Re: [CR] Post from sci.life-extension/older cronies

[Guest guest]

For us older cronies, one of these abstracts sounded like good news: The

" DR " referred to in the partial abstract means: dietary restriction

Dietary Restriction Initiated in Late Adulthood Can Reverse Age-related

Alterations of Protein and Protein Metabolism

...............Taking all these findings together, it is

conceivable that DR conducted in old age can be beneficial not only to

retard age-related functional decline but also to restore

functional activity in young rodents. Interestingly, recent evidence that

involves DNA array gene expression analysis supports the

findings on the age-related decrease in protein turnover and its reversion

by late-onset DR.
