Longevity, lipids and C. elegans
Scientific investigation of mechanisms that determine lifespan can be divided into three general approaches. The first approach (the comparative method) began over a century ago comparing species differing greatly in maximum longevity and implicated a role for the speed of metabolism in determining the length of life [1]. The second approach commenced after the 1930s investigated the mechanisms...
متن کاملVisible Light Promoted Allylic C–H Oxidation
A mild and efficient one-pot visible light-induced method has been developed for the allylic oxidation. The oxidation of allylic systems has played a prominent role in this context as possibly the most widely applied C–H functionalization, owing to the utility of enones. The allylic C–H oxidation is relatively simple and predictable, even on a preparative scale, because active species generated...
متن کاملC. elegans as a premier longevity and aging model
and aging model Aging studies in mammals are challenging owing to relatively long life spans and a limited set of genetic tools that are capable of assessing the genome-wide changes associated with disease. By contrast, C. elegans lives for only 2-3 weeks and is easily propagated in culture, facilitating rapid genetic analyses. Genetic resources for C. elegans include hundreds of publicly avail...
متن کاملCell cycle controls stress response and longevity in C. elegans
Recent studies have revealed a variety of genes and mechanisms that influence the rate of aging progression. In this study, we identified cell cycle factors as potent regulators of health and longevity in C. elegans. Focusing on the cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (cdk-2) and cyclin E (cye-1), we show that inhibition of cell cycle genes leads to tolerance towards environmental stress and longevity. T...
متن کاملMetabolic Rate Regulates L1 Longevity in C. elegans
Animals have to cope with starvation. The molecular mechanisms by which animals survive long-term starvation, however, are not clearly understood. When they hatch without food, C. elegans arrests development at the first larval stage (L1) and survives more than two weeks. Here we show that the survival span of arrested L1s, which we call L1 longevity, is a starvation response regulated by metab...
