Objective: To investigate the role of IGF1 and SIRT1 pathways in protection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced aging in H9c2 rat cardiomyocyte cells by testosterone.
Methods: The cells were treated with testosterone or up- or down-regulated for the IGF1 and SIRT1 genes and assessed for apoptosis, aging and expression of relevant genes.
Results: Aging was induced and the expression of SIRT1 and IGF1 was down-regulated after H2O2 treatment in H9c2 cells. The aging was attenuated in a dose-dependent manner after the cells were exposed to testosterone. Down-regulation of SIRT1 and IGF1expression was offset in the H2O2-treated cells co-treated with testosterone. Up- or down-regulation of IGF1 significantly reduced or increased senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) cells and the ROS level, respectively. In addition, SIRT1 expression was regulated by IGF1 expression. Down- or up-regulation of SIRT1 significantly decreased or increased the IGF1 levels, respectively. Furthermore, after IGF1 and SIRT1 knockdown, testosterone did not protect the cells from senescence. Testosterone, and overexpression of IGF1 and SIRT1 also up-regulated the expression of the fetal genes SERCA2 and MYH6 and down-regulated the expression of the ACTA1 and MYH7 genes.
Conclusions: Our data indicate that testosterone can attenuate cardiomyocyte aging induced by H2O2 and up-regulate SIRT1 and IGF1. The IGF1and SIRT1 pathway may be new targets to treat heart aging and heart failure.

Purpose Of The Review: Osteosarcopenia is a geriatric syndrome associated with disability and mortality. This review summarizes the key microRNAs that regulate the hallmarks of sarcopenia and osteoporosis. Our objective was to identify components similarly regulated in the pathology and have therapeutic potential by influencing crucial cellular processes in both bone and skeletal muscle.

Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) inhibits growth hormone (GH) intracellular signaling for the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) synthesis via the janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription proteins (STATs) pathway. The aim of this study was to compare SIRT1 concentrations in children with GH deficiency (GHD) and so-called idiopathic short stature (ISS, non-GH deficient), in order to determine the possible impact of changes in serum SIRT1 concentrations on the GH-IGF-1 axis. The study group included 100 short-stature children: 38 with GHD and 62 with ISS (maxGH in two stimulation tests <10 and ≥10 ng/mL, respectively).

Adolescence is characterized by increased vulnerability to addiction and ethanol (EtOH) toxicity, particularly through binge drinking (BD), a favored acute EtOH-ingestion pattern among teenagers. BD, highly pro-oxidant, induces oxidative stress (OS), affecting skeletal muscle (SKM), where selenium (Se), an antioxidant element and catalytic center of selenoproteins, is stored, among other tissues. Investigating the effects of Se supplementation on SKM after BD exposure holds therapeutic promise.

Phototherapy has been extensively used to prevent and treat signs of aging and stimulate wound healing, and phototherapy through light-emitting diodes (LEDs). In contrast to LED, organic LED (OLED) devices are composed of organic semiconductors that possess novel characteristics. We investigated the regenerative potential of OLED for restoring cellular potential from senescence and thus delaying animal aging.

Background: Understanding growth regulatory pathways is important in aquaculture, fisheries, and vertebrate physiology generally. Machine learning pattern recognition and sensitivity analysis were employed to examine metabolomic small molecule profiles and transcriptomic gene expression data generated from liver and white skeletal muscle of hybrid striped bass (white bass Morone chrysops x striped bass M. saxatilis) representative of the top and bottom 10 % by body size of a production cohort.
