This resembles the phenotypic characteristics of genetically normal animals subjected to dietary restriction (DR). Interestingly, DR leads to further increases in insulin sensitivity and longevity in Ames dwarfs but not in GHRKO mice. It was therefore of interest to examine the effects of DR on the expression of insulin-related genes in these two types of long-lived mutant mice. The effects of DR partially overlapped but did not duplicate the effects of Ames dwarfism or GHR deletion on the expression of genes related to insulin signaling and cell responsiveness to insulin. Moreover, the effects of DR on the expression of the examined genes in different insulin target organs were not identical. Some of the insulin-related genes were similarly affected by DR in both GHRKO and normal mice, some were affected only in GHRKO mice and some only in normal animals. This last category is of particular interest since genes affected in normal but not GHRKO mice may be related to mechanisms by which DR extends longevity.</p>","PeriodicalId":87437,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary topics in gerontology","volume":"35 ","pages":"69-82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000096556","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"26328817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mechanism underlying this phenomenon is still unknown though a number of different, nonmutually exclusive explanations have been proposed.

Some examples include the altered lipid composition model, the immune response model and models describing changes in endocrine function. In this paper we propose the hypothesis that metabolic reprogramming is the key event in the mechanism of dietary restriction, and the physiological effects at the cellular, tissue and organismal level may be understood in terms of this initial event.</p>","PeriodicalId":87437,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary topics in gerontology","volume":"35 ","pages":"18-38"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000096554","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"26328818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 1987, the National Institute on Aging began the first well-controlled long-term study in a species with a considerably longer life span and a closer physiology to humans. Using rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta), an extensive array of physiological measures have been conducted in both males and females to evaluate the effects of DR. Monkeys benefit from DR with a lower body weight, body fat, blood glucose and thus are at lower risk for developing diabetes. Changes in several endocrine measures indicate an altered hormonal axis; however, circadian patterns and timing relative to the onset of DR can obscure the differences. Despite the caloric deficit, female monkeys are not reproductively compromised, and both males and females may benefit immunologically. There remains much to be learned from this model of DR including whether long-term DR will increase life span in a primate species.","PeriodicalId":87437,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary topics in gerontology","volume":"35 ","pages":"137-58"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000096560","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"26386906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Underlying the beneficial effects of DR is the attenuation of system-wide inflammatory processes including those occurring within the central nervous system. During normal aging a progressive neuroinflammatory state builds in the brain involving astrocytes and microglia, the primary cellular components of neuroinflammation. DR attenuates the age-related activation of astrocytes and microglia with concomitant beneficial effects on neurodegeneration and cognition. Increasing evidence suggests that common pathways are emerging that link many normal aging inflammatory processes with age-related diseases such as Alzheimer, cancer, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.</p>","PeriodicalId":87437,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary topics in gerontology","volume":"35 ","pages":"83-97"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000096557","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"26328819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
