Inflammation and premature aging in advanced chronic kidney disease.

TLDR
Systemic inflammation in end-stage renal disease can impair the resilience of the body to external and internal stressors by reduced functional and structural tissue reserves, and by impairing normal organ crosstalk, thus providing an explanation for the greatly increased risk of homeostatic breakdown in this population.
Abstract
Systemic inflammation in end-stage renal disease is an established risk factor for mortality and a catalyst for other complications, which are related to a premature aging phenotype, including musc...

Inflammation-Related Mechanisms in Chronic Kidney Disease Prediction, Progression, and Outcome.

TL;DR: The recent knowledge regarding the relationship between inflammation and CKD is summarized, highlighting the current proteomic approaches, as well as the inflammasomes and gut microbiota dysbiosis involvement in the setting of CKD, culminating with the troubling bidirectional connection between CKD and renal malignancy.

Chronic inflammation in end-stage renal disease and dialysis.

TL;DR: Novel strategies to increase the removal of large middle molecules, such as expanded haemodialysis, may be an opportunity to decrease the inflammatory allostatic load associated with retention of middle molecular weight uraemic toxins.

Inflamm-ageing: the role of inflammation in age-dependent cardiovascular disease

TL;DR: Recent findings in the pathophysiology of inflamm-ageing are discussed, results from clinical trials targeting its components and the potential implementation of these advances into daily clinical practice are discussed.

Food as medicine: targeting the uraemic phenotype in chronic kidney disease.

TL;DR: The authors discuss the mechanisms by which food and specific nutrients could affect the uraemic phenotype in chronic kidney disease (CKD), and suggest that a food-as-medicine approach could potentially be used to prevent and treat CKD and its complications.

The Hallmarks of Aging

TL;DR: Nine tentative hallmarks that represent common denominators of aging in different organisms are enumerated, with special emphasis on mammalian aging, to identify pharmaceutical targets to improve human health during aging, with minimal side effects.

Origin and Physiological Roles of Inflammation

TL;DR: This work has shown that tissue stress or malfunction induces an adaptive response that is intermediate between the basal homeostatic state and a classic inflammatory response, which is referred to here as para-inflammation.

Naturally occurring p16 Ink4a -positive cells shorten healthy lifespan

TL;DR: It is shown that compared to vehicle alone, AP20187 treatment extended median lifespan in both male and female mice of two distinct genetic backgrounds and the clearance of p16Ink4a-positive cells delayed tumorigenesis and attenuated age-related deterioration of several organs without apparent side effects.

Four faces of cellular senescence

TL;DR: The challenge now is to understand the senescence response well enough to harness its benefits while suppressing its drawbacks.

Hypoxia and Inflammation

TL;DR: This review deals with emerging evidence of an association between systemic or local hypoxia and inflammation in a variety of diseases and points to new ways of treating inflammatory disorders or conditions such as certain cancers with intralesional Hypoxia.
