Epigenetic regulation of caloric restriction in aging
The molecular mechanisms of aging are the subject of much research and have facilitated potential interventions to delay aging and aging-related degenerative diseases in humans. The aging process is frequently affected by environmental factors, and caloric restriction is by far the most effective and established environmental manipulation for extending lifespan in various animal models. However...
متن کامل[Caloric restriction and anti-aging].
エレガンス線虫の寿命は約 3 週間で寿命の遺伝学的解 析に適している.研究室で実験に使っている野生型線虫 (N2)は,20°C で飼育すると,最大寿命が 21 日前後な ので,10 日目には中年特有の表現系を示すことが知ら れている.実際,顕微鏡で観察すると,10 日目には消 化管の周りの脂肪組織が急に黒ずんで目立つようにな る.この症状は脂肪細胞にトリグリセライドの蓄積が増 加するためで,ヒトにおける中年太りの内臓脂肪の蓄積 によく似た症状である. 代表的な長寿線虫,daf-2 変異体は最も遺伝解析が進 んでいる変異体である.daf-2 線虫は耐性幼虫(dauer) になりやすいことから daf(dauer formation,耐性幼虫 化)シリーズの名前が付いている.しかし,運動やリズ ムは正常で,一定温度(高温)で飼育する限り,耐性幼 虫化せずに,寿命は 1.5 倍~2 倍に延...
متن کاملEffect of aging and anti-aging caloric restriction on the endocrine regulation of rat liver autophagy.
Autophagy is a process that sequesters and degrades altered organelles and macromolecular cytoplasmic constituents for cellular restructuring and repair, and as a source of nutrients for metabolic use in early starvation it may be involved in anti-aging mechanisms of caloric restriction. The effects of 40% daily dietary restriction (DR) and intermittent feeding (EOD) on the age-related changes ...
متن کاملMetabolic reprogramming, caloric restriction and aging.
Caloric restriction (CR) without malnutrition slows the aging process and extends lifespan in diverse species by unknown mechanisms. The inverse linear relationship between calorie intake and lifespan suggests that regulators of energy metabolism are important in the actions of CR. Studies in several species reveal tissue-specific changes in energy metabolism with CR and suggest that metabolic ...
متن کاملCaloric restriction and aging: controversial issues.
It has long been held that food restriction extends the life span of rodents and other species by decreasing caloric intake and slowing the rate of aging. Recent findings challenge these concepts. This review assesses these controversial issues. The conclusion is that caloric restriction underlies the life extension of rats, but not of Drosophila. Mortality characteristics show that food restri...
