Longevity as a matter of housekeeping
intense investigation into the causes of aging, molecular mechanisms governing cellular longevity remain elusive, yet some possibilities are coming into focus [1,2]. It has become clear from many studies utilizing simple model systems that the aging process is multifarious and certainly involves a combination of genetic and stochastic mechanisms. The discovery of single gene mutations that infl...
متن کاملGenes that regulate both development and longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans.
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans responds to conditions of overcrowding and limited food by arresting development as a dauer larva. Genetic analysis of mutations that alter dauer larva formation (daf mutations) is presented along with an updated genetic pathway for dauer vs. nondauer development. Mutations in the daf-2 and daf-23 genes double adult life span, whereas mutations in four other ...
متن کاملSignaling pathways that regulate cell division.
Cell division requires careful orchestration of three major events: entry into mitosis, chromosomal segregation, and cytokinesis. Signaling within and between the molecules that control these events allows for their coordination via checkpoints, a specific class of signaling pathways that ensure the dependency of cell-cycle events on the successful completion of preceding events. Multiple posit...
متن کاملEnzymatic pathways that regulate endocannabinoid signaling in the nervous system.
Chemical signals, or neurotransmitters, represent the fundamental mode for intercellular communication in the nervous system. The classical model for neurotransmitter action involves the uptake and storage of these small molecules into synaptic vesicles, release of vesicular contents into the synaptic cleft in response to depolarization of the presynaptic terminal by an action potential, bindin...
