Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We clarified how phytochemicals regulated the relationship between functions of mitochondria/autophagy and cell survival/death with morphological, immunohistochemial and biochemical analyses. Resveratrol(RSV) suppressed mitochondria/autophagy functions in naive (tumorigenic) PC12 cells, resulting in cell death, but activated these functions in differentiated (neuronalin nature) PC12 cells, enhancing cell survival. LC3 was found necessary for such RSV functions. Cordyceps militaris (CM) extended significantly lifespan of stroke-induced Dahl salt-sensitive hypertensive rats through reducig the mitochodria/autopahgy-related functions in neurons of the central nervous system and activating these functions in respective cells in heart, kidney and liver. CM extract and copdycepin, a specific CM ingredient, influenced PC12 cells, in a manner similar to RSV. The effects of these phytochemicals will be expected to extend healthy lifespan in humans.
