NF-κB in premature aging
consequence of a stochastic process caused by the accumulative effect of damaged molecules. However, recent experimental evidences have extended this view and suggested that aging also requires active signaling programs for the maintenance of the aged state [1]. Beyond cell-autonomous alterations, age signals get systemic through changes in intercellular communication pathways [2]. The identifi...
متن کاملPremature and accelerated aging: HIV or HAART?
Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has significantly increased life expectancy of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive population. Nevertheless, the average lifespan of HIV-patients remains shorter compared to uninfected individuals. Immunosenescence, a current explanation for this difference invokes heavily on viral stimulus despite HAART efficiency in viral suppression. W...
متن کاملOvarian aging and premature ovarian failure.
Physiological reproductive aging occurs as a result of a decrease in the number and quality of oocytes in ovarian cortex follicles. Although the reason for the decrease in the quality of the pool and follicular oocytes is not fully understood, endocrine, paracrine, genetic, and metabolic factors are thought to be effective. Nowadays, in order to understand the mechanisms of ovarian aging, genom...
متن کاملAllostasis and Emotion
The recently-described Stress Repair Mechanism (SRM) automatically repairs and maintains vertebrate body structure, but it lacks the ability to adjust to changing environmental circumstances. Therefore its operation cannot explain allostasis, which refers to the ability of vertebrates to adapt to changing environmental allostatic load by altering their hormonal and physiological reactions. Allo...
متن کاملSex, stress and the hippocampus: allostasis, allostatic load and the aging process.
The adaptive responses of the body that maintain homeostasis in response to stressors can be called "allostasis", meaning "achieving stability through change". Mediators produced by the immune system, autonomic nervous system (ANS) and hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal(HPA) axis produce allostasis. The brain also shows allostasis, involving the activation of nerve cell activity and the release of n...
