Calorie restriction up-regulates the plasma membrane redox system in brain cells and suppresses oxidative stress during aging

Hyun, Dong-Hoon, Emerson, Scott S., Jo, Dong-Gyu, Mattson, Mark P., De Cabo, Rafael

The plasma membrane (PM) contains redox enzymes that provide electrons for energy metabolism and recycling of antioxidants such as coenzyme Q and α-tocopherol. Brain aging and neurodegenerative...

The SIRT1 Deacetylase Suppresses Intestinal Tumorigenesis and Colon Cancer Growth

Firestein, Ron, Blander, Gil, Michan, Shaday, Oberdoerffer, Philipp, Ogino, Shuji, Campbell, Jennifer, ...

Numerous longevity genes have been discovered in model organisms and altering their function results in prolonged lifespan. In mammals, some have speculated that any health benefits derived from...

Conserved and Differential Effects of Dietary Energy Intake on the Hippocampal Transcriptomes of Females and Males

Martin, Bronwen, Pearson, Michele, Brenneman, Randall, Golden, Erin, Keselman, Alex, Iyun, Titilola, ...

The level of dietary energy intake influences metabolism, reproductive function, the development of age-related diseases, and even cognitive behavior. Because males and females typically play...

Nrf2 mediates cancer protection but not prolongevity induced by caloric restriction

Pearson, Kevin J., Lewis, Kaitlyn N., Price, Nathan L., Chang, Joy W., Perez, Evelyn, Cascajo, Maria Victoria, ...

Caloric restriction (CR) is the most potent intervention known to both protect against carcinogenesis and extend lifespan in laboratory animals. A variety of anticarcinogens and CR mimetics induce...

In Vitro Cellular Adaptations of Indicators of Longevity in Response to Treatment with Serum Collected from Humans on Calorie Restricted Diets

Allard, Joanne S., Heilbronn, Leonie K., Smith, Carolina, Hunt, Nicole D., Ingram, Donald K., Ravussin, Eric, ...

Calorie restriction (CR) produces several health benefits and increases lifespan in many species. Studies suggest that alternate-day fasting (ADF) and exercise can also provide these benefits....
