In the past 27 years, we have found that this cycling sugar modification of proteins — called O -
linked N - acetylglucosamine, or O - GlcNAc — is nearly as common as protein phosphorylation and often competes with it at the same or proximal sites on proteins to regulate nearly every
cellular process in response to nutrients and
stress.
Also noted by IER studies are an increase in the expression levels of silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1), an NAD + - dependent deacetylase.20 The expression of SIRT1, also increased by prolonged ER in rodents, is
linked to the up - regulation of
cellular stress resistance and improved outcomes in animal models of metabolic, neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases.106, 107These findings have been suggestively accompanied by improvements in resilience to disease progression in rodent models of Type 1 diabetic nephropathy 20, survival following induced ischaemic injury 21 and a reduction in oxidative
stress.105
What's more examination of several
stress - related biomarkers in caregivers suggest that regular practice may be
linked to less inflammation, and improved
cellular immunity.
When mice are genetically modified to lose Nrf2 function, they also lose many of the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits of isocyothianate exposure, further
linking cruciferous vegetables and Nrf2.41 Studies even suggest that Nrf2 is required to gain the beneficial effects of isocyothianates, connecting the benefits of exercise, fasting, periodic ketogenesis, and healthy
cellular stresses with vegetable and spice consumption, as they all can
stress our cells and engage Nrf2.42
