Abstract excerpt
When cultured in axenic medium, Caenorhabditis elegans shows the largest life-span extension compared with other dietary restriction regimens. However, the underlying molecular mechanism still remains elusive. The gene cbp-1, encoding the worm ortholog of p300/CBP (CREB-binding protein), is one of the very few key genes known to be essential for life span doubling under axenic dietary restriction (ADR). By using...
