Dietary restriction suppresses proteotoxicity and enhances longevity by an <i>hsf‐1</i> ‐dependent mechanism in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
10 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt
Dietary restriction increases lifespan and slows the onset of age-associated disease in organisms from yeast to mammals. In humans, several age-related diseases are associated with aberrant protein folding or aggregation, including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases. We report here that dietary restriction dramatically suppresses age-associated paralysis in...
