Reduction of DILP2 in Drosophila triages a metabolic phenotype from lifespan revealing redundancy and compensation among DILPs [PDF]

, 2008
The insulin/IGF-like signalling (IIS) pathway has diverse functions in all multicellular organisms, including determination of lifespan. The seven insulin-like peptides (DILPs) in Drosophila are expressed in a stage- and tissue-specific manner.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Circulating Potassium Channel Levels

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundCardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death are more frequent in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA is associated with QT prolongation, and QT prolongation is an independent risk factor for sudden cardiac death.

Incentive motivation improves numerosity discrimination in children and adolescents

Scientific Reports, 2022
We recently showed that incentive motivation improves the precision of the Approximate Number System (ANS) in young adults. To shed light on the development of incentive motivation, the present study investigated whether this effect and its underlying ...

The sensory system acts with a neuromedin U signaling pathway to mediate food type-dependent effects on lifespan [PDF]

, 2010
In order to survive, the animal uses its sensory system to interpret the complexity of its environment. Interestingly, a subset of sensory neurons, which function in taste or olfaction, has been found to influence the lifespan of C.

Mitochondrial uncoupling and lifespan [PDF]

Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, 2010
The quest to understand why we age has given rise to numerous lines of investigation that have gradually converged to include metabolic control by mitochondrial activity as a major player. That is, the ideal balance between nutrient uptake, its transduction into usable energy, and the mitigation of damaging byproducts can be regulated by mitochondrial ...

The evolution of aging and lifespan [PDF]

Trends in Genetics, 2023
Aging is a nearly inescapable trait among organisms yet lifespan varies tremendously across different species and spans several orders of magnitude in vertebrates alone. This vast phenotypic diversity is driven by distinct evolutionary trajectories and tradeoffs that are reflected in patterns of diversification and constraint in organismal genomes. Age-
