Intergenerational effects of dietary restriction on insulin/IGF signaling and reproductive development
2018-06-08
Abstract excerpt
The roundworm C. elegans transiently arrests larval development to survive extended starvation ( 1 ), but such early-life starvation reduces reproductive success ( 2, 3 ). Maternal dietary restriction (DR) buffers progeny from starvation, increasing reproductive success ( 4 ). It is unknown why early-life starvation decreases reproductive success and how maternal diet modifies this process. We show here that e...
