Abstract
Life activities are supported by the intricate metabolic network that is fueled by nutrients. Nutritional and genetic studies in model organisms have determined that dietary restriction and certain mutations in the insulin signaling pathway lead to lifespan extension. Subsequently, the detailed mechanisms of aging as well as various nutrient signaling pathways and their relationships have been investigated in a wide range of organisms, from yeast to mammals. This review summarizes the roles of nutritional and metabolic signaling in aging and lifespan with a focus on amino acids, the building blocks of organisms. We discuss how lifespan is affected by the sensing, transduction, and metabolism of specific amino acids and consider the influences of life stage, sex, and genetic background on the nutritional control of aging. Our goal is to enhance our understanding of how nutrients affect aging and thus contribute to the biology of aging and lifespan.
期刊介绍：
The Annual Review of Genetics, published since 1967, comprehensively covers significant advancements in genetics. It encompasses various areas such as biochemical, behavioral, cell, and developmental genetics, evolutionary and population genetics, chromosome structure and transmission, gene function and expression, mutation and repair, genomics, immunogenetics, and other topics related to the genetics of viruses, bacteria, fungi, plants, animals, and humans.
