Aging: fruit flies break the chain to a longer life.

Current biology : CB - 13 Oct 2009

Linford Nancy J, Pletcher Scott D

Abstract excerpt

Mitochondria have long had an enigmatic role in the biology of aging. New research in Drosophila reveals an evolutionarily conserved function for the mitochondrial electron transport chain in the modulation of animal lifespan.
