Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor α Activation Modulates Cellular Redox Status, Represses Nuclear Factor-κB Signaling, and Reduces Inflammatory Cytokine Production in Aging

Abstract

In aged mice, the redox-regulated transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) becomes constitutively active in many tissues, as well as in cells of the hematopoietic system. This oxidative stress-induced activity promotes the production of a number of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which can contribute to the pathology of many disease states associated with aging. The administration to aged mice of agents capable of activating the alpha isoform of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPARalpha) was found to restore the cellular redox balance, evidenced by a lowering of tissue lipid peroxidation, an elimination of constitutively active NF-kappaB, and a loss in spontaneous inflammatory cytokine production. Aged animals bearing a null mutation in PPARalpha failed to elicit these changes following treatment with PPARalpha activators, but remained responsive to vitamin E supplementation. Aged C57BL/6 mice were found to express reduced transcript levels of PPARalpha and the peroxisome-associated genes acyl-CoA oxidase and catalase. Supplementation of these aged mice with PPARalpha activators or with vitamin E caused elevations in these transcripts to levels seen in young animals. Our results suggest that PPARalpha and the genes under its control play a role in the evolution of oxidative stress excesses observed in aging.

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.
