pH Neutralization Protects Against Reduction in Replicative Lifespan Following Chronological Aging in Yeast
(Cell Cycle, 2012)Chronological and replicative aging have been studied in yeast as alternative paradigms for post-mitotic and mitotic aging, respectively. It has been known for more than a decade that cells of the S288C background aged ... -
Quantitative determination of isopentenyl diphosphate in cultured mammalian cells
(Analytical Biochemistry, 2012)Isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP), an intermediate of the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway (IBP), has several important biological functions, yet a method to determine its basal level has not been described. Here, we describe ... -
Dietary restriction and mitochondrial function link replicative and chronological aging in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Experimental Gerontology, 2012)Chronological aging of budding yeast cells result in a reduction in a subsequent replicative life span through unknown mechanisms. Here, we show that dietary restrictions during chronological aging delays the reduction ... -
Yeast Replicative Aging; A Paradigm for Defining Conserved Longevity Interventions
(FEMS Yeast Research, 2014)The finite replicative life span of budding yeast mother cells was demonstrated as early as 1959, but the idea that budding yeast could be used to model aging of multicellular eukaryotes did not enter the scientific ... -
mTOR Inhibition by Rapamycin Alleviates Mitochondrial Disease in the Ndufs4-Mouse Model of Leigh Syndrome
(Science, 2013)Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to numerous health problems, including neurological and muscular degeneration, cardiomyopathies, cancer, diabetes, and pathologies of aging. Severe mitochondrial defects can result ...
