Inflammatory responses to lipopolysaccharide are suppressed in 40% energy-restricted mice
Open accessAbstract
To elucidate the suppressive effects of energy restriction on the inflammatory responses to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), mice were divided into a control group (fed 5.0 g diet/d; 71 kJ/d) and a 40% energy-restricted group (fed 3.0 g diet/d; 43 kJ/d) at 8-wk of age. Four weeks later, 25 microg of LPS was intraperitoneally injected. After the LPS injection, interleukin-1beta, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha were elevated in serums in the 40% energy-restricted mice and in the controls, but the extent of the elevation was significantly lower in the restricted group. The LPS-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase in the liver was significantly suppressed by the energy restriction. In addition, the LPS-induced elevations of serum aspartate and alanine aminotransferase activities, which are indexes of hepatic injury, were also significantly attenuated in the restricted group. Moreover, the extent of LPS-induced alterations in hepatic structure was less in the restricted mice than in controls. Serum corticosterone level in the restricted mice was higher than that in the controls before LPS treatment (P < 0.05). Furthermore, after LPS injection, the significantly higher level of corticosterone was maintained in the restricted mice, although the LPS treatment significantly enhanced the level even in the control group. These results suggest that the extreme inflammatory responses to endotoxin are prevented in the 40% energy-restricted mice, and corticosterone participates in the preventive effects.

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.
