Constitutive activation of NF-kappa B in an animal model of aging
Abstract
The pathophysiology of many disease states observed in aged individuals has been linked to the dysregulated production of several pleiotropic cytokines. We have demonstrated that NF-kappa B, a major transcriptional regulator of these aberrantly expressed cytokines, exists in a constitutively activated state in cells obtained from the major lymphoid organs of aged animals. Therapeutic treatment with dietary antioxidants or with agents capable of activating the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-alpha was able to correct the abnormal nuclear NF-kappa B activity, reduce lipid peroxide levels, and eliminate the dysregulated expression of cytokines and other genes under NF-kappa B control. These results suggest that abnormal activation of NF-kappa B in aging contributes to the dysregulated expression of certain pleiotropic cytokines. Effective therapeutic regimens for aging and other inflammatory disease states might benefit from the administration of antioxidants or other agents which specifically activate PPAR-alpha.

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.
