Epigenetics and Oxidative Stress in Aging

Abstract: Aging is a multifactorial process characterized by the progressive loss of physiological functions, leading to an increased vulnerability to age-associated diseases and finally to death. Several theories have been proposed to explain the nature of aging. One of the most known identifies the free radicals produced by the mitochondrial metabolism as the cause of cellular and DNA damage. However, there are also several evidences supporting that epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation, noncoding RNAs, an… Show more

“…Numerous research studies suggest that oxidative stress has an important role in the process of aging. Accumulation of oxidative damage to cell and tissue over the lifespan leads to aging . Several evidences show that antioxidant supplements including resveratrol, are useful in delaying the aging process .…”

“…The current advancement in precision medical research has paved the way to explore aging and epigenetic modification of aging-related genes [35]. For instance, serum levels of LEP were found to be high in aging and obesity-related diseases like obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and Alzheimer's disease [36,37].…”

“…Oxidation of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) due to Ten-Eleven Translocation (TET) proteins leads to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) formation which is deaminated to 5hydroxymethyluracil and then replaced with unmethylated cytosine [68]. Oxidative stress can also inhibit the NAD + dependent deacetylase SIRT1 that controls inflammatory responses, lipid storage, telomerase activity, mitochondrial respiration and ROS production [69,70]. In this context, a highfat/glucose diet that decreases NAD + content can negatively regulate Sirtuin activity.…”
