Aging, proteotoxicity, mitochondria, glycation, NAD+ and carnosine: possible inter-relationships and resolution of the oxygen paradox
It is suggested that NAD+ availability strongly affects cellular aging and organism lifespan: low NAD+ availability increases intracellular levels of glycolytic triose phosphates (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone-phosphate) which, if not further metabolized, decompose spontaneously in...
