Age-related changes in the regulation of transcription factor NF-κB in rat brain

TLDR
A significant up-regulation in the constitutive, nucleus-located NF- κ B binding activity was observed in 30- month-old Wistar rats compared to young and 18-month-old rats, which may be related to the NF-κ B driven cellular response to adapt neurons against apoptotic pressure, as observed recently in several apoptotic conditions.

Molecular inflammation: underpinnings of aging and age-related diseases.

TL;DR: The purpose of this review is to describe the molecular roles of age-related physiological functional declines and the accompanying chronic diseases associated with aging to provide insights into potential interventions that may affect the aging process and reduce age- related diseases, thereby promoting healthy longevity.

Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor α Activation Modulates Cellular Redox Status, Represses Nuclear Factor-κB Signaling, and Reduces Inflammatory Cytokine Production in Aging

TL;DR: The administration to aged mice of agents capable of activating the α isoform of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPARα) was found to restore the cellular redox balance and suggest that PPARα and the genes under its control play a role in the evolution of oxidative stress excesses observed in aging.

Activation of innate immunity system during aging: NF-kB signaling is the molecular culprit of inflamm-aging.

TL;DR: The conclusion is that NF-kB signaling seems to be the culprit of inflamm-aging, since this signaling system integrates the intracellular regulation of immune responses in both aging and age-related diseases.

Oxidative stress and vascular inflammation in aging

TL;DR: Lifestyle attitudes such as caloric restriction and exercise training appear as effective ways to overcome defective antioxidant response and inflammation, favoring successful vascular aging and decreasing the risk for cardiovascular disease.

Suppression of TNF-α-Induced Apoptosis by NF-κB

TL;DR: In this paper, the sensitivity and kinetics of TNF-α-induced apoptosis were shown to be enhanced in a number of cell types expressing a dominant negative IkappaBalpha (Ikappa-BalphaM).

Aging, energy, and oxidative stress in neurodegenerative diseases.

TL;DR: Potential therapeutic approaches include glutamate release inhibitors, excitatory amino acid antagonists, strategies to improve mitochondrial function, free radical scavengers, and trophic factors, which appear promising in experimental studies and are now being applied to human studies.

Nuclear Factor Kb: An Oxidative Stress-Responsive Transcription Factor of Eukaryotic Cells (A Review)

TL;DR: The evidences that NF-kappa B is an oxidative stress-responsive transcription factor of higher eukaryotic cells are discussed, including that antioxidants not only suppress the activation of NF- kappa B by H2O2 but by all other inducers tested so far.

Genetic analysis of ageing: Role of oxidative damage and environmental stresses

TL;DR: The goal here is to seek evidence for common mechanisms among diverse organisms amenable to genetic analysis and oxidative damage is a candidate for such a public mechanism of ageing.
