Remote tissue conditioning − an emerging approach for inducing body-wide protection against diseases of ageing

Highlights • Mild stress to a tissue elicits an endogenous response that enhances its resilience. • Two examples are brief ischemia and photobiomodulation with low-intensity light. • For both stresses, protection appears to spread beyond the site of application. • This phenomenon of indirect protect...

Summary:Highlights • Mild stress to a tissue elicits an endogenous response that enhances its resilience. • Two examples are brief ischemia and photobiomodulation with low-intensity light. • For both stresses, protection appears to spread beyond the site of application. • This phenomenon of indirect protection is termed “remote tissue conditioning” (RIC). • RIC holds promise for prevention or treatment of chronic age-related diseases.
