Abstract

Summary: Females live longer than males. Oestrogens protect females against aging by up‐regulating the expression of antioxidant, longevity‐related genes such as glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and Mn‐superoxide dismutase (Mn‐SOD). The mechanism through which oestrogens up‐regulate those enzymes remains unidentified, but may have implications for gender differences in lifespan. We show that physiological concentrations of oestradiol act through oestrogen receptors to reduce peroxide levels in MCF‐7 cells (a mammary gland tumour cell line). Oestradiol increases MAP kinase (MAPK) activation as indicated by ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation in MCF‐7 cells, which in turn activates the nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB) signalling pathways as indicated by an increase in the p50 subunit of NFκB in nuclear extracts. Blockade of MAPK and NFκB signalling reduces the antioxidant effect of oestradiol. Finally, we show that activation of MAPK and NFκB by oestrogens drives the expression of the antioxidant enzymes Mn‐SOD and GPx. We conclude that oestradiol sequentially activates MAPK and NFκB following receptor activation to up‐regulate the expression of antioxidant enzymes, providing a cogent explanation for the antioxidant properties of oestrogen and its effects on longevity‐related genes.

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.
