These observations prompted a crazy 🤪 gambit - what if counteracting #glucocorticoid signalling before #cortisol levels spike (say, at middle age) could prevent or slow down the onset of aging phenotypes? 🤔 8/11

Fig. 4 Species variation in relative g lucocor ticoid abundance. (A) For four out of the five species tested, the release rate of corticosterone was lower than the release rate of cortisol. In D. tinctorius , corticosterone was released 1.64 times more than cortisol. Larger dots indicate the mean for each group. Smaller dots represent individual samples (NS = not significant, * = P < 0.05, ** = P < 0.001, *** = P < 0.0001). (B) The species names correspond to the respective photos beneath the x -axis labels. The tree below the photos indicates the #phylogenetic relationships between species (Guillory et al. 2019 ).

We discovered that the "orphan" nuclear receptor Nur77 binds DNA under regulation by #glucocorticoid receptor & glucocorticoids. The synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone directly interacts with Nur77, revealing a new function for this drug & a potential ligand for Nur77.

A and B) C57BL/6J mice were treated with 0.1 IU ACTH via subcutaneous injection. Serum corticosterone (A) and Δcorticosterone (B) levels were measured before and 1 hour after the ACTH test (n = 6). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Statistical testing using 2-tailed unpaired Student’s t test. (C) C57BL/6J mice were challenged with CLP (25G, full ligation) for different times (0, 3, 24, 48 hours). Serum corticosterone and IL-6 levels were measured (n = 6–9). (D and E) C57BL/6J mice were challenged with CLP (25G, full ligation) for different times (0, 3, 24, 48 hours). Then, the mice were treated with 0.1 IU ACTH. Serum corticosterone (D) and Δcorticosterone (E) levels were measured before and 1 hour after the ACTH test (n = 6). (F and G) C57BL/6J mice were challenged with CLP for different times (0, 3, 24, 48 hours). Then, mice were treated with 4 IU ACTH. Serum corticosterone (F) and Δcorticosterone (G) levels were measured before and 1 hour after the ACTH test (n = 7–9). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Statistical testing using 1-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple-comparison correction. (H and I) C57BL/6J mice were challenged with or without CLP for 3 hours (H) and stimulated with ACTH (4 IU) or PBS for 45 minutes (I). GC synthesis–related gene expression in the adrenal gland was analyzed by RNA-seq analysis. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Statistics using 2-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple-comparison correction. NS, no significance; *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ****P < 0.0001. For RNA-seq analysis, pairwise comparisons between the various conditions were run using a negative binomial generalized log-linear model through the glmLRT fit function in edgeR (https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/edgeR.html).
