A correlation is known to exist in yeast and other organisms between the cellular resistance to stress and the life span. The aim of this study was to examine whether stress treatment does affect the generative life span of yeast cells. Both heat shock (38 degrees C, 30 min) and osmotic stress (0.3 M NaCl, 1 h) applied cyclically were found to increase the mean and maximum life span of Saccharo...
BACKGROUND aging is under genetic control in C. elegans, but the mechanisms of life-span regulation are not completely known. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate various aspects of development and metabolism, and one miRNA has been previously implicated in life span. RESULTS here we show that multiple miRNAs change expression in C. elegans aging, including novel miRNAs, and that mutations in several ...
BACKGROUND A vast body of research has demonstrated that disease susceptibility and offspring health can be influenced by perinatal factors, which include both paternal and maternal behavior and environment. Offspring disease risk has the potential to affect the health span and life span of offspring. KEY FINDINGS Various maternal factors, such as environmental toxicant exposure, diet, stress...
We examine the inbreeding load for adult life span and mortality rates of two seed beetle species, Callosobruchus maculatus and Stator limbatus. Inbreeding load differs substantially between males and females in both study populations of C. maculatus--life span of inbred females was 9-13% shorter than the life span of outbred females, whereas the life span of inbred males did not differ from th...
Postreproductive life span remains a puzzle for evolutionary biologists. The explanation of increased inclusive fitness through parental care after reproduction that applies for humans is unrealistic for many species. We propose a new selective mechanism, independent of parental care, which relies on the hypothesis that postreproductive life span can evolve as an insurance against indeterminacy...
Calorie restriction (CR) has been known for more than 70 years to extend life span and delay disease in rodent models. Metformin administration in rodent disease models has been shown to delay cancer incidence and progression, reduce cardiovascular disease and extend life span. To more directly test the potential of metformin supplementation (300 mg/kg/day) as a CR mimetic, life-span studies we...
Aging in S. cerevisiae is exemplified by the fixed number of cell divisions that mother cells undergo (termed their life span). We have exploited a correlation between life span and stress resistance to identify mutations in four genes that extend life span. One of these, SIR4, encodes a component of the silencing apparatus at HM loci and telomeres. The sir4-42 mutation extends life span by mor...
Life span is an idealized, species-specific biologic parameter that quantifies maximum attainable age under optimal environmental conditions. Historical anecdote suggests that human life span has remained constant at 110 to 115 years for at least the past 20 centuries. In contrast, life expectancy describes an empirical estimate of typical longevity under prevailing or predicted circumstances. ...
