activation-induced apoptosis in t cells: effect of age and caloric restriction
نویسندگان
چکیده
we have previously shown that the proliferative response of t cells to antigenic or mitogenic stimulus decreased with age and that caloric resection (cr) attenuated the age-related decline in proliferation and il-2 expression. because activation-induced apoptosis is known to regulate cell proliferation and eliminate the high number of activated cells during an immune response, it was of interest to determine what effect aging or cr has on activation-induced apoptosis in t cells. splenic t cells isolated from young (6-month) and old (25-month) mice fed ad libitum (control group) and from old (24-month) mice fed a restricted diet (40% caloric restriction) that began at 6 weeks of age. t cells were stimulated with superantigen staphylococcal enterotoxin b (seb) or anti-cd3 antibody (primary stimulus) for 72 to 96 h, followed by restimulation with anti-cd3 (secondary stimulus). activation-induced apoptosis was assessed by dna fragmentation assay and the expression fas/cd95 and fas-ligand (fas-l) was measured by flow cytometry. we found that the amount of dna fragmentation was significantly (p<0.05) increased in the stimulated and restimulated t cells from old control mice and old caloric restricted mice compared to young control mice. the increase in dna fragmentation with age was paralleled with an increase in the proportion of the cells expressing fas and fas-l. however, cr had no significant effect on the age-related increase in dna fragmentation, fas, or fas-l expression. we also measured the bcl-2 and bax protein level and found that the level of bcl-2 decreased and bax increased with age and that cr had no effect on the age-related changes in the level of bcl-2 or bax protein. these results demonstrate that aging but not cr alters activation-induced apoptosis in mice t cells.

Introduction: Fasting, like Islamic Ramadan Fasting, has been associated with health benefits. Islamic Ramadan fasting, a form of caloric restriction (CR) or alternate day fasting that. Studies suggest a comparable effect of ADF and caloric restriction. Despite the fact that fasting can be considered as a form of dietary restriction, fasters tend to have difficulty to reduce their food intake d...
متن کامل[Effect of caloric restriction on longevity].
Calorie restriction (CR) is the most evaluated nutritional intervention to increase lifespan in a variety of animal species, including human beings. CR has also been shown to delay the onset or reduce the incidence of many age-related diseases. The mechanism that could explain the effect of calorie intake on aging is related to the reduction of body fat and insulin signaling as well as reactive...

متن کاملMolecular Links between Caloric Restriction and Sir2/SIRT1 Activation
Ageing is the most significant risk factor for a range of prevalent diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Accordingly, interventions are needed for delaying or preventing disorders associated with the ageing process, i.e., promotion of healthy ageing. Calorie restriction is the only nongenetic and the most robust approach to slow the process of ageing in evolutionari...
