Oxidative Stress and Epigenetic Regulation in Ageing and Age-Related Diseases
Recent statistics indicate that the human population is ageing rapidly. Healthy, but also diseased, elderly people are increasing. This trend is particularly evident in Western countries, where healthier living conditions and better cures are available. To understand the process leading to age-associated alterations is, therefore, of the highest relevance for the development of new treatments f...
متن کاملOxidative Stress in Neurodegenerative Diseases and Ageing
Since Denham Harman has proposed the free radical theory of ageing, the knowledge and the understanding of the mechanisms of ageing process have increased remarkably. Over decades, this unavoidable phenomenon has also been linked, both causatively and consequently, with the development of several abnormalities, currently known as the “agerelated diseases.” Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longev...
متن کاملAge-related epigenetic regulation in the brain and its role in neuronal diseases
Accumulating evidence indicates many brain functions are mediated by epigenetic regulation of neural genes, and their dysregulations result in neuronal disorders. Experiences such as learning and recall, as well as physical exercise, induce neuronal activation through epigenetic modifications and by changing the noncoding RNA profiles. Animal models, brain samples from patients, and the develop...
متن کاملAutophagy and ageing: implications for age-related neurodegenerative diseases.
Autophagy is a process of lysosome-dependent intracellular degradation that participates in the liberation of resources including amino acids and energy to maintain homoeostasis. Autophagy is particularly important in stress conditions such as nutrient starvation and any perturbation in the ability of the cell to activate or regulate autophagy can lead to cellular dysfunction and disease. An ar...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation in allergic diseases and related studies
Asthma, a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airway, has features of both heritability as well as environmental influences which can be introduced in utero exposures and modified through aging, and the features may attribute to epigenetic regulation. Epigenetic regulation explains the association between early prenatal maternal smoking and later asthma-related outcomes. Epigenetic marks (DNA ...
