Abstract

A major system of neuroimmunomodulation is the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis, acting through glucocorticoids and their intracellular signaling components, exerting both stimulatory and inhibitory effects on the immune reaction. Glucocorticoids inhibit the production of proinflammatory cytokines by interacting with nuclear transcription factors (nuclear factor [NF]-kappaB, activated protein [AP]-1) and induce the production of several anti-inflammatory cytokines by gene activation. In some cells and/or in extreme stress conditions, apoptosis is evoked. In most processes related to neuroimmunomodulation a prominent role is emerging for mitochondria. These organelles generate more than 90% of the cell's energy requirements through oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), which is regulated by several agents, including steroid and thyroid hormones. These hormones are inducers of nuclear and mitochondrial OXPHOS gene transcription and they exert a primary action not only on nuclear but also on mitochondrial genes by way of cognate receptors. Recently, additional nuclear transcription factors involved in neuroimmunomodulation have been detected in mitochondria (NF-kappaB, AP-1, p53, calcium/cAMP response element binding protein [CREB]), and binding sites of these and putative binding sites of other nuclear transcription factors have been identified in the mitochondrial genome. The interaction of these factors with mitochondrial regulatory proteins, with receptors and…

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

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

  • Hormone-responsive elements are also found in nuclear genes encoding mitochondrial transcription factors that modulate OXPHOS gene expression.

    “tThese hormone-responsible elements are also found in nuclear gene encoding mitochondrial transcription factors that also modulate OXPHOS gene expression (Psarra et al., 2006).”
  • Appropriate receptors can interact with these sequences to induce hormone-dependent mitochondrial gene expression.

    “The appropriate receptors can interact with these sequences to induce hormone-dependent mitochondrial gene expression (Psarra et al., 2006).”

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.
