Pleiotropic actions of insulin resistance and inflammation in metabolic homeostasis

Open access
Odegaard, Justin I., Chawla, Ajay·2013·Science

Abstract

Metabolism and immunity are inextricably linked both to each other and to organism-wide function, allowing mammals to adapt to changes in their internal and external environments. In the modern context of obesogenic diets and lifestyles, however, these adaptive responses can have deleterious consequences. In this Review, we discuss the pleiotropic actions of inflammation and insulin resistance in metabolic homeostasis and disease. An appreciation of the adaptive context in which these responses arose is useful for understanding their pathogenic actions in disease.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • M1 macrophages secrete TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and chemokines that promote the influx of activated CD4+ Th1 cells.

    “M1 macrophages secrete TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and chemokines that promote the influx of activated CD4+ Th1 cells [14,20,239,248].”

    From The Role of Exercise in the Interplay between Myokines, Hepatokines, Osteokines, Adipokines, and Modulation of Inflammation for Energy Substrate Redistribution and Fat Mass Loss: A Review (2020) · cites this paper as [248]

    In “Adaptive metabolic leukocyte activation” (page unavailable), the paper says M1-biased macrophages are thought to be a major source of inflammatory cytokines in obese adipose tissue. “Inflammation: a link between obesity and metabolic disease” (page unavailable) identifies TNFα as an M1 marker and describes a concurrent increase in TH1 cells. It does not specify IL-1β or IL-6 secretion by M1 macrophages, or say that macrophage-secreted chemokines drive the influx of activated CD4+ TH1 cells. (LLM, conf=0.84)

  • Proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-1β exacerbate insulin resistance, while anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-4 and IL-10 promote insulin sensitivity.

    “Proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-1β exacerbate insulin resistance [20], while anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-4 and IL-10 promote insulin sensitivity [248].”
  • In some studies, habitual short sleep duration has been found to be unrelated to WBC counts, NK-cell activity, and telomere length.

    “in some of those studies, habitual short sleep duration has been found to be unrelated to WBC counts (156, 405), NK-cell activity (391), and telomere length (451)”

    From The Sleep-Immune Crosstalk in Health and Disease (2019) · cites this paper as [405]

  • Based on objective sleep assessment through actigraphy, elevated WBC counts in a sample of almost 1,100 elderly individuals were associated with lower sleep efficiency and higher nocturnal wake time in women only; this association held after controlling for age, obesity, and hypertension.

    “Based on objective sleep assessment through actigraphy, elevated WBC counts in a sample of almost 1,100 elderly individuals were associated with lower sleep efficiency and higher nocturnal wake time in women only; this association held even after controlling for various confounders, such as age, obesity, and hypertension”

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.
