Abstract excerpt
Work, initially in Caenorhabditis elegans and then more recently in fruit flies and mice, has suggested that anti-aging mutations extend life span by simultaneous activation of pathways that protect cells from multiple forms of injury. This "multiplex stress resistance" theory suggests a number of new avenues for investigation of the genetic and cellular controls that influence organismic longevity within and...
