toxic byproducts generated during mitochondrial respiration. Surprisingly, recent studies show that modestly increased ROS levels lengthen lifespan, at least in the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans . It was unclear how the levels of potentially toxic ROS are regulated and how ROS promote longevity. Here we demonstrate that ROS activate two proteins, AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), to promote longevity by increasing immunity. Further, we find that internal ROS levels are reduced by AMPK while being amplified by HIF-1 when animals are stimulated to have higher ROS levels. Thus, balancing ROS at optimal levels appears to be crucial for organismal health and longevity.

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.
