glaucostegi, Orchispirium heterovitellatum Madhavi et Rao, 1970, Myliobaticola richardheardi Bullard et Jensen, 2008, Electrovermis zappum Warren et Bullard, 2019. Blood flukes infecting batoids are further unique by having a curving testis. That is, the blood flukes infecting species within Selachii are morphologically distinct from those infecting species within the Batoidea (excluding Gymnurahemecus bulbosus Warren et Bullard, 2019). Based on the morphological similarity, we suspect that the new species shares a recent common ancestor with O. glaucostegi. The discovery of the new species brings the total number of chondrichthyan blood flukes to 11 species assigned to nine genera.Physiological stresses, such as pathogen infection, are detected by "cellular Surveillance Activated Detoxification and Defenses" (cSADD) systems that trigger host defense responses. Aging is associated with physiological stress, including impaired mitochondrial function. Here, we investigated whether an endogenous cSADD pathway is activated during aging in C. elegans. We provide evidence that the transcription factor ZIP-2, a well-known immune response effector in C. elegans, is activated in response to age-associated mitochondrial dysfunction. ZIP-2 mitigates multiple aging phenotypes, including mitochondrial disintegration and reduced motility of the pharynx and intestine. AZD-5462 mouse Importantly, our data suggest that ZIP-2 is activated during aging independently of bacterial infection and of the transcription factors ATFS-1 and CEBP-2. Thus, ZIP-2 is a key component of an endogenous pathway that delays aging phenotypes in C. elegans. Our data suggest that aging coopted a compensatory strategy for regulation of aging process as a guarded process rather than a simple passive deterioration process.BACKGROUND We aimed to investigate the association between physical activity and successful aging among middle-aged and older adults and study how this association changes with age and time. RESULTS The mean score of Newcastle-Ottawa Scale assessment was 8.0±0.8. Physically active middle-aged and older adults were more likely to age successfully than sedentary adults (OR=1.64, 95%CI 1.40-1.94). The effect of physical activity was stronger in the younger group (OR=1.71, 95%CI 1.41-2.08) than on the older group (OR=1.54, 95%CI 1.13-2.08). However, the protective effect of physical activity reduced annually by approximately 3%. CONCLUSIONS Physical activity promotes successful aging among middle-aged and older adults especially in the younger population. Being physically active at middle and old age is beneficial to successful aging. METHODS We searched for the relevant studies in three online databases Pubmed, Web of Science, and Embase. Fifteen community-based cohort studies were included. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale assessment Form was used for quality assessment. Overall, 189,192 participants aged 43.9-79.0 years were analyzed. The odds ratio for successful aging of the most physically active group compared with sedentary group was analyzed. Subgroup analysis was conducted by age group. Univariate Meta-regression was performed according to follow-up years.Topical retinol application effectively reduces the effects of photoaging and improves skin condition, e.g. influences the process of keratinization of the epidermis, which improves stratum corneum structure and reduces transepidermal water loss. However, cosmetics use lower concentrations of retinol, which has been associated with emerging hypersensitivity reactions as well as redness and irritation of the skin. The question arises whether the vehicle used in the cosmetic may be important in stimulating the inflammatory reaction in the skin and if the concentration of retinol used could significantly affects the growth of epidermal cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different concentrations of liquid crystal retinol (0.15%, 0.3% and 0.5%) on the clinical and histological characteristics of a reconstructed epidermis skin model. It also compares the effectiveness of 0.3% retinol formula in liquid crystal to that in lipid. The study used reconstructed human epidermis tissue containing n expression IL-6. In addition, EGF expression was found to correlate significantly with the retinol concentration of the liquid crystal formula 0.5% > 0.3% > 0.15% (P less then 0.05). Lower concentrations may increase TGM1 expression, thus enhancing the formation of a protective layer of cornified envelope.Macrophages play important roles in acute and chronic inflammation. Upon their activation, they secrete a variety of mediators, including eicosanoids, nitric oxide and cytokines, which play different roles in the stimulation and resolution of inflammatory processes. There is a continuous search for selective modulators of these processes. Natural polyphenols and polyphenol-rich extracts have been found to possess preventive and therapeutic potential, including by their anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, the inhibition of the formation of inflammatory mediators by the spent hops extract (SHE), a polyphenol-rich extract from Humulus Lupulus L., was examined using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- activated murine macrophages (RAW 264.7). The SHE suppressed inter alia the interleukin-6 (IL-6) mRNA expression to 32% in LPS-activated macrophages and to 61% at a protein level (at 25 μg/mL). SHE reduced both the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA expression to 47% and their protein expression to 32%. Not only did SHE inhibit the IL-6 and COX-2 levels but also decreased both inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) protein expression to 2% at 25 μg/mL and nitric oxide (NO) production for all tested concentrations. The inhibited expression of these inflammatory molecules was likely caused by the reduced activity of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). Both mRNA and protein expression of NF-κB was decreased to 38% and 42%, respectively. These results provide the first evidence that SHE decreases the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and inflammatory mediators, which merits further studies to investigate the potential of SHE as anti-inflammatory preparation.
