Mini Review
Modulation of Nutrient-Responsive Pathways in Lifespan and Health
Author(s): Charalampos Frisardi*
Studies in bio gerontology are driven by cellular, tiny invertebrate and vertebrate models. Our understanding of
the connection between nutrition, nutrient-response signalling pathways, and lifespan control has greatly expanded
because to the use of many models, including yeasts, suitable tissue culture cells, Drosophila, the worm Caenorhabditis
elegant, and the mouse. In recent years, high-throughput screens, mutagenesis, combinatorial pharmacological
therapies, and multi-omics methods have all contributed to the discovery of previously unheard-of understandings
of cellular metabolism, differentiation, and ageing. Hence, in order to find potential therapies that might promote
healthy ageing and the amelioration of age-related disorders in humans, scientists are working to characterise the
intricate architecture and interactions of growth and stress network.. View more»
