Acute-stress impairs cytoprotective mechanisms through neural inhibition of the insulin pathway
2018-04-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Persistent activation of the “fight-or-flight” response accelerates aging and increases the susceptibility to disease. We show that repeated induction of the C. elegans flight response inhibits conserved cytoprotective mechanisms. This acute-stress response activates neurons that release tyramine, the invertebrate analog of adrenaline/noradrenaline. Tyramine stimulates the DAF-2/Insulin/IGF-1 p...
